I got all those symptoms.

I asked my primary doctor for a Dutch test and she looked at me like I was crazy

What’s your opinion on Berberine? Is it safe? Side effects to watch out for?

Thank you

I thought if you had abnormally high cortisol it means you have a medical thing going on?

Such a simple and clear way explaining Vagus nerve 😊 thank you

This is great! I'm going to share with my endocrinologist. My ferritin is at 5 and I have hypothyroidism. However my hemoglobin was normall and my doctor wasn't concerned. I've been tired for a year. I just got an iron infusion and I'm hoping I'll feel like a new woman soon.

Good video Ty

hi Dr. Lyzenga-Dean, i was prescribed clomid and ovulation injection and for one cycle progesteron from the gynecologist despite the fact that i am ovulating. After this stimulation my estrogen level is very high:330pg/ ml, tested on 3.cycle day.How long does it take to regulate it from your experience? many thanks🙏

I started it a week ago. Gave me constipation and I am have been doing intermittent fasting for 4 years. Well, after berberine it has opened my appetite eating more than ever. 😳 not good for me.

Very helpful . I tried ashwaganda and with only 1 use my stress bloating was gone and I stress hives also reduced . I sleep so so much better and along with it started taking good multivitamins which are helping me to stay active and not feel slothy all day 😂 . Thank you for posting this video

I wish you practiced in Virginia. Your videos are awesome.

This is spot on for me. I am a 58 year old guy but started feeling fatigued and more anxious last Fall and it got really bad during the holidays especially in regards to sleep. My CBC results were in the mid normal but I paid to get a vitamin B test and it included an iron panel and everything was low normal but Ferritin of 25 ug/ml and B12 of 1483. I started taking 20mg Heme iron every morning with 2mg copper for cerruloplasmin. I have low stomach acid that I treat with Betaine HCL and Apple Cider vinegar plus I was taking a tom of Zinc since COVID started. My theory was that the Zinc was blocking iron and copper absorption plus low stomach acid also contributed to be not getting minerals from foods. I also started taking liquid ionic minerals (magnesium, copper, zinc, and calcium) too. This week my B12 was around 800 and my Ferritin was 61 ug/ml. I have more energy and my sleep and anxiety are better. My hair thinned alot and it has stopped shedding as much. My target is 100 ug/ml and hopefully my hair will start regrowing. The low ferritin definitely caused me to become hypothyroidal.

Great video from a pretty lady

Thank you for the information.

i was told that i have traction alopecia whats the difference?

I wish you could do the Dutch test based on my lab results, my physician who ran my test didn’t know what I was talking about lol

Which brand does she recommend?

Brand to buy. Im not diabetic but want to drop weight and is perimenopause and prefer something more natural..

10:46 Hi Dr. Kate I like your video very much. Please I was diagnosed of ovarian cyst with copious internal echoes ( Vol= 255.2) The size 9.84×6.36×7.79cm Dr. Kate please what medicine can you prescribe for me.

Excellent dr

I lost my hair through chemotherapy I had brest cancer now it all a way why is it taken to long to grow

I just started this week i will be bk in 4 months for an update

My medical doctor here in Canada refused to talk about Berberine. He would rather have me take a chemical than a natural supplement. I was on Ozempic for 9 months until I told my doctor I wasn't going to to take it anymore. I regained half the weight and my blood sugar skyrocketed. Now I'm on the carnivore diet, have lost 10 pounds in a week and my blood sugar is at 5.0. Goes to show you that you really need to be your own health advocate. I'm still on metformin but I'm going to ditch that as well once I go for my check up and start back on Berberine.

That was really helpful❤

This is a very clear video, love it!!

Hi Dr Kate, I am non diabetic person but want to use Berberine to lower my cholesterol and wouldn’t mind some weight loss , is it safe to use?

I just found out that my ferritin levels are super low but my iron levels are good. I eat a mostly meat based diet. I’m not sure why my ferritin would be low while iron is good. I do have Hashimoto’s but not sure that would have anything to do with it. Would you be able to shed light on this? Thanks so much🌸

What a useful video. Thanks so much for sharing. Always learning!

Amazing video 👌 i have a question? Which brand do you recommend??? 🙏

when on a thyroid replacement and a need for estrogen (low levels) what types of estrogen will impact thyroid levels and what dose increase is required to use patches or vagianl products? How to do the half life reduction in a thyroid dose as well please.

Thank you. I really need to work with someone like you as my current medical provider is KP (Medicare Advantage Plus) & a "physical' consists of blood pressure, weight, temperature, brief check of the heart & lungs with a stethoscope. Doctors cannot spend more than 15 minutes with any patient. I have a complicated medical history & there is no examination of existing surgical sites, skin, glands or really anything else. There is no discussion of any issues. My history is essentially unknown to my PCP. I asked for & got a CBC because I feel so tired so much of the time that I wanted to check for anemia. I definitely have iron deficiency anemia. I am vegan (except for occasional eggs or fish/seafood). Is there a place to find functional medical care in Northern CA (Solano, Yolo & Sacramento County area)?

Very good explanation berbery is wonderful medicament for lose weight don't be afraid to use

Thank you ❤

Would this interact with NP thyroid in any way?

So, if you get female pattern hair loss due to menopause and drop in estrogen, what's the cure?

All my iron tests came back low after a miscarriage . My doctor put me on an iron supplement but when I take it my legs are very stiff and weak alto walk on, when I stop taking it this symptom goes away ? What could be the reason for this

Last time I went into a hair saloon was when I was 17. They were always complaining about my thin and dry hair so i stopped going there. Then a lot of money wasted at the Derm only to hear ,,try this shampoo etc". I reasearched the causes by my self and so, at 24 I decided to get my thyroid tested. The doctor was so surprised like ,,why? You're so young you can't have thyroid problems". Turns out I did. Hypo type. She said if you start medication, your hair will get better. It didn't. Also micropolycistic ovary which I can't treat for other reasons. I kinda lost faith in the medical system and started on topical minoxidil. It's not working great but it does something. Today I'm 34 and this is still so painful to me, I'm crying almost everyday because of it.I'm terrified of what my hair will be like in 10years from now. Anyway, I'll try to test my ferritin and go to a trychologyst again. Let's not lose our hope in this battle!

I also have pain sometimes durinf and after sex

Does dried berberine fruits works? I assume the good stuff are always less processed and I do not trust most of the supplement brands

I have always been informed that calcium blocks iron absorption yet I think you are suggesting the opposite.

Where can i buy it? I looked in CVS and Walgreens. No go.

I saw this just in time because my iron test was low and I have been shopping for an iron supplement. Of course my lab results say my ferritin is in the "safe" range, but I don't think 49 is the number I'm looking for 😮 So thank you for bringing my attention to this! I downloaded your ferritin guide so hopefully I can get myself on track and stop sleeping my life away. Again, Thank you!

Day 21 of my hormone test showed lower estrogen than progesterone. What could help with that?

I just ordered some and I'm going to take it. I've gained way too much weight because of drinking too much and bad liver. So I'm hoping this will help, along with the cleanse and liver cleanse I'm doing to get back to my desired weight. I'm also 45 so... I'm sure menopause is coming around the mountain!

My ferritin level is a 6 and I have not felt well for a long time. I went to many doctors who would do blood work and say I was fine. Finally I got a doctor who tested me for ferritin. I had no idea what ferritin was.
