Description
Sally-Ann Creed® Berberine Complex is a unique formulation containing berberine, milk thistle, chromium, a 4-strain probiotic blend as well as B vitamins (B1, B6 & B12).
A plant extract from a group of shrubs called Berberis, Berberine has been used for many years in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, and is gaining traction in the medical field due to its varying benefits, and near pharmaceutical drug effectiveness.
- Reduces blood sugar levels
- Assists with weight management
- Assists in lowering cholesterol, and may reduce risks of heart disease
- Potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects
- Reduced fat build up in the liver
On its own, it is effective in lowering blood glucose levels and improving cholesterol levels but is poorly absorbed by the body.
Sally-Ann Creed® Berberine Complex contains:
Milk Thistle that assists with the bioavailability of Berberine by acting as an inhibitor of the transporter that limits its absorption, while promoting liver health;
Probiotic 4-strain blend built into the recipe, that supports the gut microbiome, and may assist in lowering cholesterol;
Chromium, which may assist with blood glucose levels; and
B Vitamins – notably B1, B6 and B12. These vitamins may help to control homocysteine levels and prevent anaemia.
Some additional benefits of this wonderful supplement may include:
– Reduced blood pressure
– Assistance with diabetes, due to berberines ability to improve insulin resistance and promote insulin secretion
– Anti-aging effect on skin, thanks to berberines antioxidant properties
– Help for women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
– Increased ability to metabolise carbohydrates, fats and proteins
– Contribution to tissue formation
– Contribution to normal red blood cell formation
– Anticancer effects, due to berberine being able to block the proliferation of and to kill cancer cells

If Milk Thistle is taken in combination with this medication, it has the potential to raise the level of the drug, causing unpleasant or even dangerous side effects. Milk Thistle may mimic the effects of oestrogen and should not be used in combination.
Chromium should be used with caution with anti-diabetes medication, as it could increase the risk for hypoglycaemia. Chromium can decrease the absorption of levothyroxine (used to treat hypothyroidism).
Do not use if diagnosed with kidney, liver or gallstone complaints.
Seek professional advice before using long term.
Many medications are processed by liver enzymes, therefore consult a medical practitioner before using the supplement in combination with other medications.
