Thorne Berberine 500

**Berberine** is a natural plant alkaloid that helps regulate metabolism and support healthy blood sugar control. Preliminary studies indicate that berberine activates AMPK, a “master switch” of metabolism that boosts fat burning and reduces fat storage. It has also been observed to help lower triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, improving cardiovascular risk factors, and to enhance insulin sensitivity and reduce fasting blood sugar in people with elevated levels.

Berberine may also promote a healthy gut microbiome. Each capsule contains 500 mg of berberine HCl. It is recommended to take one capsule twice per day with food. Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are taking medications.
