Berberine also helps rebuild the myelin sheath on our nerves do to not being able to absorb V-B12 and a B-1 deficiency. Which causes a breakdown of nerve to brain or visa versa for signals which causes MS and other autoimmune disease. Berberine also is a companion herb that synchronizes with other vitamins to enhance the purpose of the supplement like Milk Thistle for example, for Liver Health which is also awesome for diabetic people.

Wow your comment is vital info for me. I have methylation issues and am also recovering from a brain injury from a car accident. I reversed a dementia dx in my early 20s caused from severe b12 deficiency and severe demyelination of the neurons in my brain. I did it with a sublingual methyl-b12 protocol and went on to graduate college with a 4.0. So recovering from the brain injury is the most annoying thing ever. I added berberine last week to my list of supplements and had no idea it helps rebuild the myelin sheath. I can't thank you enough for this info. I have also reversed a friend of mine's early Parkinson's with the same protocol. I suspect MS sufferers would also benefit. Unfortunately, b12 is on the target list. It's hard to find a good quality one that isn't compromised.

Every one of those benefits are related to one thing, and that is the decrease in insulin resistance. In other words, berberine, Lowers fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1c because it decreases insulin resistance. Berberine improves lipids because it decreases insulin resistance. Berberine improves PCOS because it decreases insulin resistance. So on and so forth.

If I talk to my physician about Berberine, they would say you are a quack. 🤣🤣🤣 That's why I'm here.

Excellent content!! I presume that you reference talking to your doctor as a disclaimer because most docs wouldn’t have a clue about this. They are pharmaceutically trained and seldom understand how any substance, outside of that, can be beneficial etc. They’re licensing precludes the use of anything non pharmaceutical! It’s a very sad situation. There are few that are willing to practice outside their licensing and legal parameters. This is why patients meet with such strong resistance from a medical doctor. It’s not that they don’t care. They have to legally practice what they were taught and licensed to do. There are exceptions, but very few!

You are exactly right - they are sadly trained to treat symptoms and NOT ROOT causes - and will write a prescription for any and everything. The state of medicine is beyond sad, frustrating and disgusting. Our "medical care" here in the U.S. has become corporate medicine - where patients are shuffled from Doctors, to specialist to specialist - the root causes of their ailments never being discovered, and rarely being treated. Big Pharma and insurance companies run the show. Most Drs. are no longer "healers".

So true. I presume I’ve been fired by my doctor, as they won’t answer the phone when I call, or return any of my messages. Why? Because I wanted to wait on getting the shot. You know the one, that requires boosters. Not because I’m an anti-vaxxer, but because I’m the person all pharmaceutical ads are refuting to when they list off all the adverse side effects. I almost died from Farxiga after being switched from the other deadly oral medication for diabetes, Invokana. Any way, this same doctor that discovered the cause of Diabetic Ketoacidosis that rendered me unconscious and comatose for 4 days (Farxiga) got very agitated when I asked if I could wait until some of the science to clear before I took another NON FDA approved medication. I really was hoping to get vaccinated, as I do have several comorbidities. Now here I am looking for a new physician, I literally haven’t been treated for my diabetes since mid 2020. I check my glucose regularly, and I now have a health BMI, losing 50+ pounds. I used to require an insulin pump. Haven’t had it attached to me in 2 years. When I started losing weight I adjusted down the insulin dosing as I started experiencing hypoglycemia. My sugars run between 150-200 so I’ve added walking and burberine I’m hopeful. Funny thing is, my chronic rash is gone, I’m no longer dealing with overactive bladder, and I’m no longer intensely hungry, and I feel satiated much sooner, I think my food portions are about half of what I used to feel I needed. I’ve only been on Berberine about a week, and I’m going to stick with it. I’m healthier now in my mid 59’s than I ever was in my late 30’s and 40’s.

The “consult your physician” inclusion is to add a layer of legal protection as a disclaimer. In turn, most physicians don’t want to recommended or instruct a patient on using a supplement such as Berberine. Why would they though? They wouldn’t be protected from legal action if there was a bad reaction. There are so many supplement companies where quality control and source is unknown. I have had some doctors that won’t discuss at all. Period. Then others I have appreciated who explain they can’t professionally recommend but support your trying. Not all doctors are in the dark ages… it’s unfair to lump them all into one category!
