Full Description
Berberine is a plant-based compound found in several different plants, including barberry and goldenseal. Berberine's health-promoting benefits come primarily from its chemical structure as an alkaloid, which increases its antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Berberine promotes longevity by activating the AMPK pathway which senses each cell's energy status and triggers responses that help to maintain the cell's energy at its optimum level. By stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis, berberine activates genes similar to those typically turned on by exercise.
Perhaps best known for it's blood sugar stabilizing properties, both animal and human studies have demonstrated berberine's ability to support glucose metabolism and help maintain healthy blood sugar levels in those who are already in the normal range.
Additional health benefits of berberine include:
- Immune system support
- Promoting cardiovascular health
- Supporting healthy liver function
- Brain health support
- Aiding in weight loss
A Power-Packed Trio: Berberine, NMN and Trans-Resveratrol
The longevity and health benefits of berberine can become even more powerful when combined with NMN and trans-resveratrol. Both NMN and trans-resveratrol activate the expression of sirtuins – genes that regulate cellular homeostasis and repair DNA – while both berberine and trans-resveratrol activate the AMPK pathway. Together this powerful trio offers a wealth of longevity and overall health benefits.
Usage Directions
- Suggested Daily Use: Take 1 capsule, two times daily. For longevity purposes, take with a fat-containing meal, five (5) days on and two (2) days off or as directed by your health care practitioner.
- Storage: Store at room temperature. Protect from light, heat and humidity. May be refrigerated. Close tightly after each use. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
- Note: Do not use if tamper-evident seal is broken or missing.
- Caution: For adults only. Do not take when pregnant or breast feeding. If you're currently taking any medications, it's important to speak with your doctor or health care provider before taking berberine due to the risk of interactions and low blood sugar levels.
