There are many factors that affect cardiovascular health, such as cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar. Swanson Berberine Plus with Bitter Melon and Milk Thistle has been expertly formulated to address these key areas of health with a botanical trio of herbal extracts.

Berberine is a favorite of herbalists because it can support overall cardiovascular health. In particular, berberine is good for healthy cholesterol and glucose levels that are already in the normal range. Scientists now believe that many of the benefits seen with berberine may be related to its action on an important enzyme known as AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase). AMPK is a systemic enzyme that affects how cellular energy is produced and used. This action has ripple effects on a wide variety of metabolic processes, cellular health, and more.

Bitter melon, also known as Momordica, is a metabolic herb from the Indian Ayurvedic tradition. It is believed to support healthy glucose metabolism and has traditionally been used to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels already within the normal range. It is a source of powerful antioxidant compounds that protect cells throughout the body. It has been scientifically studied for its potential to support optimal insulin utilization to promote healthy blood sugar levels.

Traditionally known as a liver tonic, milk thistle is gaining popularity for its ability to support healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Swanson Berberine Plus with Bitter Melon and Milk Thistle contains a highly active milk thistle seed extract standardized to 80% silymarin, a powerful antioxidant and flavonoid that may support metabolic health and the body's insulin response, as well as support liver function and detoxification.
