AlchePharma's Bergamonte® Cardio-Polyphenol Complex is built around one of the most extensively researched citrus extracts in modern nutritional science: Bergamonte®, a patented, clinically studied Citrus bergamia (bergamot) extract cultivated exclusively along the Ionian Coast of Reggio Calabria, Italy — the only microclimate on Earth where this fruit is commercially grown.

Unlike generic bergamot powders sold under commodity labeling, Bergamonte® is produced using a proprietary high-yield extraction process that isolates and concentrates the fruit's Bioactive Polyphenolic Fraction (BPF) — rather than simply drying and grinding the whole peel. This distinction matters academically: whole-fruit powders vary widely in polyphenol content batch to batch, while Bergamonte® is guaranteed and standardized to 38% total polyphenols (190 mg per 500 mg capsule), delivering a reproducible, clinically relevant dose of neoeriocitrin, naringin, and melitidin in every capsule.
These flavonoids are the subject of a growing body of published human and preclinical research examining their role in lipid metabolism, vascular endothelial function, glycemic regulation, and oxidative stress markers.† Bergamonte® itself is protected under U.S. Patent #9,040,101, reflecting the novelty of its extraction and standardization method — a meaningful signal of manufacturing rigor in a supplement category otherwise crowded with undifferentiated bergamot products.
Each capsule is housed in a clean-label, vegan shell (modified cellulose and water) with organic pea starch and silica as the only excipients — no magnesium stearate, fillers, or artificial flow agents — consistent with AlchePharma®'s broader clean-label manufacturing standard.
What makes this product different
|
1
|
Patented, not generic: Most bergamot supplements use unstandardized fruit powder. Bergamonte® is a patented (US #9,040,101), clinically studied extract — not a commodity ingredient.
|
|
2
|
Guaranteed potency: Standardized to 38% polyphenols (190 mg/capsule), several multiples higher than typical bergamot powders, which are rarely standardized at all.
|
|
3
|
Single-origin traceability: Grown and processed exclusively in Calabria, Italy, tying the finished product to a documented, single-region supply chain.
|
|
4
|
Published research base: Bergamonte® is among the few bergamot extracts with a meaningful body of human clinical research behind it, rather than extrapolated animal data alone.†
|
|
5
|
Excipient-clean formulation: Vegan capsule, organic pea starch, no magnesium stearate — a cleaner excipient profile than most stock bergamot SKUs on the market.
|
|
6
|
Full-spectrum extraction: Preserves the fruit's complete polyphenolic profile rather than isolating a single compound, supporting batch-to-batch consistency for anyone tracking a supplement's effect over time.
|
