Berberine: An Advanced Berberine Complex for Metabolic and Cardiovascular Support*
Thorne’s Berberine is a unique, dual-action formula that combines two forms of the potent botanical extract berberine to support metabolic and cardiovascular health. This supplement blends standard Berberine HCl with an advanced, highly absorbable Berberine Phytosome (Berbevis®). This combination is designed to maintain healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels, support a healthy body weight, and promote overall metabolic wellness. It’s a comprehensive choice for individuals seeking robust, research-backed botanical support.*
How It Works: A Dual-Action, High-Absorption Formula*
This formula provides both gut-focused and systemically-available berberine for a full spectrum of benefits.*
Support for Gut and Metabolic Health
The formula includes Berberine HCl, the form used in many clinical studies. It is effective for supporting a healthy balance of gut microbes and providing benefits within the GI tract. However, standard berberine is not easily absorbed into the bloodstream. For this reason, Thorne has included the advanced Berberine Phytosome. This form binds the berberine extract to phospholipids, which increases its absorption by up to 10 times.*
Promoting Healthy Blood Sugar and Cholesterol
Once absorbed, berberine works by activating the metabolic enzyme AMPK. This helps to support insulin sensitivity and maintain healthy blood sugar levels. In addition, it supports cardiovascular health by helping to maintain already normal levels of LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. The enhanced absorption of the phytosome form ensures a clinically effective amount of berberine reaches the cells to provide these systemic benefits.*
