Juniper berries, also known as Juniperus communis, are commonly mistaken to be berries, which they aren’t at all. Juniper berries are female seed cones that become juniper plants - a type of conifer which is a cone-bearing plant or tree. Juniper plants can grow low and wide like a shrub or tall like a tree. They have unique fleshy, merged scales that make them look like a berry. Juniper berries are also commonly used as a bitter spice, in gin, for example. 

Juniper berries can be used to help contain antioxidants and help prevent disease, as well as to help improve skin conditions including rashes, eczema, and vitiligo. Juniper berries are also sometimes used as a natural antiseptic with antibacterial and antifungal properties and may also help to improve digestion and number of hours of restful sleep. Juniper berries are also good for one’s heart health and can be included as part of a diabetic diet plan.

Along with the numerous health benefits that juniper berries hold, they are also commonly used in cooking as stated previously. Used most often as a spice, juniper berries can be purchased either dried or fresh, and whole or crushed. It is frequently used to flavor meat dishes or used in sauces for a pungent flavor.

Juniper berries typically have no side effects, but should not be used by anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding. There is also the possibility of one having an allergic reaction to juniper berries.

As is the case with taking any supplement while you are pregnant or breastfeeding or taking medication, you should always consult with your healthcare professional prior to usage.
