User Reviews for berberine

I posted a few weeks ago on the berberine and would like to update my progress. I've lowered my A1-C from 8.4 to 7.7 which is a great drop. I'm having a bit of an increase in numbers right now but I'm sick so that always makes them go higher. I'm VERY pleased with this product and will continue to use it.

My A1C was 7.4 and within 7 months that I've been using berberine, my A1C went down to 5.7. It really works for me.

I was vacationing in China and Japan. Somewhere along the way I ate some bad food. I had very bad diarrhea and a low grade fever for several days. It cleared up within a day or 2 taking the Berberine. Just in time for my return to home, otherwise they might have thought I had Zika or something, and not let me back in the country.

I have had type 2 diabetes for 12 years and have been on metformin and most recently januvia. My blood sugar has slowly crept up from the 150 to the low 200's. Started taking Berberine about three weeks ago and have had steady fasting blood sugars at 150. The only drawback I have experienced is looseness of my bowels. I'm hoping that over time that the diarrhea will subside!

since using berberine 2x 900mg daily, my wake up numbers have dropped 20 points ,averaging 120,down from 140,.,.

Take 3 (500mg) day on #41. No negative side effects but BG seem to have dropped significantly. Will take for 3 months. Have not informed my Doctor yet, but look forward to next a1C. Last 5/17/2016 = 7.2

Berberine has brought my A1C down from 7.5 to 6.1 in a 1 year period

diabetes

2 times a day 400 by Nutritional concepts Very significantly lowered my LDL and triglycerides. [taken with silybum marianum] It did not lower my glucose readings, nor raise HDL.

Noted increase in Chemical sensitivity, liver tenderness then increased inflammatory pain on it. Question if due to genetically poor detox ability?

Two months and my AC1 level dropped from 7.2 to 5.7

I have taken it over 1 month, I have no noticeable change in my blood sugar readings,fasting or otherwise and recently I have been having dizzy spells, this is the only thing I have added to my diet so am wondering if it is the berberine????

A great find for me. Easy to keep appetite under control taking this twice a day.

It has lowered my fasting glucose to below 100. I have yet to see my HgbA1c in 3 months.

Too soo to determine effectiveness, I had an A1c of 6.1, but I have a low iron which could present a false high. Are we supposed to be on this forever or just until the tests are normal?

I have PCOS, high testosterone but my blood sugar has never been high. I don't eat a lot of sugar and I hate having to go get Metformin just for PCOS. I started taking berberine to lower my testosterone. I don't know if this was meant for weight loss but my weight has finally been coming off (I've always exercised regularly) and I don't have much of a sweet tooth anymore. I can't even finish a cookie (not that I'm complaining) I feel like this product is definitely helping me balance out my PCOS symptoms, more so than Metformin ever did. Read More Read Less

Taking this medicine caused weakness and pimples.

I was taking Invokana as well as Actose to control my type II diabetes but my doctor took me off of the Actose and switched me to Berberine and my FBS has actually improved. My A1c has improved as well. VERY happy using Berberine to help control my blood sugar levels.
