350mg of berberine hydrochloride per capsule, from a root extract standardised to 97%. That is the berberine itself, not a figure calculated from the whole root. One capsule a day.

It usually means the weight of plant root an extract was made from, not the berberine in the capsule. A 10:1 extract of 5,000mg of root is 500mg of extract, and the berberine in that is smaller again. Berbenite states the berberine itself: 350mg of berberine hydrochloride per capsule. If a label gives you a large number, look for the milligrams of berberine hydrochloride next to it.

Four things on any label: the milligrams of berberine hydrochloride per capsule, as distinct from any "equivalent" figure; the standardisation of the extract; whether the other ingredients carry authorised claims; and the price per day in the basket. Berbenite: 350mg of berberine hydrochloride, 97% standardised extract, chromium and zinc at 30% NRV with their authorised claims.

A vegan capsule. If you're searching for berberine tablets, Berbenite is the same daily format in a capsule: one a day, with water.

Berberine is a yellow alkaloid found in the roots and bark of several plants, including Berberis aristata, the Indian barberry. Berbenite uses an extract of Berberis aristata root standardised to 97% berberine hydrochloride, providing 350mg per capsule.

Berberis aristata is a shrub of the Himalayan foothills, known in English as Indian barberry or tree turmeric, and in Ayurveda as daruharidra. Its root is the source of the berberine in Berbenite.

Berberine hydrochloride is the salt form of berberine used in most capsules. Berbenite provides 350mg of berberine hydrochloride per capsule from Berberis aristata root extract.

Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism. Each capsule gives you 12µg of chromium as chromium picolinate, 30% of the reference intake.

Chromium picolinate is chromium bound to picolinic acid, the form used in Berbenite. Each capsule provides 12µg, 30% of the reference intake. Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.

Zinc contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism, the normal function of the immune system, normal acid-base metabolism and normal protein synthesis. Each capsule gives you 3mg of zinc as zinc oxide, 30% of the reference intake.

Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism.

Berberine is a described ingredient: 350mg of berberine hydrochloride per capsule.

Berbenite is built for one capsule a day with breakfast, with water. If another mealtime suits your routine better, the same capsule at the same time each day is what matters.

One capsule a day, with water, ideally with breakfast. One is the daily amount, so don't exceed it. Berbenite is for adults, 18 and over.

No. The recommended serving is one capsule a day. If you take medication or are under medical supervision, speak to your GP first.

Give it the pack. Nobody feels a capsule, so the routine is the test: one with breakfast, every day, and form your view at the end of the month. The refund covers the first thirty days.

Speak to your GP before you start, and take the ingredient list with you. This matters most if you take medication for diabetes, a statin, a blood-thinning medicine or cyclosporine, because berberine can interact with them. Your GP or pharmacist can check your list.

Anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or under 18. Anyone taking medication for diabetes, a statin, a blood-thinning medicine or cyclosporine, unless their GP has said yes. Anyone under medical supervision for a liver or kidney condition, unless their GP has said yes.

No. Berbenite isn't for pregnancy, breastfeeding or children. If you're planning a pregnancy, speak to your GP about when to stop.

Berbenite's recommended serving is one capsule a day, and that is the serving to stay at. If you take medication or are under medical supervision, speak to your GP first.

Berbenite provides 3mg of zinc and 12µg of chromium per capsule, both at 30% of the reference intake. If you take a multivitamin, add its zinc and chromium figures to those. If you take any other berberine product, ask your pharmacist before combining them.

350mg is what's in one Berbenite capsule, as berberine hydrochloride, and one capsule a day is the pack's serving. Plenty of products on the shelf give 500mg a capsule and suggest two or three a day; Berbenite is a different design, one capsule with breakfast, with chromium and zinc alongside it. Don't take more than the pack says. If you're thinking about higher amounts, that's a conversation for a pharmacist or GP, especially if you take any medication.

Because it's active in the body in ways a vitamin isn't. It can interact with medicines for diabetes, statins, blood thinners and cyclosporine; it upsets some stomachs; it isn't for pregnancy, breastfeeding or children; and in 2026 the UK's Committee on Toxicity published a draft opinion on berberine that raised questions about interactions and long-term intake, which is still a draft. Berbenite is a food supplement, not a medicine, and the pack's cautions are there to be read. If you take any medication or have a liver or kidney condition, ask your GP first.

For some people, yes: wind, loose stools or nausea, usually in the first days. Taking it with breakfast rather than on an empty stomach is the usual answer. If it carries on, stop taking it; the refund covers the first thirty days.

Berbenite is a food supplement, and the only things it says about itself are the authorised ones: Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. Zinc contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism. It isn't a weight-loss product and it isn't a medicine. If weight is the goal, your GP is the right first conversation.

No. Those are prescription medicines. Berberine is a plant alkaloid sold as a food supplement, and Berbenite makes no comparison with them. If you take a GLP-1 medicine, speak to your prescriber before adding any supplement.

No. Berberis aristata is sometimes called tree turmeric because its root is yellow, but it's a different plant from Curcuma longa, the turmeric in the kitchen. Berberine and curcumin are different compounds.

Barberry, goldenseal, Oregon grape and a few other plants, in their roots and bark, none of which turn up in a normal diet. That's why people take it as a capsule. Berbenite uses Berberis aristata root, the Indian barberry.

Other berberine products, unless a pharmacist has said the combined amount is fine. If you take medication, especially for diabetes, cholesterol or blood clotting, ask your pharmacist about timing and interactions before you start. Take it with food.

Berbenite is a capsule: 350mg of berberine hydrochloride you swallow, stated on the box, once a day. Wellgard doesn't make patches and can't speak for them. If you're comparing, look for the milligrams of berberine hydrochloride the product says you actually take in.

Berberine is processed by the liver and interacts with some medicines through it, which is one reason the cautions exist. If you have a liver or kidney condition, or take medication, don't start Berbenite without your GP's say-so. Berbenite is a food supplement, not a medicine, and one capsule a day is the serving.
