MECHANISM OF ACTION 
Research Suggests
Juniper (Juniperus communis) fruit:
Juniper is a European tree that is part of the Cupressaceae family. Juniper is known for its antimicrobial activity which is contained in the leaves of the plant. Juniper has also been shown to act as a diuretic agent and therefore promotes the formation of urine by the kidney.1,2 Juniper’s diuretic effect is through it’s aquaretic effect which increases urine volume but does not cause the excretion of electrolytes.

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) leaf:
Taraxacum officinale, commonly known as dandelion, possesses choleretic, diuretic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is the sesquiterpenes lactones that are responsible for the diuretic effect of dandelion and may also be contributing to the mild anti-inflammatory effect. Recent pharmacological studies investigating the health promoting effects of dandelion have been promising. It is believed to aid in glucose modulation and promotes the flow of bile into the intestine. Dandelion may also provide treatment to counteract water retention.3,4,5,6
