500mg of pure Berberis aquifolium, standardized to 97% berberine for powerful antimicrobial action, digestive support, and blood sugar control.
Indicated as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, digestive aid, and protective agent against blood sugar imbalance and insulin resistance.
Berberine is a plant alkaloid with several powerful medicinal properties. It has traditionally been included as an active ingredient in extracts of goldenseal, Oregon grape, and barberry to provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial actions and digestive support. However, more recently, its isolation and powerful application for blood sugar control, insulin resistance, and cholesterol management have become evident.
Regarding the antimicrobial actions of berberine, research has shown that it effectively combats bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. It achieves these antimicrobial actions through multiple mechanisms, including inhibition of microbial growth, endotoxin formation, bacterial adhesion, and viral replication. This allows for a truly broad-spectrum approach for patients with dysbiosis, chronic infections, or exposure to multiple pathogenic microbes.
Berberine has a particularly beneficial affinity and action in the gastrointestinal tract. Evidence has shown that berberine can effectively treat the symptoms of bacterial diarrhea and intestinal parasites. In addition, berberine can improve the integrity of tight junctions in the gastrointestinal tract and, therefore, positively affect intestinal permeability. Finally, berberine may regulate gastrointestinal motility and increase the intestinal production of butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid that provides fuel and anti-inflammatory support in the colon.
Regarding metabolic function, research has uncovered berberine's broad application for regulating insulin and blood sugar levels. Double-blind, placebo-controlled studies using berberine in people with health conditions have shown that it can reduce fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance, hemoglobin A1c, triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL measurements. Remarkably, these effects are considered comparable to oral hypoglycemic medications. People with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease also experienced comparable improvements in lipids, body mass index, and insulin resistance, with significant improvements in liver fat content.
