What to check on the label

  • Whether the figure is per capsule or per day, and how many capsules the label's daily serving contains.
  • The salt form named (berberine HCl, dihydroberberine, Ca-AKG). The catalog does not convert between forms.
  • Many labels carry interaction warnings for berberine. Read the label warning and the safety section on this page.

Amounts are per label serving as recorded in the catalog and are not a recommendation. Testing status reflects what the brand lists. Nothing here is medical advice.

Evidence gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Safety caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Important to know
BerberineStandard berberine has ~5% oral bioavailability. Dihydroberberine and berberine phytosomes absorb better. Split doses across meals (500 mg × 3) to avoid GI upset.

Editorial notes

One of Double Wood's best-selling products (84 reviews, 4.6 rating). Straightforward 500mg berberine HCl at a very low price point; vendor explicitly encourages 2-3x capsule dosing to hit the 1000-1500mg/day used in most clinical glucose-metabolism trials.
