I produced a video for NutritionFacts.org that discussed a clinical trial of barberries for acne. Teenagers randomized to take about a teaspoon of dried barberries, roughly eight cents’ worth, three times a day for a month experienced a dramatic 45 percent drop in inflamed pimples compared to the placebo control group.2622 That’s great news for zits, but what about barberries for weight loss?
