Who Should Consider Berberine Supplementation?
Berberine is often chosen by adults looking to support a healthy metabolism, especially those managing their weight or aiming to maintain normal cholesterol and blood sugar levels. It can be particularly helpful for individuals with a diet high in carbohydrates or sugars, as berberine may encourage more efficient nutrient processing. However, it is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, and those on medication should consult a health care professional before uses.
What Is Himalayan Berberine?
Berberine is a naturally occurring alkaloid found in several plants, including Berberis aristata (Indian barberry), which grows in the Himalayan foothills. NAOMI Himalayan Berberine contains HIMABERB® – a patented water-extracted berberine HCl with over 97% purity and no fillers or excipients. This traditional botanical has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine and is now available in a highly concentrated, bio-available form.
Key Benefits of HIMABERB® Berberine
HIMABERB berberine has been studied in a human clinical trial and shown to support several aspects of metabolic health. It may help maintain healthy fasting lipid levels, including LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, when already within the normal range. Berberine works via the AMPK pathway – the body’s cellular energy sensor that encourages efficient fat metabolism and energy production. This makes it a popular choice for those seeking to support overall metabolic function and balanced energy levels throughout the day.*
Additional benefits may include supporting normal blood sugar levels and promoting cardiovascular wellness through lipid balance.*
