What is barberry root?
The berries of barberry plants are highly nutritious. They are particularly rich in vitamin C, containing over 200% of the daily value (DV) for vitamin C in just a quarter cup serving.
That same serving also contains about 15% of the DV for iron, which makes the berries a very good plant-based source of iron. Other notable nutrients include zinc, manganese, copper, and antioxidants known as anthocyanins.
The roots of barberry aren't particularly high in vitamin C or other essential nutrients, but they do contain valuable plant compounds known as alkaloids.
The most prominent alkaloid in barberry is known as berberine. It acts as a powerful antioxidant.
