[MPWG] need info on juniper berries large spiked ones one on flat cedar looking leaves

[Emanuela Appetiti]

Juniper medicinal properties are already mentioned in the treatises
by Hippocrates (5th/4th c. B.C), Dioscorides and Pliny (1st c. AD). We
have databases with the information about medicinal uses of plants in
the ancient Mediterranean, therefore we could retrieve the info about
juniper. 

Please, contact the Institute off list, if you wish to have
more information, at: info at medicaltraditions.org [5] 

Thanks and best,
