60 capsules | Capsules | Barberry aristata | United States of America
Berberine Phytosome® by Enzymedica combines high-quality berberine from Indian barberry (Berberis aristata) with innovative phytosome technology for exceptionally high absorption. While standard berberine extracts are often poorly absorbed, Berbevis® Phytosome provides up to 9.6 times greater bioavailability than regular berberine extracts. This means a lower dose is needed, so a small, easy-to-swallow capsule is enough.
What is berberine?
Berberine is a natural alkaloid found in various plants, including Indian barberry, goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) and Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium). Berberine has been used in traditional herbal medicine for centuries. Scientific interest is now growing rapidly too, with extensive research into the role of berberine in blood sugar levels* and general health.
The extract used in Berberine Phytosome® comes from the roots of Berberis aristata and is standardised to 28–34% berberine. The formula also contains supporting ingredients such as grape seed extract and pea protein, which contribute to better absorption and tolerability.
The benefits of Berbevis® Phytosome
Berberine is known to be difficult for the body to absorb. That is why Enzymedica uses Berbevis® Phytosome technology. This binds berberine to natural phospholipids, allowing it to be absorbed more efficiently by the body. According to human pharmacokinetic research, this technology provides almost ten times greater bioavailability compared with standard berberine extracts.
Thanks to this improved absorption, Berberine Phytosome® offers a potent formula at a low dose in a small, easy-to-swallow capsule.

Extra information
Food supplement. A varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important. This food supplement is not a substitute for a varied diet. Consult your doctor, pharmacist or therapist before use if you are taking medication, have a medical condition, are pregnant or are breastfeeding. Experiencing side effects? Stop use, let us know and consult your doctor. Not suitable for children unless specifically stated.
The use of products containing berberine is not recommended during pregnancy. Berberine may also interfere with the absorption of tetracycline and related antibiotics. Berberine significantly inhibits CYP3A enzymes in humans. These enzymes are important for breaking down many medicines. Berberine may therefore reduce the body's ability to break down these medicines, increasing their effects. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking berberine alongside medication.
