OREGON GRAPE ROOT HERBAL TINCTURE

Oregon Grape Root is not botanically related to the endangered goldenseal, but for many uses Oregon grape serves as an excellent alternative; they both contain the immune-stimulating, infection-fighting, antiseptic constituent berberine. Herbs that contain berberine are scientifically proven to protect against bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

No matter how you use it, Oregon grape root is a strong antimicrobial. Oregon grape root has been used to address minor to severe infections for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

Today herbalists use Oregon grape root for all kinds of infections, eye infections, vaginal infections, wounds on the skin, mouth infections, inflammatory bowel conditions, infectious diarrhea (e.g., giardia and other parasites), infections in the upper digestive tract (h. pylori), urinary tract infections, sore throats.

As a bitter it is a cooling, draining and detoxifying herb.

Because Oregon grape root cools, drains and detoxifies, it will be most effective when matched to a person who has hot, moist and possibly stagnant conditions.

Another area that Oregon grape root shines is as an hepatic, or as an herb for the liver.

In western herbalism most bitter herbs are considered to have some effect on the liver and the gallbladder. The bitter taste on the tongue stimulates saliva, which then creates a whole cascade of digestive functions and digestive enzymatic secretions.

Part of the bitter taste reflex is to promote the secretion of bile from the liver and the gallbladder, which helps with digestion, mainly in digesting fats.

Oregon Grape Root can be used in skin washes to deter the over production of skin cells that occurs in placque psoriasis.  Oregon grape root contains tannins that ease inflammation, irritation, and itching of the skin.

Summary

Oregon grape root excels at treating infections and optimizing a sluggish liver. Its specific considerations are for heat with discharge or moist conditions. It is most often formulated, although it can be used as a simple especially when used for infections. This is abundant and incredibly important herbal medicine.
