Juniper Berry

Juniper berry is the fruit of the juniper bush (Juniperus communis), which is primarily found in Europe, Asia, and North America. These small, blue berries are known for their aromatic properties and are often used in the production of gin. The juniper berry has a long history as a flavoring agent, but also as an herb in traditional medicine and foods.

Traditionally, juniper berry is used in various culinary applications, such as marinades and sauces. Additionally, it is often employed in herbal remedies, where it is known for its refreshing and stimulating properties. For animals such as dogs, chickens, and horses, juniper berry can be an interesting addition to their diet, provided it is in moderate amounts. It can help promote digestion and support overall health.

In dogs, juniper berry is sometimes used to support the urinary tract, while for chickens it can contribute to better resistance. For horses, it can help maintain healthy digestion. However, it is important to always consult a veterinarian before adding new ingredients to the diet of pets or animals.
