1000mg berberine with chromium, milk thistle, and absorption optimisers. Blood sugar and metabolism support.

What sets DRV+ apart

Berberine alone works. But berberine with wider support works better.

Most berberine supplements sell you berberine and nothing else. We add three things: 

Chromium, because it manages blood sugar and metabolism. Milk thistle, because Berberine may place demands on your liver which needs additional support. Alpha lipoic acid, because it has a role in the activated metabolic processes. BioPerine® black pepper extract, because it helps your body absorb all the nutrients.

KEY FEATURES

  • 1,000mg berberine HCl from Berberis aristata root bark at the clinical dose.
  • 200µg chromium picolinate for blood glucose and metabolism support.
  • 50mg milk thistle seed extract (standardised to 80% silymarins) to support your liver.
  • 200mg alpha lipoic acid which your body uses as a coenzyme.
  • 5mg BioPerine black pepper extract for optimal absorption.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Take it consistently for at least 12 weeks. Blood sugar and metabolism don't shift overnight. But with consistent use alongside a balanced diet, you'll enjoy steadier energy and sugar balance.

IMPORTANT

If you take any prescribed medication, are pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical supervision, speak to your doctor before use.

Still have questions?
We’ve got answers.

Can my client take Berberine+ with diabetes medication?

No, Berberine+ reduces blood sugar spikes, and when used with diabetes medication, it may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

Is Berberine+ a suitable alternative to medication?

Metabolic syndrome needs to be assessed by a healthcare provider. If the plan is to use diet and lifestyle as a first-line approach to reversing metabolic syndrome, Berberine+ is a fantastic addition to this. However, if your client's condition is past the point of using diet and lifestyle alone, Berberine+ is not a substitute for medication.
