Why care about blood sugar and glucose metabolism?
Unstable blood sugar can lead to fatigue, sugar cravings, and eventually to insulin resistance. According to expert reviews, targeted supplements – especially berberine, chromium, and inositol – may help improve insulin sensitivity and support glycemic control.
Disrupted glucose balance may also cause weight gain and fatigue. In addition to traditional actives like berberine, chromium, or inositol, we also include modern, multifunctional ingredients – such as fisetin.
What will you find in this category?
- Berberine – activates AMPK, supports fat metabolism and glycemia.
- Chromium (GTF) – essential for insulin sensitivity and carbohydrate processing.
- Gymnema sylvestre – helps reduce sugar cravings and stabilize blood sugar levels.
- Myo- & D-chiro inositol – popular for PCOS and among biohackers to improve glucose transport.
- Fisetin – a natural flavonoid with anti-inflammatory and senolytic effects, may contribute to metabolic balance and improved insulin sensitivity.

- Take berberine with meals 2–3× daily (effects typically appear after 4–6 weeks).
