How does it work?
Berberine is a compound found in several plants that works on different things in your body like enzymes and pathways - one pathway is the AMPK pathway that is known as "metabolic's master switch"

natural antimicrobial aka it fights pathogens in the gut like bacteria, yeast and parasites to support gut health
supports liver health
reduces inflammation
Butyrate is a SCFA (short chain fatty acid) that is produced when gut bacteria ferment dietary fiber and is one of the most important fuels for colon cells.
Benefits of Butyrate:

Reduces inflammation in the gut
Encourages the growth of good bacteria
Improves insulin sensitivity and may help regulate blood sugar and weight
Stimulates your body's natural GLP-1
