The Key Ingredients, and Why They Are In Here
Berberine (as Berberine HCl, from Berberis aristata root) is a bitter, yellow plant alkaloid with a long history of use in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic herbal practice. It is found across a family of plants, including goldenseal, Oregon grape, barberry, and Berberis aristata, the source used here. Berberine has become one of the most studied botanical compounds for supporting healthy blood sugar and insulin levels already in the normal range, healthy metabolic function, and cardiovascular wellness.*
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a versatile compound that the body uses as a cofactor in cellular energy production and as a uniquely dual water and fat-soluble antioxidant. Sometimes called the “antioxidant of antioxidants,” it also supports the regeneration of other key antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, CoQ10, and glutathione.* ALA complements berberine’s metabolic support story by providing antioxidant defense across the body’s water and lipid compartments.*
