Berberine is a potent AMPK (adenosine monophosphate protein kinase) activator in the body. AMPK is known as the ‘metabolic master switch’ due to its significant role in regulating blood sugar levels, blood pressure, healthy cholesterol levels and body composition. AMPK can be activated naturally through calorie restriction and exercise as well as with berberine. When used correctly, berberine can be an effective AMPK activator and offers other significant health advantages.
However, standard berberine supplementation may have limited results for some, as oral bioavailability can be compromised due to influences of the gut microbiome or missed doses from required frequency of use. Natroceutics® Berberine has been developed using specialised liposomal delivery technology which overcomes the challenges of regular berberine supplementation while remaining scientifically validated.
