Dr. Mercola's USDA Organic Biothin Bitter Melon and Goldenseal provides your body with two bitter botanicals that support metabolic health in at least two important ways:
- It activates your bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) throughout your body, including your small intestine and belly fat, to influence your gut microbiome, weight management, immune and brain health.
- It turns on your metabolic switch, and tells your cells to burn fat stores (instead of storing fat) for energy through the activation of AMPK.
Your body is home to at least 25 bitter taste receptors. Also called T2Rs, they exist in your lungs, airways, sinuses, gastrointestinal tract, brain, pancreas, cardiovascular system, muscle, reproductive organs, urinary tract and even in your belly fat. T2Rs influence your gut microbiome, immune and brain health and metabolic health, including your weight and glucose metabolism.
Bitter foods and botanicals - like bitter melon and goldenseal - activate the T2Rs in your organs and tissues, and potentially benefit many aspects of your health.
As goldenseal has become a very adulterated material, Dr. Mercola uses Botanical ID testing to verify the plant species, so you know you're getting the real ingredient. Additionally, Biothin Bitter Melon and Goldenseal is standardized to berberine, meaning our product is tested for berberine to verify the label claim.
