Berberine is a natural alkaloid with therapeutic use in metabolic syndrome, Type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia.
Berberine is present in several plants such as Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), Oregon grape (Berberis aquifolium), Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) and Chinese Goldthread (Coptis chinensis).
Features
Berberine is poorly absorbed across the gut wall and therefore high doses must be taken to achieve therapeutic results. Our unique orthomolecular formula provides a significantly higher Berberine coefficient of absorption and utilization.
- Uses a highly researched specialized support blend to significantly increase berberine absorption
- Targets control of blood sugar by activating adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase or AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and by increasing expression of insulin receptors and therefore reducing insulin resistance
- The activation of AMPK tells the body to burn fats for energy which can also lead to weight loss
- Highly bio-available Berberine in a delayed release (DR) vegetarian capsule for maximized absorption
Benefits
- Helps control blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity
- Helps activate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) which can lead to weight loss
- May help improve conditions associated with elevated blood sugar and/or Hemoglobin A1c
