Explore Supplement Ingredients
A supplement is only as useful as the formula behind it. At SupplementTiger, our Ingredient Library takes a closer look at the vitamins, minerals, botanical extracts, amino acids, oils, probiotics, and other compounds commonly found across dietary supplement formulas.
Instead of focusing only on advertised benefits, our ingredient guides examine what each substance is, why manufacturers use it, how it may function in the body, and what scientific research currently tells us about its potential benefits. We also cover practical considerations such as typical supplemental amounts, possible side effects, safety concerns, and interactions where relevant.
Whether you spotted an unfamiliar ingredient on a supplement label, want to compare two formulas, or are researching a particular nutrient or botanical, this library is designed to make the information easier to understand. Explore the ingredients below or search for a specific ingredient to begin your research.

Cinnamon Bark
Cinnamon bark is obtained from trees belonging to the Cinnamomum genus and contains naturally occurring compounds such as cinnamaldehyde and polyphenols. Beyond its familiar use as a spice, cinnamon has attracted research interest for its possible effects on glucose metabolism, antioxidant activity, and other aspects of metabolic wellness. Different varieties, particularly Ceylon and Cassia cinnamon, can vary considerably in their chemical composition.

Berberine
Berberine is a natural plant compound widely studied for metabolic health. It may support healthy blood sugar, cholesterol, digestion, and weight management. Found in plants such as barberry and goldenseal, berberine is commonly used in dietary supplements. It also supports overall wellness and healthy cellular function. Research continues to explore its potential benefits.
