Berberis vulgaris
This bitter tonic contains berberine, a powder antibacterial compound that can also stimulate the secretion of bile. Used as a digestive aid, it is particularly useful in cases of poor fat digestion and assimilation, biliousness, acid indigestion, and constipation. Barberry bark is also often used against gallstones. Its anti-microbial activity can make it effective against infections of the gastrointestinal or urinary tract due. Barberry bark can also make an effective liver tonic and alterative, helping to purify the blood by promoting proper elimination of metabolic wastes. It is great internally and externally for skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. Well-strained, it can be used as an eyewash for conjunctivitis and eye infections as well. In large doses, barberry will act as a purgative.

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
