Berberine is a natural phytotherapeutic extracted from the roots, stalks, rhizomes, and bark of Phellodendron chinense and Rhizoma coptidis.
Easily found as a capsule supplement, berberine has the following benefits:
Improves gut microbiota Berberine has an antimicrobial effect and inhibits the proliferation of harmful bacteria in the intestine.
Controls diabetes Studies in animals who took berberine supplements showed that this phytotherapeutic helped in the production of a molecule that carries sugar from blood to the inside of cells, lowering glycemia. If you have diabetes, talk to your doctor beforehand.
