What’s in it
Amounts are shown only where the manufacturer publishes them. Anything without a figure is undisclosed — and for an active ingredient, an undisclosed dose is the central problem with this category.

How the manufacturer says it works
Positioned by the manufacturer on the ingredient category described above rather than on weight loss outcomes.
What the evidence actually supports
The ingredient categories here — berberine, soluble fibre and probiotics — each have their own evidence base, covered in our ingredient guides. None acts on the GLP-1 receptor.
Where that evidence stops
No published human trial of this specific product. Ingredient-level evidence does not transfer automatically to a particular formulation or dose, and none of these products has weight loss outcome evidence.
Strengths and problems
Strengths
- Publishes berberine dose per capsule clearly at 600mg
- 120 capsules described as 60 servings, so the daily dose is inferable at 1,200mg

- Among the better-value berberine options
Problems
- Ceylon cinnamon quantity is not published
- Berberine is not a GLP-1 mechanism
- Significant drug interaction potential via CYP3A4
- Warnings, allergens and refunds were not published on the page we captured
