Avoid detrimental to PKD/PLD. Juniper berries may cause kidney damage, convulsions and DNA damage. Juniper berries are used in herbal medicine, and also to flavor certain foods and gin. Allergic reactions including itching, rash, swelling and difficulty breathing are known to occur. If you are pregnant, do not consume juniper berries as this could cause you to miscarry.
