How Spectrum BR Works The gastrointestinal tract is a critical indicator of overall health and well-being. Berberine is the dominant ingredient in Spectrum BR due to its notoriety as a medicinal alkaloid compound used to support GI health. Berberine also is used in traditional Chinese medicine for its healthy anti-inflammatory response in the intestine.
The Spectrum BR Blend includes root extracts from ginger, licorice, rhubarb, skullcap, coptis, and phellodendron. Each of these ingredients has been used in traditional Chinese medicine and modern clinical applications to promote digestive and respiratory health.
The formula is rounded out with oregon grape root extract and an additional 30 mg of coptis root extract due to their exceptional anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Studies show both phytochemicals as having high free radical scavenging activity.
The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory bioactive components of Spectrum BR include polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, and vitamins to support optimal gastrointestinal and respiratory tract health.
