Metabolic support, from three plants that have been doing this for centuries.
Berberine Metabolic Support pairs a full 500 mg of berberine HCl with bitter melon and banaba leaf, two botanicals traditionally used to support healthy glucose metabolism. One capsule with a meal. That's the routine.
Why berberine
Berberine is a bright yellow compound found in plants like goldenseal, barberry, and Oregon grape, and it has a long history in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic practice. Today it's one of the most studied botanicals for metabolic health. It helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels already within the normal range, supports healthy cholesterol levels, and supports a balanced gut microbiome.*
Why bitter melon and banaba
Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) is a tropical gourd eaten and used across Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. It contains plant compounds traditionally associated with healthy glucose metabolism.* We use a concentrated 10:1 extract, so each 100 mg reflects roughly 1,000 mg of fruit.
Banaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa) is a flowering tree native to Southeast Asia, where its leaves have long been brewed as a tea. Its leaves contain corosolic acid, which has been studied for its role in healthy glucose uptake.*
Together, they round out berberine with the same focus: steady, everyday metabolic balance.*
What it supports*
- Healthy blood sugar levels already within the normal range
