Vitals uses a highly pure extract from the roots of the Berberis aristata species, also known as Indian barberry or tree turmeric.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlants containing berberine have been used for thousands of years in India, China, Japan, and many other countries. Since the 1950s, berberine has also been isolated as a compound and used as a dietary supplement. Over the past twenty years, scientific interest has grown enormously, with approximately 200 published articles on berberine appearing annually.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsorption of berberine\u003cbr\u003eA portion of berberine remains in the gastrointestinal tract. It does not affect beneficial bacteria and can therefore be excellently taken before or combined with a probiotic. After absorption through the intestinal mucosa, it is partly pumped back into the intestinal lumen, and partly broken down in the intestinal wall or liver. This explains why the plasma level of berberine remains low. However, studies have also shown that berberine and its metabolites are rapidly absorbed by the liver, kidneys, muscles, lungs, brain, heart, pancreas, and adipose tissue. The berberine level was found to be many times higher in most studied tissues than the blood plasma level.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClaims\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e- supports the maintenance of normal cholesterol and triglyceride levels*\n- is good for the heart and blood vessels*\n- contributes to the maintenance of healthy\/normal\/natural blood sugar levels*\n- is good for the liver*\n* = Health claim awaiting approval by the European Commission\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" cellspacing=\"2\" style=\"width:450px\"\u003e\t\u003ctbody\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition per daily dose of 1 capsule:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eBerberine-HCL\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e500 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBerberine hydrochloride (berberine extracted from Berberis aristata, root), anti-caking agent (rice fibers), vegetable capsule (pullulan, from fermented cassava starch), sunflower oil (Helianthus annuus).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eTake 1-3 capsules daily with a meal with water or as advised.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Storage advice \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore dry, sealed, and at room temperature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResponsible for marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVitals BV\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis product is a dietary supplement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo not exceed the recommended dosage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important.
