Berberine: The Natural Compound Gaining Scientific Attention
Berberine is a bioactive compound found in several plants including barberry, goldenseal, and Oregon grape. It has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, and is now one of the most researched natural compounds in metabolic health science.
How Does Berberine Work? Berberine works primarily by activating an enzyme called AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) — sometimes referred to as a "metabolic master switch." This enzyme plays a key role in regulating metabolism at the cellular level.
