What is Berberine?

Berberine is an alkaloid found in plants, like Goldenseal, Barberry, Oregon Grape and Goldthread. It has a rich history of use in traditional herbalism for a number of common purposes, especially to boost blood sugar metabolism and promote healthy weight loss.^ Modern research now bolsters what common wisdom told us about berberine.

There are numerous research studies that support Berberine’s use as a dietary supplement. In a series of two double-blind studies, Berberine was found to be influential for healthy weight management.^1,2

The form we use comes from Berberis aristata, commonly called Indian barberry.

What Makes Enzymedica Berberine Phytosome Better?

Enzymedica’s Berberine Phytosome uses ultra absorption phytosome technology. Berberine can be difficult for the body to absorb, which makes it harder to unlock its true benefits. Berbevis® phytosome solves this problem – by boosting bioabsorption 9.6 times compared with standard raw extracts. This unlocks greater potency at a lower dose, allowing for a small, easy-to-swallow capsule.

Where other Berberine products may fall short, Enzymedica’s Berberine is formulated to deliver results! A matrix of ingredients support bioavailability while resolving the issues that raw extracts have. Pea protein is a carrier that supports absorption.^ Berberis aristata offers greater solubility than raw Berberine extracts.^ Grape seed extract supports the intestinal lining for greater tolerability.^ The result is a formula that helps keep your metabolism in balance, naturally.^

What is science saying about Berberine Phytosome?

A human pharmacokinetic study shows Berbevis® improved berberine bioavailability (AUC) by nearly 10 times on molar basis and with observed dose linearity.

Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome is made from the roots of Berberis aristata, and it is standardized to contain between 28% and 34% of Berberine.

Magnesium Ionic Magnesium is an essential nutrient with many functions in the human body:

• it helps maintain energy and combat fatigue
• it helps build and maintain bones and teeth
• it contributes to the health of nerve, muscle, and cell membranes
• it contributes to normal muscle function, including the heart
• it helps with protein manufacture
• it can help to keep some of the body’s other mineral and hormone systems in balance

One dose provides 1.7 mg active magnesium. This is about 0.5% of the recommended daily intake.

INGREDIENTS: Purified Water, Magnesium Chloride.

SUITABLE FOR

Ionic Magnesium delivers magnesium in a form that passes more directly to where it can be absorbed by the intestine. The magnesium does not need to be broken down in the stomach so is more readily available. This Ionic Magnesium supplement provides a low dose of magnesium so it is suitable for the gradual addition of the mineral in the diet.

Magnesium is readily available in a normal balanced diet. But for some people, it may not be possible to source or absorb all the magnesium they need. Correcting a magnesium deficiency could reduce tiredness and fatigue, help to restore nerve and muscle function, and support the health of bones and teeth.

High doses of magnesium can have a laxative effect. It is recommended to keep below 400mg per day unless prescribed by a practitioner.

Metabolics Ionic Iron

Iron is an essential mineral that contributes to normal energy production, normal functioning of the immune system, and contributes to normal cognitive health. Iron contributes to the formation of red blood cells that help transport oxygen around the body and also assists with the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

INGREDIENTS: Purified Water, Ferrous Sulphate, Citric Acid.

This is a highly absorbent form of liquid iron suitable for young and old alike that have difficulty swallowing capsules. Liquid iron does not appear to result in the common side effects of this compound, namely constipation.

Caution: Like all liquid iron supplements, Ionic Iron has the potential to stain teeth. To avoid the staining of teeth, use a dropper to place the liquid at the back of the tongue, away from the teeth, and wash down with water or juice.

Should you feel your teeth are stained by any liquid iron supplement, the stains are temporary and can often be removed by brushing with bicarbonate of soda.

If you have any concerns over the use of liquid iron supplements, consult your health care practitioner or consider an encapsulated supplement instead.

This liquid supplement is a blend of Super zinc sulfate and zinc chloride. Zinc sulfate and zinc chloride are highly soluble forms that have good bio-availability.

Zinc is found in all tissues of the human body. It’s involved in a considerable number of processes and functions, either directly, or as a helpful presence. Zinc plays an important role in:

• The metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and vitamin A
• Keeping the immune system working
• Protein manufacture and the maintenance of healthy skin, hair, and nails
• Muscle growth and reproductive health
• DNA synthesis and cell division
• As an antioxidant, protecting cells from oxidation damage
• Maintaining healthy bones
• Supporting cognitive performance
• Normal vision

The body is able to regulate its zinc levels so that within certain limits any excess is discarded; it only needs what it needs. A supplement is only required in cases of deficiency, or in cases of the clinical need for a specific targeted application of zinc.

The daily requirement of zinc is readily available in a balanced diet, including vegetarian diets, if they include wholegrain and pulses (such as beans and lentils). Deficiency should only arise through a lack of sufficient sources in the diet, or through problems with the body’s capacity to absorb and use zinc.

The UK recommended daily intake of zinc is 10 mg. This supplement provides 8.03 mg elemental zinc in each dose of 10 drops. Zinc supplements are thought to be better absorbed if taken between meals.

INGREDIENTS: Purified Water, Zinc Chloride, Zinc Sulphate, Citric acid.
