Berberin HCl Powder
How we scored this product Show the full breakdown
Bevisning gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Säkerhet caps applied after weighting.
This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Redaktionellt notes
Standard 500mg berberine HCl powder at a competitive price with no absorption-enhancing co-ingredient (e.g. no dihydroberberine or silymarin pairing that some competitors add).
Why this scored this way
This BulkSupplements Berberin HCl Powder scores 6.5, making it a mid-tier product with both strengths and weaknesses. It contains 500.0mg of Berberin, which is only 33% of the 1500mg trial dose with grade A evidence (strong human trial data). The quality transparency (6.0) is limited by the lack of third-party testing.
What drives the score up

What drags it down
- Overall dose is only 33% of the trial dose across ingredients.
- Berberin (500.0mg is 33% of the 1500mg trial dose) is significantly under-dosed.
- No third-party testing, which caps the quality transparency.
- Quality transparency of 6.0 is below the site average.
- Limited consumer feedback (community score: 6.0).
Why you'd choose it

- You want Berberin from a BulkSupplements product.
Why you might skip it

- You want a product with a publicly available CoA.
