Been taking an 8 hour Berberine for 2 weeks with the Panax Ginseng. I had a fasting blood sugar 14 days ago of 221. Yesterday it was 96. I have never had these results with Metformin which gave me raging Diarrhea and almost nothing with Glipizide. I hope you create this supplement together. I am on Keto. Went from 225 to 218 so losing weight as well. Awesome video!
@impeccableshoegame7029 NOW Panax Ginseng Extract, and Peak Performance Glucovantage Super Berberine. Dr Berg suggested the Ginseng with the Berberine for the Ozempic mimic effect in a previous video. There is 4 hour and 8 hour Berberine. I opted for 8 hours. More expensive but obviously worth it.
I started taking it about a month now. I've been doing intermediate fasting for about 2 years now. I went to my doctor on Friday and I lost 5 more pounds. I have been listening to Dr. Berge now for about 2 years. I have gone from a size 24 to a size 18. I've lost about 70 listening to him. Plus now I have a head full of hair.

She said she cannot believe that it’s helping her without the side effects of metformin. Her doctor told her to keep taking it and to take it about 30 minutes before her first meal of the day.
Been taking Berberine after I got off ozempic. Ozempic made me ill but I did lose weight initially.. I’ve kept off 40 lbs for two years. I take Berberine 1,500mg 2x a day. No side effects.

His video on Ozempic is nonsense! *Ozempic is a Miracle Life Saving Drug for people who cannot control their Diabetes.* I only pay $7.70 for it here in Australia. You exaggerate the side effects. Minor side effects only effect 5% to 10% of those using it. Thyroid Cancer? Ozempic does NOT product Thyroid Cancer in normal people, but it clearly states it should NOT be used on people with a family history of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplastic Syndrome. Same for Retinopathy. It should NOT be used for people who already have Retinopathy or Macular Edema because it will make these conditions worse. Muscle loss happens when you lose weight and don't exercise, so ALL Diets lead to muscle loss! Ozempic does NOT cause Kidney Disease, that is a load of bullocks! Do you plan on taking this for the rest of your life? Well yes, just like Diabetics have to take Metformin for the rest of their lives. Herbs do not cure Diabetes. I know because I spent hundreds of dollars on them without helping me one iota!

Assuming that Berberine is derived from Berberis (likely Berberis darwinii), permaculture gardeners are already recommending this plant is included in permaculture schemes, since the berries are edible.

I have been harvesting barberry branch and roots and berries in autumn for a few years, making decoctions and drinking the tea and have never felt any ill effects at all. I don't know how much berberine I get on a daily basis but have never been harmed by it. I drink it as a daily tonic; didn't know about its effects on glucose until recently but, no matter, I will continue drinking barberry tea.
I’m taking berberine for the past week, I’ve been much more energized, my moods are better, my fatigue is a little better, I’m yet to see any changes in diet, I haven’t changed anything in my diet though just added berberine.
No Dr Berg is not the cure. He does a very good job of explaining how the body works and the new research results. We have to figure how to apply it into our personal life.
I mean, I really like his videos and content. But if I don't change my habits and figure out what applies in my life and how, it won't really work. Information is fun. But using the information brings results.
Yes you do. Any herb you take is not taken like you do supplements. My husband takes Berberine for 3 months straight. And then he stops taken it for 2 to 3 weeks. Herbs are used to jump start not to supplement. And then he goes back on it for 3 months.
Would you say is safe to take if your are not diabetic but have wblood leves high or for example my sister was pre-diabetic, can she take them and for how long would you suggest?
Been debating on buying Berberine now for 3 weeks because of sugar waist and not losing weight with intent. This video changed my mind. I’m leaving this site and ordering some. Thnx Dr Berg!
Still alive! 😂 When I take it consistently my blood sugar levels go down and I am not on metformin. I don't know if it helps with blood pressure but my blood pressure has went to normal levels since taking berberine. I told my doctors that they can see me for visits but I am not taking the medicine. (Metformin or any high blood pressure medicine). They are keeping a close eye on me to make sure that I am within normal levels without taking pharmaceuticals.
I've just started taking berberine 4 days ago and I'm not feeling hungry anymore. I've started with 1 tablet /day but looking to increase the dose. Thank you.
9 days Berberine review: taking always 2 15-30 mins before a meal and I have to say that it helped me so much with my appetite and I can go way longer without eating! When I don’t eat for 5 hours I get shaky and nauseous cause of insulin resistance but since taking Berberine I don’t experience this symptoms anymore! I even did a 18 hour fast which was not intentional! I just had an early dinner and no hunger at all until lunch next day. Also experiencing for the first time ever a painless period and clear bright blood which is very unusual for me! I keep u updated if u remind me! I think it’s also Important to talk about side effects because my dad started same time as me taking it and after 2 days he broke out in an itchy rash and his hands were extremely swollen and he had to take anti histamine pills and it lasted for a few days
Maybe. I've been taking 1 x berberine 500mg capsule daily for about a month. I've noticed I feel less hungry than during my last 5 years doing keto/carnivore with intermittent fasting.
My natural pharmacist recommended i take 500mg 3xa day..1 with every meal. She also mentioned you can take 6 a day, so 2 with every meal. For now i am starting on 3xa day. Will let you know how it goes.
I used it in your product and it TRULY stopped my appetite and cured my insulin resistance. I took it with every meal and my appetite just went away and eventually all of the eating issues I had vanished!
Oregon Grape has a massive amount of berberine in it and it has antibiotic properties that are incredible. It helps everything in the gut. Berberine is also a fantastic anti parasitic. We use it on ourselves as well as our cats, dogs, animals. A lot of Persian recipes also call for berberine berries (Japanese Sun Barberry) grow your own supply in a garden or really generous pot.
I tried Berberine..twice..the first time I had been taking 1000mg per day for 5-7 days then I got violently sick. It was like food poisoning. Vomiting, diarrhea, chills, sweats. It took me 2 days to get my fluid intake back up. I thought it WAS food poisoning but wasn’t sure because the Berberine was a new supplement to my regimen. Fast forward to last Sunday. I had again been taking Berberine & after my 2nd dose of 500mg, I was again violently sick. Just like before & it mimicked food poisoning symptoms. I’m 62 & I’ve NEVER been sick like that!
I am glad you are honest about this. I hope they don't delete the comments with negative experiences, because some people are more sensitive than others. I would like to hear what dr. Berg has to say about your experience.
I've been reading reviews on good brand Berberine (Now brand) as well and this seems common. How awful, now I'm afraid to try it. People got violently ill for several hours on Amazon for the 1-star reviews.
@@vince1229 Worked for me like a charm. That's a sample size of 1, I know, but there are semi-decent studies out there (obviously not gonna be backed by high-scale clinical trials like licensable pharmaceuticals) that affirm it's efficacy.
If taken daily, it's important to take a break from it every two weeks. I have been using berberine/goldenseal for 40 years. My grandparents were pioneers in the alternative health movement. Goldenseal has been a lifesaver. It helps to heal many illnesses from colds to diverticulosis. Respect its power and use only for two weeks at a time.
Berberine and Ginseng are not compatible with bloodthinners, right? Did you mention it? I didn't hear it. Unfortunately I have to take bloodthinners and I was advised not to consume berberine and Ginseng. That is why I thought it might be an important information for some viewers
I have been taking Berberine to help keep my blood sugar low Plus diet . I stopped taking the diabetes meds and this works better for me with no side effects .
I take berberine 2x 500 mg daily (metformin gave me extreme muscle pain after a few years ) and I use Ozempic. Only the last one made me lose some weight. Another tip is Alpha lipoic acid to help against or reverse (if its not gone too far) nerve damage. Main thing will always be cut down on carbs.
Dr Berg I started using berberine after I saw your video to lower insulin resistance and that's more than 6 months now and I have lost weight, I don't crave sugar and my blood sugar levels are now constant,when before I was pre-diabetic
Exactly why I love your videos, Dr. Berg!! Thank you. I saw the doctors talking about it, and they were warning of the dangers. I called them out for recommending literal poison (pharmaceuticals) while on the same video warning about berberine! One came back and responded rather nastily to me too. Not very professional IMO. Thanks again Dr. Berg. Your recent vitamin d video has changed my life!
This is no joke--I started taking berberine after losing a bit of weight with intermittent fasting and getting stuck at a certain weight for months (I wondered if it was insulin resistance). After I started taking this supplement, my weight has started to drop again. I'm surprised and so happy that something had FINALLY worked, and I look forward to more results! 🎉
Reading the subject line, stopped me in my tracks. I started using Berberine about a month ago and without changing anything or even thinking of losing weight, I lost 6 pounds. My clothes are now too big for me. I was wondering why I lost so much weight all of a sudden and now I know, Berberine!!
I started taking Berberine months ago when I researched the natural substitute for Ozempic and I must say it definitely works as long with a probiotic small exercise and clean eating
I've been taking 1500 mg berberine for about 4 months. I am needing to lose about 100 lbs. I haven't noticed any appetite reduction. My glucose levels have always been good, so no change there either. Should I try taking more of the berberine?
Yes we take it every day, my blood sugar was 19 way to high,so I took berbrine, gymema,African wild mango,white mulberry and got my sugars down to nine ,I refused ozempic,so my doctor prescribed victoza plus I follow a keto diet and fast which also helps.
@@EmilyBrowneyes Been taking it for about a year. Personally I don't notice a weight lost effect, but the neurological one is massive for me. I can recall, memeorize and think better. I personally take 3g a day.
Since I started combining L-carnitine and Berberine, I've lost a lot of weight and also gained muscle (protein diet + weight lifting, no cardio at all, and I mean AT ALL) Also, somehow it's been 2 years now without stopping... and I haven't been ill once. That has never happened before in my life.

Berberine takes away all my hunger . I can go days without food which is not great . But man it makes me so constipated. I already suffer from constipation and gastrointestinal issues . I wish it wouldn’t do that
I used it for a very long time, and for sure, help with blocking sugar craving. I was not even thinking about eating anything sweet. I was just in the bottom line to become diabetes. Thank you to that. I'm no longer interested in the sweet food I learned after using berberine. To me, berberine is a very good natural choice.
Yes, it can be the healthier option! I took berberine, it doesn't cause nausea or digestive disorders like Ozempic, only that the limit dose I tested was 1.5 grams/day, descending at 0.5 mg/day. I do not know of side effects at higher doses, in terms of digestive/pancreatic tolerance or other systemic side reactions. After 2 weeks, clinically I noticed a reduction in the severity of insulin resistance, in the sense of obtaining the desired results after the hypocaloric and normal hypoglycemic diet. I know immediately when a diet starts to work for me! And most importantly, the decrease was in centimetres, not the weight on the scale, and I lost visceral fat mass! Thanks for all the excellent information on your site, Dr. Berg! 😄
coincidentally I also associated S.O.D. (SuperOxide Dismutase) & Collagen Complex for cellulite, much improved. to me it is a real scientific discovery that gives results! I admit, administered in the short term, 4-6 weeks
Berberine is most known for helping to support healthy blood sugar levels and making insulin more sensitive. Berberine attacks insulin resistance, which is at the heart of most health problems like a fatty liver, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, and high LDL cholesterol. Anything that helps decrease insulin resistance will also help support weight loss. Other potential benefits of berberine: • It helps shrink plaque in the arteries • It has antithrombotic effects • It may help improve the symptoms of Alzheimer's • It greatly improves the dawn phenomenon • It can support the conversion of vitamin D to its active form • It can help prevent cardiac muscle fibrosis after injury • It's neuroprotective • It can help improve your mood • It may help with the side effects of withdrawal • It's antimicrobial, antiviral, and antibacterial • It can help support your immune system • It can help reverse mitochondrial damage and increase the number of mitochondria
I read that it can help to rid the body of parasites too. So that alone will help with weight loss. I have been taking it and I have been feeling better and more energy. It’s good for several things, all of which I need!

I just started taking this a few days ago and so far I have lost 3lbs. Wow!
How much do you take? What brand, please?
I just started taking it a week ago I haven’t noticed less hunger control but it is helping me stay regular 🙌🏻😅 I normally struggle with constipation.
Hi, are you taking 1000ml or 1200???
I eat low carb & take magnesium citrate at night which keeps me regular.
What’s your diet like?
Can Dr Berg be a natural cure for everything? = YES😊
Love this comment ❤️
As is keto and ACV 😂
No Dr Berg is not the cure.
He does a very good job of explaining how the body works and the new research results.
We have to figure how to apply it into our personal life.
I mean, I really like his videos and content.
But if I don't change my habits and figure out what applies in my life and how, it won't really work.
Information is fun.
But using the information brings results.
@@pamelatimbush3762 there are no gods
As always, awesome video Dr. Berg. Very informative. Happy health to everyone.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
My husband is a type 2 diabetic and takes it everyday. His A1C was 15.Within 3 months went to 6.2. He's been on it for 4 years now.
Do you take breaks with the Berberine? If so what do u do when ur breaking?
Yes you do. Any herb you take is not taken like you do supplements. My husband takes Berberine for 3 months straight. And then he stops taken it for 2 to 3 weeks. Herbs are used to jump start not to supplement. And then he goes back on it for 3 months.
These are amazing results! Which brand does he use? Thank you!
Would you say is safe to take if your are not diabetic but have wblood leves high or for example my sister was pre-diabetic, can she take them and for how long would you suggest?
@@GailRuettenwhat was he talking before he was on the berberine?
THANK YOU!! I was needing a new video from you about this
You're welcome!
A lot of people are selling Berberine. What should I be looking for to know it’s the real deal? @Drberg
Been debating on buying Berberine now for 3 weeks because of sugar waist and not losing weight with intent. This video changed my mind. I’m leaving this site and ordering some. Thnx Dr Berg!
Is it working for you?
Still alive! 😂 When I take it consistently my blood sugar levels go down and I am not on metformin. I don't know if it helps with blood pressure but my blood pressure has went to normal levels since taking berberine.
I told my doctors that they can see me for visits but I am not taking the medicine. (Metformin or any high blood pressure medicine). They are keeping a close eye on me to make sure that I am within normal levels without taking pharmaceuticals.
Hello. Sharing the info I have on Berberine: th-cam.com/video/w_Su41RIJ78/w-d-xo.html
Do you take breaks with the Berberine? If so what do u do when ur breaking?
I loved how I felt taking berberine for a couple of days, but it gave me a headache that took a couple of days to recuperate from
It's always good to start out slow
Berbecrap gave me Nausea and I threw it away. Ozempic did work however.
I've just started taking berberine 4 days ago and I'm not feeling hungry anymore. I've started with 1 tablet /day but looking to increase the dose. Thank you.
What brand do you use? 😊
Plez let us know?
Same here, it kills the appetite & sugar cravings for me. Been taking it on and off for like 10 days. I got mine at Walmart
Very potent substance for weight control when combined with some form of moderate fasting, proper diet, and exercise. I'm at my ideal weight at 57.
Same😊
What brand of berberine do you take ?
Great. Thanks for your comment. Stay safe and healthy.
Hi
What dose do you take and btw congrats 🎉 on your success!
🌸👱🏼♀️🌸
Can you please answer the question being asked, about what brand, and what dosage?
9 days Berberine review: taking always 2 15-30 mins before a meal and I have to say that it helped me so much with my appetite and I can go way longer without eating! When I don’t eat for 5 hours I get shaky and nauseous cause of insulin resistance but since taking Berberine I don’t experience this symptoms anymore! I even did a 18 hour fast which was not intentional! I just had an early dinner and no hunger at all until lunch next day.
Also experiencing for the first time ever a painless period and clear bright blood which is very unusual for me! I keep u updated if u remind me! I think it’s also Important to talk about side effects because my dad started same time as me taking it and after 2 days he broke out in an itchy rash and his hands were extremely swollen and he had to take anti histamine pills and it lasted for a few days
recommendations for a good berberine supplement please
Maybe. I've been taking 1 x berberine 500mg capsule daily for about a month. I've noticed I feel less hungry than during my last 5 years doing keto/carnivore with intermittent fasting.
When do you take it? With a meal?
@@darkwingduck-2-1 immediately after my meal
That's a low dose, take 2
Sounds like it's just placebo.
What is a good brand
Can you take it while fasting?
Thank you Dr Berg! You are truly America’s Dr.
Yes, you can.
My natural pharmacist recommended i take 500mg 3xa day..1 with every meal. She also mentioned you can take 6 a day, so 2 with every meal. For now i am starting on 3xa day. Will let you know how it goes.
Is there an ideal time to take this? While fasting? Or with a meal??
One of the best.... Dr Eric Berg
I used it in your product and it TRULY stopped my appetite and cured my insulin resistance. I took it with every meal and my appetite just went away and eventually all of the eating issues I had vanished!
Oregon Grape has a massive amount of berberine in it and it has antibiotic properties that are incredible. It helps everything in the gut. Berberine is also a fantastic anti parasitic. We use it on ourselves as well as our cats, dogs, animals. A lot of Persian recipes also call for berberine berries (Japanese Sun Barberry) grow your own supply in a garden or really generous pot.
Thanks for sharing!
Hello - which part of Oregon grape do you consume? Right now it’s yellow.
@@Drbergcan you take bernerine if you’ve had a renal transplant??
Under the bark. Scrape the bark off @@MM-mk5og
All food that is bitter is good for our digestive system. Ppl tend to avoid it but shouldnt.
Which is the best berberine product to take? There are soo many on the market.
Noone is recommending a brand, i also ask.
I tried Berberine..twice..the first time I had been taking 1000mg per day for 5-7 days then I got violently sick. It was like food poisoning. Vomiting, diarrhea, chills, sweats. It took me 2 days to get my fluid intake back up. I thought it WAS food poisoning but wasn’t sure because the Berberine was a new supplement to my regimen. Fast forward to last Sunday. I had again been taking Berberine & after my 2nd dose of 500mg, I was again violently sick. Just like before & it mimicked food poisoning symptoms. I’m 62 & I’ve NEVER been sick like that!
I am glad you are honest about this. I hope they don't delete the comments with negative experiences, because some people are more sensitive than others. I would like to hear what dr. Berg has to say about your experience.
Allergic?
I've been reading reviews on good brand Berberine (Now brand) as well and this seems common. How awful, now I'm afraid to try it. People got violently ill for several hours on Amazon for the 1-star reviews.
Could be bacteria die off. I had to half dose and it improved side effects and still lowered appetite
Can I use this if I only want to improve my health? And how should I take this?
Apple Cider Vinegar works a treat, too.
To lose weight?
@@ehswissie bloodsugar control, it slows down digestion and helps lower bloodsugar. It also gives energy.
Grossly overrated.
I add that too, big fan!
@@vince1229 Worked for me like a charm. That's a sample size of 1, I know, but there are semi-decent studies out there (obviously not gonna be backed by high-scale clinical trials like licensable pharmaceuticals) that affirm it's efficacy.

Can it be used while breastfeeding?
If taken daily, it's important to take a break from it every two weeks. I have been using berberine/goldenseal for 40 years.
My grandparents were pioneers in the alternative health movement.
Goldenseal has been a lifesaver.
It helps to heal many illnesses from colds to diverticulosis.
Respect its power and use only for two weeks at a time.
How long should be the break after 2 weeks of use
@@just_a_woman-h9s At least two weeks.
what's the best brand to buy for berberine and goldenseal?
Does berberine cause constipation? Because i already suffer from that , so what should i take if i was to take berberine?
Dr. Berg is as solid as they get! Much respect!!!
Berberine and Ginseng are not compatible with bloodthinners, right? Did you mention it? I didn't hear it. Unfortunately I have to take bloodthinners and I was advised not to consume berberine and Ginseng.
That is why I thought it might be an important information for some viewers
I have been taking Berberine to help keep my blood sugar low Plus diet . I stopped taking the diabetes meds and this works better for me with no side effects .
What’s the daily dose recommendation?
Fantastic video Dr.Berg You help so many people Thank you!
Thank you! I'm glad that you liked this post.
Should i have keto diet with berbrine ?
I take berberine 2x 500 mg daily (metformin gave me extreme muscle pain after a few years ) and I use Ozempic. Only the last one made me lose some weight. Another tip is Alpha lipoic acid to help against or reverse (if its not gone too far) nerve damage. Main thing will always be cut down on carbs.
did u take any vaccines last 6 years??
Have you noticed if taking Berberine and Ozempic cause low blood sugars? Or would you say your numbers are normal?
Dr Berg I started using berberine after I saw your video to lower insulin resistance and that's more than 6 months now and I have lost weight, I don't crave sugar and my blood sugar levels are now constant,when before I was pre-diabetic
Been on 1000 mg berberine. No weight loss, but raging diarrhea. Went off for 4 days now…starting to “get back to normal”
1000 mg sounds a lot he said in video 1mg -1.5mg
@@beverleydavies9109 no he said 1 Gram (G) not Milligram (mg). The amount Pine was taking was okay.
Is it safe to take while breastfeeding?
I recommend you consult with your doctor.
It really does work and lowers your appetite a great deal, it just calms down the hunger pangs which is all I need.
What brand and dose u do?
What brand of Berberine is the best to take?
Exactly why I love your videos, Dr. Berg!! Thank you.
I saw the doctors talking about it, and they were warning of the dangers. I called them out for recommending literal poison (pharmaceuticals) while on the same video warning about berberine! One came back and responded rather nastily to me too. Not very professional IMO.
Thanks again Dr. Berg.
Your recent vitamin d video has changed my life!
Congratulations
Good job!
This is no joke--I started taking berberine after losing a bit of weight with intermittent fasting and getting stuck at a certain weight for months (I wondered if it was insulin resistance). After I started taking this supplement, my weight has started to drop again. I'm surprised and so happy that something had FINALLY worked, and I look forward to more results! 🎉
How much do you take?! Thank you
Which brand do you use?
Combined with Milk thistle! It helps with absorption and is way more effective.
Good to know!
liver function is vital so milk thistle will help in almost all combos
Sure. Stay safe and healthy.
Theres always the one person trying to make things more complicated
Source? "Trust me bro"?
Hope doc will answer my question.
I use berberine for a week now and today i got green stool. Is this a good sign?
Green stool can sometimes happen when taking berberine. It's usually not a big deal and can be a normal reaction to the supplement.
@@Drberg
Thanks for answering
Reading the subject line, stopped me in my tracks. I started using Berberine about a month ago and without changing anything or even thinking of losing weight, I lost 6 pounds. My clothes are now too big for me. I was wondering why I lost so much weight all of a sudden and now I know, Berberine!!
Wow that’s amazing !
Why did you start to take berberine?
It is slightly concerning you didn't know the effects of berberine before you decided to take it..
Where do you get your Berberine?
What dose did you take please?
Dr. Berg, Is 1200 mg too much to take?
I started taking Berberine months ago when I researched the natural substitute for Ozempic and I must say it definitely works as long with a probiotic small exercise and clean eating
What brand did you purchase?
@@mrspatterson8446 it’s called We Like Vitamins gluten free and vegetarian
I've been taking 1500 mg berberine for about 4 months. I am needing to lose about 100 lbs. I haven't noticed any appetite reduction. My glucose levels have always been good, so no change there either. Should I try taking more of the berberine?
Yes we take it every day, my blood sugar was 19 way to high,so I took berbrine, gymema,African wild mango,white mulberry and got my sugars down to nine ,I refused ozempic,so my doctor prescribed victoza plus I follow a keto diet and fast which also helps.
It can cause anxiety and depression in some people. Please start slowly and listen to your body and mind
Dr. Berg, can you recommend a brand that we can use?
It's from the bayberry plant
Can you please recommend a brand for berberine? I am really confused what to buy... 500 mg? Or more?

Berberine takes away all my hunger . I can go days without food which is not great . But man it makes me so constipated. I already suffer from constipation and gastrointestinal issues . I wish it wouldn’t do that
I used it for a very long time, and for sure, help with blocking sugar craving.
I was not even thinking about eating anything sweet. I was just in the bottom line to become diabetes.
Thank you to that. I'm no longer interested in the sweet food I learned after using berberine.
To me, berberine is a very good natural choice.
Yes, it can be the healthier option! I took berberine, it doesn't cause nausea or digestive disorders like Ozempic, only that the limit dose I tested was 1.5 grams/day, descending at 0.5 mg/day. I do not know of side effects at higher doses, in terms of digestive/pancreatic tolerance or other systemic side reactions.
After 2 weeks, clinically I noticed a reduction in the severity of insulin resistance, in the sense of obtaining the desired results after the hypocaloric and normal hypoglycemic diet. I know immediately when a diet starts to work for me! And most importantly, the decrease was in centimetres, not the weight on the scale, and I lost visceral fat mass!
Thanks for all the excellent information on your site, Dr. Berg!
😄
coincidentally I also associated S.O.D. (SuperOxide Dismutase) & Collagen Complex for cellulite, much improved. to me it is a real scientific discovery that gives results! I admit, administered in the short term, 4-6 weeks
You clinically noticed a reduction did you?

Glad that I can be of help!
Is it beneficial to take berberine if you’re not diabetic or pre diabetic? Or should I not take it?
Berberine is most known for helping to support healthy blood sugar levels and making insulin more sensitive.
Berberine attacks insulin resistance, which is at the heart of most health problems like a fatty liver, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, and high LDL cholesterol. Anything that helps decrease insulin resistance will also help support weight loss.
Other potential benefits of berberine:
• It helps shrink plaque in the arteries
• It has antithrombotic effects
• It may help improve the symptoms of Alzheimer's
• It greatly improves the dawn phenomenon
• It can support the conversion of vitamin D to its active form
• It can help prevent cardiac muscle fibrosis after injury
• It's neuroprotective
• It can help improve your mood
• It may help with the side effects of withdrawal
• It's antimicrobial, antiviral, and antibacterial
• It can help support your immune system
• It can help reverse mitochondrial damage and increase the number of mitochondria
I admire you and your work.
Thank you. appreciate your message.
I have chronic migraine. Will this exasperate it? Are there side effects with any meds? What is a good dose? Thank you.
I read that it can help to rid the body of parasites too. So that alone will help with weight loss. I have been taking it and I have been feeling better and more energy. It’s good for several things, all of which I need!
