Berberine is a natural constituent of herbs such as goldenseal, Oregon grape, and barberry. Clinical studies have demonstrated that berberine helps to support already normal glucose and lipid metabolism.* Because berberine is known for its limited bioavailability, this product includes caprate (C10, a medium-chain triglyceride) to promote optimal absorption and maintenance of gastrointestinal comfort during berberine supplementation. Natural color variation may occur in this product.

Good stuff.
Good for lots of health benefits including glucose control. Wife says the gelcaps are a bit large, but OK for me.

Not An Easy Swallow
I don’t usually have problems swallowing capsules but twice I’ve had difficulty where it got stuck and took a lot of work to get it to finish going down. If it gets sideways at all it’s an issue because of it’s size. Would rather take two smaller ones than one big one. However, this combination is one of the best available as is the company.

Test results are inâ¦.great news
I guess any supplement may not work for everyone. This Now Berberine seems to be lowering my glucose levels.What really amazed me is that taking 400 mg of Bererine and 5 grams of psyllium fiber before breakfast and dinner my test results were great. ( I donât eat lunch) My A1C when down from 6.5 to 6.4, my total cholesterol went from 260 to 197.My weight went down 3 lbs over 3 months Thanksgiving through Christmas into February. What I noticed is that food cravings have really dropped, I get full thus eating less. I thought my glucose levels would have been better because Iâve tested with my monitor and numbers have improved 10%.

3 pills
I’m not sure if it’s helping me yet. So far, it’s ok, however, you have to take 3 capsules which is hard for me.

Another happy purchase
Most others are all over the place with their quality control, but NOW has long been one of my most trusted brands, and this Berberine product reaffirmed that.

No Doubt About It: This Supplement May Have SERIOUS Side Effects!
I really hate to write a negative review of a NOW Foods product, because I’ve used, trusted and benefitted from NOW supplements for many years. But after recent blood tests showing my Triglycerides, Glucose and A1C levels were higher than normal, I decided to start taking NOW’s Berberine Glucose Support supplement.For 17 days I took two softgels daily without incident. However, on the 18th day, about two hours following my after-dinner dose, I began feeling fatigued, a bit dizzy, nauseous and acquired a major headache. Needless to say, this was surprising and even a little scary, since I’d never had a reaction like that to a supplement. At first i thought it might’ve been due to something else, like food poisoning. But my dinner that night was a perfectly normal menu I’d enjoyed many times. These side effects took over 24 hours to dissipate.And THEN I read the one-star reviews of this Berberine supplement on Amazon and discovered that a number of users has also suffered similar side effects and even worse — continuous vomiting, chills and more. And interestingly, a number of users reported having used the supplement for a number of days without any problems before the side effects finally showed up.Although I have no way of knowing if this is true, I suspect that perhaps NOW’s Berberine Glucose Support had the accumulative effect of working to the point where my blood sugar became TOO low. And if that IS the case, I cannot continue taking this supplement, because the side effects are definitely NOT worth it. There are other ways to effectively lower Triglycerides, Glucose and A1C levels — like intermittent fasting, cutting back on sugars and carbs and exercising. But you might not want to include NOW Berberine Glucose Support, because the possible side effects are real — and can be SERIOUS.

Just be careful.
Be careful. Take 1 & stop. Watchful waiting. Probably works but too many side effects for me. Low ‘belly’ discomfort, felt feverish & lethargic but couldn’t sleep well. Took 3 days to clear. Not diabetic or pre diabetic. Labs are normal. BMI is very good especially for my age (age may be a factor?). I just eat too much energy depleting glucose before I catch myself. I find this is a trustworthy brand so I would start here. Retired Clinical Research Coordinator.

I will definitely continue using it.ð¯ Top quality from NOW Supplements â highly recommended!

My gums started bleeding after I started using this product. And a few other side effects I donât want to mention here. It was scary. Stopped as soon as I noticed. Couldnât find the side effects that I experienced online which was scarier. Never used again. Will never use again.
