Supports Healthy Blood Sugar & Cholesterol
Promotes Efficient Cellular Energy Production
Multidimensional Cardiovascular Health Support

CM Core is an Ortho Molecular formula combining berberine with alpha lipoic acid. It is taken to support cardiovascular and metabolic health together, including cholesterol and blood sugar levels already within a normal range.*
90 capsules per bottle.
The formula is built around two ingredients that are usually sold separately.
Berberine is a plant alkaloid found in goldenseal, barberry and Oregon grape, used for centuries in ayurvedic and Chinese herbal traditions. It supports healthy blood glucose and lipid levels already within a normal range.*
Alpha lipoic acid is an antioxidant the body makes in small amounts and uses in energy production inside the mitochondria.*
Ortho Molecular put them together because cardiovascular and metabolic health are not separate systems. Cholesterol, blood sugar, energy production and antioxidant status all move together.
Follow the serving directions on the label. As with any berberine-containing product, most people find it easier to tolerate taken with a meal rather than on an empty stomach.
Is CM Core a berberine supplement?
Partly. Berberine is one of the two main ingredients, paired with alpha lipoic acid. If you want berberine on its own, Flourish carries other options and a pharmacist can walk you through the difference.
Should I take CM Core with food?
Berberine-containing products are commonly taken with meals, mainly because that tends to be easier on the stomach. If it bothers you, taking it partway through a meal is the first thing to try.
How is it different from taking berberine and ALA separately?
Convenience and dosing. The formula fixes the ratio for you. If you already take one of the two, buying them separately may make more sense.
Can I take it with a statin or a diabetes medication?
Ask a pharmacist first. Berberine can interact with some medications and the significance varies by drug and by person. Call 405-751-3333 and read out your list.
How many capsules are in a bottle?
90.
