Berberine is a yellow-colored alkaloid compound extracted from the roots of certain plants. Studies show it can be as effective as metformin in controlling blood sugar.
How Does It Work?
It activates the AMPK enzyme in cells, accelerating metabolism and increasing glucose uptake. It also has potent anti-inflammatory properties.
Note: Always consult your doctor before starting any supplement.
