When we found out how amazing OGR (Mahonia aquifolium) is for the skin, we created an Eczema Bath Bag just to accommodate it, and you! Oregon Grape Root contains tannins and berberine that ease inflammation, irritation, psoriasis, and itching of the skin. That is why we also chose it as one of the 8 skin saving herbs found in our skin savior,  Rescue Salve... An herb that is wonderful internally as well as externally!

Oregon grape is immune-stimulating, infection-fighting, antiseptic constituent berberine. Herbs that contain berberine are scientifically proven to protect against bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

Also for PCOS...

"It is very high in berberine, and there has been a 3-month trial, where 500 mg of berberine was shown to be as effective as 500mg of metformin in regulating post-prandial blood glucose. The berberine had additional, positive side effects that were not observed with metformin. These side effects include lower triglycerides, lower overall cholesterol, and a better HDL to LDL ratio."

Since this study, berberine is used in China as an anti-diabetic agent.

Organic Oregon Grape Root

How to Use

Roots need a longer time to steep than leaves or flowers of an herb, so anywhere from 30 minutes to overnight is fine.

You may add Hibiscus Flowers and a splash of lemon juice and agave to taste.
