Enzymedica - Berberine Blood Sugar Metabolism Support - 60 Capsules

Enzymedica Berberine from Barberry Seeds provides support for blood sugar metabolism. Berberine is an alkaloid found in many plants, but most notably in goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), barberry (Berberis vulgaris), Oregon grape (Berberis aquifolium), and goldthread (Coptis chinensis). These plants have a long history of use in supporting health. Berberine can be produced from various plant parts (e.g., seed, bark, root, etc.). Enzymedica's Berberine is a sustainable product produced from the seeds of barberry (Berberis vulgaris ).

Enzymedica Berberine Benefits:

• Promotes a healthy microbiome
• Balances intestinal function
• Supports cardiovascular health
• Helps maintain healthy blood sugar balance

Why Enzymedica?

• Sustainable and preferred source of berberine from the seeds of barberry (Berberis vulgares).
• Enteric-coated to prevent self-aggregation and formation berberine crystals that reduce absorption.

Enzymedica's Berberine is provided in a targeted delivery capsule to prevent the breakdown of the capsule and subsequent release of berberine in the stomach. This type of capsule is recommended for berberine as in an acidic environment berberine will bind with other berberine molecules to form insoluble complexes that do not get absorbed. Prevention of the formation of these complex are thought to possibly double the absorption of berberine

The Science
Berberine has been extensively studied in clinical trials for positively influencing normal blood sugar, lipids, and hypertension. Recently, the Journal of Ethnopharmacology published a detailed review of the 27 clinical studies with berberine in these disorders that provided clear answer questions on its safety and efficacy.

Berberine has also been examined as a weight loss aid in two double-blind clinical trials. In one study, 37 men and women with metabolic syndrome were given 300 mg of berberine three times per day for three months. The body mass index (BMI) levels dropped from 31.5 to 27.4. In another study, 500 mg of berberine three times per day caused an average of 5 pounds of weight loss over a 12-week period.
