Berberine may be having a moment in the wellness world, but it’s far from new. This potent plant compound has been used medicinally for over 3,000 years, with roots in both Ancient Chinese medicine and Ayurveda. Today, its resurgence in popularity comes with good reason. Modern research continues to validate what traditional practices have long known: berberine offers a wide range of benefits—especially when it comes to metabolic health.
What Is Berberine?
Berberine is a naturally occurring compound found in several plants, including Goldenseal, Oregon Grape, and Berberis, a vibrant yellow shrub native to parts of Asia and Europe. While it was once prized as a natural dye, its true value lies in its ability to support key functions throughout the body.
At humann, we source a clinically-studied form of this powerful botanical for our SuperBerine Metabolism and Blood Sugar Support Capsules delivering a high-absorption berberine for more effective support than conventional berberine.
The Benefits of SuperBerine
SuperBerine is designed to deliver comprehensive metabolic health support in one easy-to-swallow, doctor-formulated capsule daily. With a clinically studied, highly absorbable form of berberine, SuperBerine helps support:
Healthy Metabolism
Berberine plays a critical role in supporting the AMPK pathway that influences how your body processes and uses energy. SuperBerine supports healthy metabolism for energy balance and vitality
Healthy Blood Sugar Levels
One of berberine’s most well-documented benefits is its support for healthy blood sugar levels. SuperBerine promotes healthy glucose metabolism, an important factor in helping to support balance blood sugar levels during the day. Supporting healthy blood sugar levels also plays a key role in long-term metabolic health and healthy aging.
Overall Cardiovascular Wellness
In addition to its metabolic benefits, berberine has been shown to support cardiovascular health by helping to support healthy cholesterol levels, a key factor in overall heart health. SuperBerine also includes olive fruit extract, a source of heart-healthy antioxidants that help reduce oxidative stress and support vascular health.
Other Benefits of Berberine
In addition to supporting metabolic health, healthy blood sugar levels, and cardiovascular wellness, berberine offers several other benefits that make it a smart choice for daily health support:
Healthy Gut Microbiome
Berberine encourages the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, helping to support a balanced microbiome.
Body Composition
By supporting metabolic efficiency and helping to regulate blood sugar levels, berberine can play a role in supporting a healthy body composition especially when paired with a balanced diet and active lifestyle.
Cellular Energy
By supporting the AMPK pathway, your body’s cellular fuel gauge, berberine helps your cells produce and use energy.
The Problem with Traditional Berberine: Poor Absorption
As powerful as berberine is, traditional forms have a major drawback: poor bioavailability. That means much of the compound may pass through your system without being fully absorbed, limiting its effectiveness.
The SuperBerine Advantage: Phytosome Delivery for 10X Absorption1
SuperBerine helps solve the absorption challenge with a clinically studied phytosome delivery system, a cutting-edge method that binds berberine to phospholipids. This pairing helps shuttle berberine through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream, where it can actually be used by the body.
This clinically studied phytosome technology delivers nearly 10X higher absorption compared to standard berberine capsules1, unlocking more effective support with every dose.
Enhanced Tolerability for Gentle GI Support
Traditional berberine supplements are known to cause mild digestive discomfort in some people. Thanks to its advanced formulation with the inclusion of grape seed extract, SuperBerine is better tolerated by the GI tract allowing you to get the full benefits of berberine without unwanted side effects.
Why SuperBerine Stands Out
At humann, we know that convenience is key to creating a lasting habit. We’ve formulated SuperBerine to deliver powerful, targeted support for your metabolic health in just one convenient capsule each day.
What Makes SuperBerine Different:
- Clinically studied form of berberine
- Nearly 10X better absorption1 than standard capsules
- Phytosome delivery system for enhanced bioavailability
- Gentle on the gut for improved tolerability
- Doctor-formulated for effective, daily support
The Bottom Line
Berberine is a time-tested, science-backed compound with powerful benefits for your metabolic health. But not all berberine supplements are created equal. With its high absorption, clinical research, and one-capsule convenience, SuperBerine by humann Metabolism and Blood Sugar support capsules make it easier than ever to help take control of your energy, balance, and wellness regime starting from the inside out.
DISCLAIMER:
1. A pharmacokinetic study shows that Berberine Phytosome improved berberine bioavailability (AUC) by nearly 10x on a molar basis and with observed dose linearity.
