60 vegetarian capsules
What Is Berberine?
Berberine is a naturally occurring yellow-orange pigment antioxidant and antimicrobial compound found in many plants such as Barberry, Goldenseal, Goldenthread, Oregon grape, Coptic, Scutellaria, Phellodendron (Amur Cork Tree), Tinospora (Avurvedic Giloy), Xanthorhiza (Yellowroot), and numerous other plants.
Berberine is usually most-concentrated in roots, stems, and bark.
Like Quercetin (yellow) and Curcumin (orange), Berberine has developed into one of the most important colour pigment supplements.

"I first became aware of the super-nutrient berberine while researching its special qualities as a yellow-orange pigment. Berberine’s broad spectrum activities are now believed to provide the major health-promoting properties of numerous medicinal plants and trees that contain this nutrient. Berberine is prevalent as an ancient and commonly used anti-microbial in Chinese medicine formulas in the form of Amur Cork Tree bark. This berberine-rich bark kills off microbes that could contaminate the formula. Berberine is a yellow-orange. The orange pigment is there. And that means it's very good for repairing tissue. Berberine is a personal favourite and I use it like (and with) quercetin and curcumin.”

More on the Berberine Colour Pigment
Berberine is a quinoline type of yellow-orange pigment. To be specific, berberine is a bitter isoquinoline yellow-orange alkaloid. The quinones/ quinolines are heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds that comprise their own category of natural colour of pigments. And they're typically yellow to yellow-orange. Typically when these type of compounds are loaded with energy they'll be yellow. And then as that energy gets used up, they lose their colour and turn white or clear.
