Berberine & metabolic health

A recent systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials on berberine highlighted some compelling benefits associated with this popular nutritional supplement for metabolic health.

HOP Box contains dihydroberberine in the form of GlucoVantage®, which is 5x more bioavailable than traditional berberine. This means that more of berberine’s “secret sauce” can get straight to your cells! So, what’s all the fuss about berberine anyway?

What is metabolic health? Let’s break it down.

In simple terms, metabolic health is a measure of how well your body processes and uses energy from the food you eat. When you are in good metabolic health, your body can efficiently convert nutrients into energy, maintain stable blood sugar levels, and regulate hormones. Good metabolic health means that your body’s systems are working harmoniously to keep you feeling your best, reducing your risk of diseases like type 2 diabetes, kidney disease, stroke, and heart disease.

So, how can berberine boost metabolic health?

1. Improved lipid profiles. Berberine significantly reduced triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL (bad cholesterol), while increasing HDL (good cholesterol). This suggests a strong potential for heart health and cholesterol management.
   
   
2. Enhanced glucose metabolism. Participants experienced improved insulin resistance and lower fasting plasma glucose levels, marking berberine as a potent ally against type 2 diabetes.
   
   
3. Safe and effective: This review confirmed that berberine alone could effectively manage many metabolic conditions, positioning it as a potential alternative to conventional treatments.

Why this matters

Managing metabolic health is key to longevity and vitality. Incorporating scientifically-backed ingredients like berberine into your daily routine can significantly improve your long-term wellness and promote healthy aging.
