Berberis, 60 capsules, extract with a high dose of 490mg berberine, stimulates sugar metabolism, lowers cholesterol, and blood pressure
Berberis is a plant native to Asia, where it is traditionally used for weight loss, to lower blood sugar levels, and to curb appetite. The active ingredient in the Berberis plant, berberine, is currently being intensively researched. Some studies suggest that berberine increases insulin sensitivity and thereby lowers blood sugar levels, which is important in type 2 diabetes. Berberine is also said to reduce fat deposits and lower cholesterol.
