Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Berries have a long history of traditional use in supporting various aspects of health, including the glandular (endocrine) system, although the evidence is largely indirect. In many traditional medicine systems, such as Traditional Chinese Medicine and Native American herbalism, various types of berries (e.g., elderberry, goji berry, Schisandra berry) are believed to nourish the body, boost vitality, and support glandular function. These uses are often based on observations of overall vitality and wellness rather than specific clinical outcomes. The high content of vitamins (especially vitamin C), polyphenols, and antioxidants in many berries may offer general support for the body's resilience and stress response, which is linked to adrenal and other glandular functions. However, scientific studies specific to "unspecified berries" and direct effects on the glandular system are lacking. While some individual berries have been studied for their adaptogenic or hormone-modulating effects (e.g., Schisandra on adrenal glands), there is no broad scientific consensus or strong clinical evidence that berries as a general group directly support the glandular system. Thus, the use of berries for this purpose is primarily rooted in traditional beliefs and practices, rather than robust scientific validation.
