Berberine is like 4 or 5 supplements in one. I can save money and stay healthy. It doesnt seem to have any ill effects for me so far. Don't need cinnamon or bitter melon, don't need an anti parasitic, don't need bone broth, don't need to OD on garlic to lower cholesterol. This is great. I just stumbled into this stuff.
@Evan Hodge hi there, I’m curious as to what are long term effects ? Is it bad for the body, it’s very popular but I’ve never jumped on bandwagon bc seems risky.
@Evan Hodge you do realize all of our ancestors were in keto right lol. and skittles, cotton candy and soda are all new inventions. i don't get people with their 'long term' keto effects, literally the natural state of humans and all animals is keto.
You are an excellent researcher, your presentations are concise and presented very clearly using your whiteboard. And you get to the point. Thank you sharing.
It does something for sure. Starting taking for cholesterol support and I lost 9 lbs in a little over a month without this being my intention. Lost all cravings after a few days of starting.
Thanks for another great video! I started the berberine about a week ago. I also added fulvic acid, cod liver oil, and digestive enzymes. I am on a strict regimen that includes IF(18-6) & OMAD, numerous supplements and herbs, and a strict keto diet. I am hopeful! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge! Peace and blessings 🙏

@@te644 i heard so many good things about it. But good to know that it didnt supress hunger even it lowered your blood sugar. But if you wouldnt have taken it and your blood sugar would be higher...wouldn´t you be more hungry?
No wonder it's so expensive here in the UK. I heard fenugreek, bitter melon, turmeric (you mentioned) and cinnamon are also good for blood sugar, and relatively inexpensive too. I use them mixed in combination and take a teaspoon full after excess carbs, lol. Obviously Berberine has other benefits too, informative video, thanks.
Perhaps you should research and growv it yourself if possable. I developed a dudden very as in VERY strong craving for arugula...known also as rocket lettuce. When I could no longerv find enogh in the store,bI found a Weed & Feed place snd bought seeds. They grew easily and I not only seeded my lawn but thstb of my neighbor's. I ate up tob10 cups a day. I was not sure why but I knew inherently it was not hurting me. Quite the contrary. It was after Inwas getting better I was ablecto research it, finding out it was the highest scource of NO2 and vit K. Apparently, not knowing yet I was long time uber flouritoxic (to a less aggressive extent... mercury toxic), it had been helping me clearnout detox pathways. I learned to trust & listen to what my cells need. If it does no harm, you can sure tell when it had a positive effect.

What irritates the GI lining is the fillers they use, Absorption is blocked do to magnesium Stearate coating the insides. That's why I changed to KoNefancy Liposomal Berberine gel Caps 1500
I started on 1200 mg and I have been fine.l.I do alternate day fasting and take it on fasting days also. The only thing for me is I had to move it towards bedtime since it makes me a little tired as it does drive your sugar down.
Thank you Doctor for important informations. I can't take Metformin, feeling very bad after. But my doctor doesn't want even hear about Berberine. So l decided to take it on my risk and not discuss with my doctor. Best greetings from Poland 🙂
Yes I have to laugh when they all say ‘consult your Doctor’! The average GP has absolutely no idea about the majority of supplements! I know I know far more. Their medical training contains almost NOTHING about nutrition or supplements! This is just ‘passing the buck’ with the exception of when a patient may be on a medication that potentially will interact with the particular supplement.
@@nurse580 Correct 100% I have to give med advice to my PCD. She's always pushing statins and xrays for everything. I bet she gets bribes from pharmaceutical companies to push their drugs.
They have to say that … to cover themselves from legal issues … cause most drs don’t have a clue about anything nutritional or natural. Glad for this guys info 👍
Thank you this is excellent information…most doctors don’t know much about supplements…but I would think to check with my doctor if taking pharmaceutical drugs…what interactions there might be..
I love binge watching AND note taking on YOU! I greatly appreciate your expertise! I do not have watch TV nor do I have a streaming account...but this I appreciate!!!
I take berberine in the form of Barberry tea which I harvest from the branches of the barberry bush so it is difficult 4 me to get an exact dosage. I drink small amounts throughout the day and have been doing so for about a year without any apparent side effects.
Please, I could not catch what you said after Resveratrol. The closed caption says it was "terminate" but I think it might have been curcumin? Please tell me what it was. I just found your channel recently and am very impressed with your explanations of many different ailments. I have liked and subscribed and look forward to watching more of your informative videos and will share with friends and family. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos!
Why can't you take it life long if it positively affects your health? Does it permanently correct those issues..ie: blood glucose levels? Won't your health issues return once you stop taking it?
You're good!!! All ready to try your directives....but I'm sure you'd agree that mental calmness needs to be a big part of any health related regimens...and detoxing...I have lots of amalgam fillings...so I need a detoxing regimen too...cheated minerals. Thanks thanks much appreciate you.
Maybe finding one that has a vast knowledge about them is harder but finding a MD who is open and willing to work with their patients is way more common than people think!
Thank you for who you are🌹 and for sharing your knowledge We need more people like you wow🌱🐛🐢 you make it so easy for the common to understand 🌬🌊🏄♂️🌏🌍🌎
Not sure... Needed to take this for leaky gut.. Started for one week.. Noticed my stool a bit yellow from the coloring of the supplement.. So far the blood work seems fine.. Ill give it a break for now.
Your video is easy to understand. I was wondering if it would harm me to take it with a low dose blood pressure medication and after gastric bypass. Bypass was 11 years ago.
Thank you Doc!! As there are quite a few without diabetes that take metformin for an anti-aging so to speak protocol, would berberine work the same and what dosage would work for this?
Does Berberine affect the Kidneys negatively. I have had Type 1 Dibeties for 33 years and of course it has affected my Kidneys in a negative way and I'm looking for help on that front.
Just found Dr. Sung. About to bungee watch his channel. I bought Berberine after research. I found a bottle but the dosage says *13,100 mg. That seems to be way higher that what’s recommended. How can they sell it at that dosage?
Great content!... immediately subbed after watching berberine videos! Do you have any coverage of MTHFR genetic differences and the Methylation cycle... maybe how they impact our individual immune/detox systems when exposed to VIRUSES and other pathogens? I can't find any knowledgeable doctors covering this on YTube... you seem to be years ahead of most (99% of doctors make the rest of you look bad! 🙃), so fingers crossed!
I am taking Berberin now for 1 year, paused inbetween for 3-4 weeks every now and then. If I take 2x 500 mg with each meal (I only eat 2 meals a day and start eating about noon) I can stay on my weight whatever I eat: burgers, fries, on vacation All-in, drinks, cocktails. - if I do IF and low carb, I lose about 300 grams of weight a day with 2000 mg berberin a day. If I add sports, I even can lose 500 gram a day.....I also take magnesium and pottasium, multivitamin with zink and iron
Does pepper (piperine) modulate the absorption of berberine the way it does for, say, turmeric? And is that a good thing to reduce the liver's ability to filter the substances out?
Dr. Sung, just found your channel while researching Berberine. Thank you! I have a question regarding the impact of Berberine on muscle growth. I understand from other research I’ve read that it may have a negative effect on muscle growth if taken around workouts. What I’m unsure of is the timing of taking Berberine in conjunction with weightlifting. I would be fine if I could take it on “off” days from the gym and still receive the other benefits of Berberine. Do you have any information on this subject. Thanks again!
i´m not male, so i´m no Boy builder but i´ve heard to take it directly before your training, so i would say 30 min before. Because the beberine helps to transport glucose into the muscle, so that the glucose can be convderted and adapted. Have you already taken it regularly?
I have yet to find a regular doctor willing to talk to me a out any kind of natural supplement. Maybe a natural doc, but I can't afford an alternative doctor.
Honestly I dont bother with asking a doctor about nutrition. They know nothing lol. Its embarrassing when I have to school them on basics. I don't go to conventional docs, complete waste of time
I never ever managed to break below 80kgs, which for my height is slightly more than it should be. My height is 180cm.

Right now I weigh 83kgs at 33 y.o! I will update in one month!
Update, 2 weeks later. I'm going to increase the daily dosage to 2500mg of Berberine. This is because with 2000 mg I have ABSOLUTELY no side effect and for the first time in my adult life I can actually look behind me and see part of my butt and not the spare tire I was used to seeing around my belly. My 4 pack is starting to show. I'm extremely excited I found this supplement. Also, I'll be having a generic blood test in two weeks to see how things are going.

Taco sauce with as splash of berberine would be nice.
