I suspect researchers are without a full understanding of interactions within this gut world, how them critters and our skin critters can affect us elsewhere in our body, and how our genetics affects them/etc. Since people can react differently to a given product, this suggests to me there is a lot of unknowns about what's happening.

Sotalix Berberine vs Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome
Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome is a specific product, but I notice there are Berberine Phytosome products being sold.
Phytosome - A phytosome is an advanced molecular complex that binds herbal extracts to phospholipids (like sunflower lecithin or phosphatidylcholine) to drastically improve bodily absorption. By closely mimicking human cell membranes, it solves the poor bioavailability issues associated with powerful plant compounds like curcumin, milk thistle, and green tea.
I have not been down this Berberine Phytosome rabbit hole in regards to absorption for products using this expression, but I know that Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome has documented their product
Are all Berberine Phytosome products offered the same, most likely not in regards to absorption, but better than Berberine, which I tried and rejected. This write-up is peddling Berbevis's product, and yes, compared to Berberine, Berbevis's product is better.
Berbevis vs Berberine: Key Differences & Benefits

Your product is suggesting it has Berberine HCL with added contents, but they don't use the phytosome word. The only reason I use Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome is because Berbevis has documented their product. I know nothing about those other Berberine Phytosome products, or who makes them, but I see them listed at Amazon.
The problem with dietary supplements is many of them lack a scientific review.
Berbevis® Berberine Phytosome
Berbevis® effectiveness in balancing the blood lipid profile and modulating body composition was proven also in borderline hyperlipidemic subjects supplemented with a single daily 550-mg dose.
Specifically, two different populations were enrolled in the study: subjects with stable hyperlipidemia (n=47; Standard Management + Berbevis® vs Standard Management) and with occasional hyperlipidemia (n=25; Standard Management + Berbevis® vs baseline).
In both cases, Berbevis® rebalanced blood lipids, including T-Col, HDL and triglycerides, with a positive outcome on anthropometric measurements (see Figures 1 and 2).
