SoActive® Berberine leverages phytosome technology to provide the most biologically active and effective form of Berberine. In clinical studies, it was shown to have a 9.6x higher absorption than standard Berberine. It has been clinically shown to support metabolic health, blood sugar, and hormones.*
Some botanical extracts or natural compounds have extremely poor bioavailability. In the case of Berberine, it struggles to break down in the digestive system and cross the intestinal walls to enter the bloodstream.
Phytosome technology solves this problem by compounding the Berberine with lipids and grape extract that empower the Berberine to easily break down in the gut and cross the intestinal wall to enter the bloodstream.
The phytosome matrix makes SoActive Berberine the most biologically active and effective form of Berberine.
Standard Berberine May Not Be Safe for Long-Term Use
In clinical testing, standard Berberine was shown to be cytotoxic, which means it caused cell damage. Even at lower dilutions, standard Berberine was registering cytotoxicity.
In the same clinical test, our Berberine Phytosome had ZERO cytotoxicity at all dilutions, showing it is 100% safe and beneficial to take.
