Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Juniper

Metabolic Effect: Juniper is known for its diuretic properties and can help remove edema from the body. Thanks to its antioxidant content, it helps prevent cell damage.
Consumption Recommendation: Juniper can be consumed by brewing it as tea or added to dishes as a spice. However, excessive consumption should be avoided.
Things to Consider: Pregnant women and people with kidney disorders should consult a doctor before consuming juniper. Long-term and high-dose use may cause some side effects.
Exercise Equivalent: Since juniper is low in calories, very little activity is sufficient to burn the calories in 100 grams. A light walk of about 49 minutes will be sufficient.
