Metabolic support

Support the Metabolism Behind the Number

Healthy metabolism is not just about what you see on the scale. It's about supporting glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, cholesterol levels already within the normal range, and cardiovascular health. Real Berberine combines Berberine HCl, Ceylon cinnamon, and Shilajit to support the body's natural metabolic pathways, without turning the conversation into quick fixes.

Real Berberine Science
The Science

One Natural Nutrient.
Three Real Ingredients.

Berberine is one of the most studied natural compounds in the world. It works quietly, on the inside, helping your body handle sugar and fats the way a healthy metabolism is meant to.

Ceylon cinnamon works alongside it. LeafSource® Shilajit brings the fulvic and humic acids. Three ingredients, each chosen for a reason, made to a Health Canada licence.

Key Ingredients

Three ingredients.
One complete formula.

Every ingredient is chosen for a specific reason, at a specific dose. Nothing is filler.

Primary Active
Berberine
HCl
500 mg · twice daily
The most studied form of berberine, and the one used in most of the research. It helps your body handle sugar and fats the way a healthy metabolism is meant to, and it is here at the full 500 mg the label calls for.
What it supports: Healthy glucose metabolism · Healthy lipid metabolism · Healthy cholesterol, including LDL and triglycerides · Cardiovascular health
Blood Sugar Support
Ceylon
Cinnamon
100 mg · true cinnamon
True cinnamon, not the cheaper Cassia kind. It was chosen to work alongside the berberine rather than repeat it, so the formula supports your metabolism from more than one direction.
Why it's here: 100 mg of Cinnamomum verum, the true cinnamon, chosen to complement berberine rather than duplicate it
Bioavailability Enhancer
LeafSource®
Shilajit
35 mg fulvic · 15 mg humic
Real shilajit at 70% fulvic acid content, and the source of the fulvic and humic acids in this formula. LeafSource® has worked with this material for 25 years. It is in the bottle because it belongs there, not to make the label longer.
What's in it: 35 mg fulvic acids and 15 mg humic acids from LeafSource® Shilajit

How To Use

Simple. Consistent. Effective.

01

Take With Your Meals

Adults: 1 capsule, 2 times per day, with a meal. That is the dose on the label. Berberine is meant to be taken with food.

02

Stay Consistent

Take it every day and give it time. Talk to a health care practitioner before using Real Berberine for longer than 6 weeks, or if you take other medicine or have a health condition.

03

Track How You Feel

Check in on your energy through the day and how you feel after meals. Your next round of bloodwork is the other place to look.

How We Compare

Not All Berberine is the Same.

Most berberine supplements are generic isolates with less than 1% bioavailability and no absorption support. Here's what sets Real Berberine apart.

A product worth taking!

I use the Stress complex and the Magnesium. Both products work very well. The magnesium powder has a very pleasant taste. The Stress complex works very quickly with a calming affect. Also the berberine is a great product as well.

Berberine product

I had some issues with support however turns out it was technical difficulties.
Support finally got things sorted out answered my question very quickly and with lots of helpfull info, highly recommend Leafsource and the Berberine product I have been taking for about 2 weeks and my numbers are coming down.
Thanks Leafsource

Berberine Works (so far so good)

It’s been 4 weeks since I started taking the recommended 2 capsules per day (1 morning + 1 evening). After 1 week I have stopped taking insulin and my blood sugar has remained in the 4 to 10 range (mostly between 6 and 8). This has eliminated 4 needles per day x 21 days =84 needles not needed. Hurrah 🎉. So far so good.

Did not notice a difference

I am almost 1 month in and have not seen any difference. So all the hype seems to be for nuthing.

Hi Allan, we’re very sorry to hear this was your experience.

With a formula like Real Berberine, the timeline can vary quite a bit from person to person depending on things like diet, baseline blood sugar or metabolic health, consistency of use, and other lifestyle factors. Some people notice changes fairly quickly, while for others it can take longer before benefits become noticeable.

That said, we never want anyone to feel disappointed or unheard. Our Real Berberine is made with berberine HCl, Ceylon cinnamon, and LeafSource® Shilajit to provide broader metabolic support, but we also understand that not every supplement feels the same for every individual.

We would genuinely appreciate the chance to learn more about your experience and see how we can help. Please reach out to us at info@leafsource.com and we would be happy to support you directly.

FAQ

Common Questions

Most berberine supplements are berberine and nothing else. Real Berberine adds Ceylon cinnamon, the true cinnamon, and LeafSource® Shilajit, which brings 35 mg of fulvic acids and 15 mg of humic acids. Three ingredients chosen to work together, third-party tested, and made to a Health Canada licence under NPN 80133944.
Everyone is different. Take it every day with food and give it time. Ask a health care practitioner before using Real Berberine for longer than 6 weeks, and let your own bloodwork tell you the rest.
Standard berberine is poorly absorbed. Real Berberine pairs it with LeafSource® Shilajit for its fulvic and humic acids, and with Ceylon cinnamon so the formula supports your metabolism from more than one direction.
Adults: 1 capsule, 2 times per day, taken with a meal. Each capsule delivers 500 mg of berberine HCl, so 90 capsules is a 45-day supply. Ask a health care practitioner about using it for longer than 6 weeks.
Berberine can interact with certain medications, including metformin and blood thinners. If you're on any prescription medication, particularly diabetes or cardiovascular drugs, consult your healthcare provider before starting Real Berberine.
