Description
Oregon Grape Root is believed to be an important tool in the health food community most often used for external bacterial and fungal infections. Because it includes an anti-inflamatory compound called berberinet, it is well known for its use in treating skin conditions like Psoriasis and Atopic Dermatitis with topical creams that have this ingredient included in it.
Chinese medicine has included grape root powder for centuries to treat internal issues like Diarrhea, Irritable bowel syndrome, Abdominal pain and other Gut issues like Parasites, MRSA and Ecoli. It has also been used to help with Heartburn and Acid reflux disease and studies suggest it also could be useful with Depression and Chronic stress. It is currently agreed that grape root should not be used internally by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
