Berberine is phenomenal. Keeps my HbA1c at 4%
Wow that’s low
@ilevitatecs2 Apart of berberine, what do you do to have an hb1c so low?
Didn’t know that 4% was considered low, on my bloodwork the range goes from 3% to 6%. Mine was at 4.2% last time I checked. I would say everything that prevents glycation in the body, i.e. improve glucose control and mitigate blood sugar spikes via diet, muscle mass, fasting and take all the Anti-glycative substances that exist out there. Which is what I do.
@@davidcarrasco516 I don’t do anything extraordinary. It’s likely genetics. I do the whole weight lifting/light cardio (no extreme vo2 max like these guys), sauna/cold plunge, and limit carbs to vegetables. For some markers, either you have it or you don’t unfortunately. Conversely, my HRV is exceptionally low in the 40s throughout the night even with a RHR of 46-49…
Substances like?
Vitamin Shoppe sells a supplement called “Advanced Blood Sugar Support” under their Vthrive brand. It has Berberine, Chromium, Cinnamon, and Alpha Lipoic Acid. I take it in the morning and its worked great for keeping my appetite under control. It also helped knocked by A1c down by ~0.7%. Though I’ve no idea how much of its effectiveness is due to the Berberine compared to all the other ingredients.
you must have supplement bottles falling out of your kitchen cabinets every time you open them
Lmao, not really
I do. 😅
It is my case.
Would be interesting to see your take on the studies saying that berberine could prolong the QT interval of the heart through messing with herG.
When I took berberine during my 3 day fast – ie every day (1g/day) on the third day PM my bl sugar levels were 3.2 mmol/L (I felt dizzy), compared to another three day fast when I took berberine only on the first day – my b s levels were 3.8 mmol/L at the end.
what a greatg video – thankyou
Thanks for sharing! Now that my weight is healthy I’m more focused on building muscle, so I only plan on taking berberine during occasional extended fasts (36-48 hours).
Great content as usual. Thank you!🙏🏻
I’m a healthy weight, but I still take berberine daily. I think the autophagy benefit is worth it, and I feel like it potentiates my fasts. It’s also known to reduce the effects of caffeine, and that is definitely something I’ve noticed. I like it though. It sort of feels like taking caffeine with l-theanine.
Caffeine + L theanine is a great mental focus tool
At your fitness level, one would not expect huge improvements, so even those reported are not insignificant. An obese person would probably experience much more significant result, as you explained.
Taken it for about 6 months now love it. Think i was a bit insulin resistant though.
I would say that these measurement results are within normal fluctuations, without necessarily having a reason.
I had incredible gas issues with ozempic and I just couldn’t overcome it. I finally had to stop. I wound up losing weight with oregano, oil and allulose
Can you elaborate on your protocol?
Please do a video like this by taking “gymnema sylvestre” for a month. Dying to see how effective that stuff is.
Young, thin, muscular, very physcially active — absoluetly NOT the person of interest to see significant change.
💯
If it had worked in a healthy person, it would be a really good supplement though.
Taking 1000mg metformen at night, Mayo clinic says metformen can affect B12 abortion. Feeling fatigue last 3 weeks, call for doctor appointment, blood work came back and iron levels are fine, ferritin levels high, red blood cells all messed up. Ask her to test B12 and they did not, but blood work indicates low B12, set up my own B12 blood work for next week before doctor appointment. My conclusion low b12 causing Anemia. 67 years old, healthy lifestyle. Take charge of your own health, make a list of questions for your doctor. Doctors should track Anemia before it get this bad😢
A1c at 4.5 since I’m using berberine 500mg twice a day since six month. From a1c 5. Lipid dropped too. Triglycerides are 50, I thought it was insane already, but congratulations for your 40. That is really low ahah.
Have you considered taking a statin to lower you LDL to below 60 mg/dl?
I take berberine. It does lower blood sugar. But not by much. I think it’s a C+ on the supplement support scale. It tends in my experience cause hair shedding and that not good for people like me with alopecia.
Great Channel! How mutch NAC do People take during illness?
I’m 50 , have been taking 1.0g daily (one capsule morning , one evening)every day for more than a year. I’m still alive and healthy bloods recently.
