Uva Ursi (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi ) is a small woody ground cover plant that grows to approximately 2 inches to one foot high. The alternate leaves are shiny, leathery, and stay green for one to three years, before falling off. The plant also gets distinctive red berries, which is a favorite food of bears.   It has several common names, including “ Bearberry”. In Latin Uva Ursi translates to grape of the bear.

The plant grows wild in northern areas, such as Iceland, Norway, Siberia, Canada and Alaska.  Native Americans used Uva Ursi for centuries. The leaves are gathered and used to create herbal preparations, such as herb teas, herb capsules and liquid herbal extracts and tinctures. The Uva ursi leaves contain arbutin – a compound that may support its herbal actions.

Additional Information

Uva Ursi is a shrub that grows flowers and berries – the leaves are used to make medicine. Bears are particularly fond of Uva Ursi berries, which explains the Latin name, "Uva Ursi," which means "bear's grape." Uva Ursi can reduce bacteria in the urine. It can also reduce swelling (inflammation), and have a drying (astringent) effect on the tissues. Uva Ursi is used for infections of the kidney, bladder, or urethra (urinary tract infections or UTIs) and swelling (inflammation) of the urinary tract. In combination, an herbal preparation containing Uva Ursi, hops, and peppermint is used to treat people with compulsive, strangury enuresis and painful urination.
