Berberine is favored among herbalists because it may help support overall cardiovascular health. Specifically, berberine has been shown to support healthy cholesterol and glucose levels already within the normal range. This combined action sets berberine apart from other herbal supplements or specialized heart health formulas that typically focus on either glucose or cholesterol health, but not both. Give your heart an extra serving of support with this berberine supplement.
Rich Traditional Origins
Berberine- containing herbals have found a place in traditional health practices around the world. Goldenseal, for instance, was popular in Native American traditions. Phellodendron remains a valued ingredient in traditional Chinese herbal preparations. Barberry is a traditional European herbal. Found in the stems, bark and roots of these plants, Berberine is now believed to be the most instrumental ingredient behind the multi-faceted benefits of these various herbal traditions.
Science Supports Historical & Future Benefits
Today, Berberine has emerged from the shadows of its herbal carriers to gain a name for itself, regardless of its source. Thousands of studies have been published (easily searchable online) within the last decade, and they point toward new applications while providing rationale for the traditional use of Berberine-containing herbs.
How it Works & What’s to Come
Scientists now believe that many of the benefits observed with Berberine may be related to its action on an important enzyme known as AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase). AMPK is a systemic enzyme that influences how the body creates and uses cellular energy. This action has a cascading effect on a wide variety of metabolic processes, cellular health and more. AMPK activation is now believed to be the central mechanism of action behind Berberine’s benefits.

Berbine is great for improving liver health and many other benefits. This is a supplement you want if you are worried about liver health or even brain health/etc… The quality seems good. It’s also supposed to be as good as the pharmaceutical metformin they use for people with diabetes. This is an amazing supplement.

I’m still trying this, I might try to see if I can find a higher dose due to my particular situation and I just took a break to try metformin instead. I’m definitely not averse to getting it again if I can’t find a larger dose.

I take it five minutes before eating something calorie dense, like pizza, cake; so I avoid the sugar rush. Works perfectly !. Sometimes I feel like the capsule is opening too quickly and I can feel it in my throat which is awful, but this has only happened a few times.

first wanted to use this extract to help maintain good glycemic levels following a high calorie and high sugar diet, but the bonus point was to feel a stronger and healthier heart. As the body can become dependent on berberine, berberine may lose its effects after long-term use, so it is advisable to stop use after a period or not to use it daily.

recently went off medication and am taking berberine to manage my blood sugar. I haven’t noticed any effect, but my blood sugar is fine. There is nothing about the taste, the pill size is good and I am very happy with the value of this supplement for the amount you get. I take one a day. No problem with the packaging.
