Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium) root and bark

Mahonia aquifolium

Oregon grape

Digestive and microbial balance support

Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium) is an evergreen shrub native to western North America. Its root and bark naturally contain alkaloids, primarily berberine, which gives them their characteristic yellow colour.

A balanced microbial environment in the gastrointestinal tract is important for maintaining digestive stability and normal intestinal function. Botanical ingredients that support microbial balance may therefore contribute to maintaining a healthy digestive ecosystem.

Oregon grape has a long tradition of use in herbal nutrition to support digestion and microbial balance. That is why it is included in nutritional formulations aimed at supporting digestive balance and overall gut health in animals with sensitive digestion.
