Berberine HCL

Traditionally used for gastrointestinal symptoms, berberine has emerged as a potent
cardiometabolic aid with diverse benefits and mechanisms of action. It has
hypoglycemic effects, via both an inhibition of alpha-glucosidase activity and an
upregulation of insulin receptors in peripheral tissues, thereby improving insulin
sensitivity.Furthermore, it activates Nrf2, a key regulator of cellular antioxidant
defense, and attenuates glucose induced neurotoxicity, suggesting a therapeutic
potential for diabetic neuropathy.

Unique Features:

- Hypoglycemic effects via multiple mechanisms, including enhancement of insulin
  sensitivity
- Favorable effects on blood lipids, including a reduction in triglycerides, and both
  total and LDL cholesterol9
- Activates Nrf-2, a key regulator of antioxidant gene transcription and prevention
  of glucose-induced neurotoxicity
- Provides 500mg berberine HCl per capsule, the dosing strength used in clinical
  trials for glucose and lipid control
- Extracted from Berberis vulgaris (European barberry)
  Vegetarian capsule
