This may sound crazy but water fasting and maybe intermit fasting couldt possibly help heal people if they are not far gone. I know of people who were sick, had diseases, etc and after water fasting there illness reversed. look up water fasting and intermit fasting for cell regeneration and autophagy.

Which milligram is best? I'm seeing 400mg, 500mg, 1000mg, 1200mg, 2000mg, 3400mg, 4700mg, 13100mg...etc. it keeps changing. Also, some say Berberine plus Ceylon cinnamon or chromium or HCL (not sure what that is) or Bitter Melon with Turmeric Milk Thistle, or Alpha Lipoic Acid & Grape Seed. It's all very confusing and I'm not sure where to start or which will help me. I feel like some of them are just throwing out key words that sound good, but I'm unsure. I've been LADA Type 1.5 Diabetic for years now and am trying to get this under control.

One other side effect not mentioned is that Berberine is a natural blood thinner. Anyone with bleeding problems, or who is taking a Rx blood thinner, should be cautious when supplementing with natural remedies. Do your research. There are many natural supplements that thin the blood. I have had nosebleed issues since childhood. I have taken Berberine for 7yrs, but I have to be careful not to take too high a dose at one time, or I spend the day tending a bloody nose that won't quit.

One of my sons was a nose bleeder too, up to age 11. My late mother burned a porcupine quill and let him breath in the smoke through his nose. After third application, he has never had a nose bleed again. (African folk lore medicine) im not suggesting you try, just sharing thats all.

My Dr. wanted to try me on Trulicity, but my insurance won’t cover it… But as far as Berberine… Dehydroberberine has way less side effects and lasts in your system longer. It does help lower Blood sugar, but I feel it didn’t help my fasting morning BG. My liver just wants to produce a lot and I’m not making enough insulin so compensate for the demand.

berberine is an alkaloid of Indian gooseberry (Berberis aristata). Can you please explain if this alkaloid is toxic to the body. Most plant alkaloids are poisonous. Are the (potential) side effects you mention in the video due to the toxicity of the berberine alkaloid? If this alkaloid is toxic to the body, how is the poison eliminated from the body? What substances does the body need to eliminate toxic substances from berberine? Thank you for the answer 🦋

At 6:24 you mention that berberine decreases insulin sensitivity by 44%. Did you mean "increases" (or decreases insulin "resistance")? Some support for that in the literature (Yin, 2014, PMID 18442638).

[@kenweidemoyer2221]

Good video . I can understand what you are talking about. Thank you for the information.

What happens when you STOP taking Berberine? Is this a lifetime habit like multivitamins? How long do you have to take it to maximize results or avoid side- affects?

[@ALICEMAYSLOVE8888]

Hi first off as always I truly appreciate your knowledge and time. I thank you so much for how you teach so many of us. I purchased some natural products that would help me. One of the products is berberine from another dr. I respect. But i did not see this video before purchasing and taking it. I been taking three caps a day for two weeks now. My sugar levels are lower but I got constipated and today I'm blocked very bad with abdominal pain. I looked up what I can take for constipation natural remedies and also what supplements cause constipation and wella Berberine was on the list. 😢 I am extremely greatful for your info here your sharing. And more than you will ever know you are a gift to the medical community of people that want to heal and not just be treated or on medication that causes serious side effects.

[@GoldCoastInvestor]

Another side effect of berberine is dizziness. Do you suggest dihydroberberine to prevent dizziness? Because I would think it would exasperate the side effect.

[@penniroyal4398]

Berberine was really hard on me, I am not sure why my body didn’t tolerate it but.. I found out if I took it before I went to sleep I was OK. My morning blood sugar was 200 and 120 is diabetic. As soon as I was up and moving around my blood glucose would go down due to movement. I joined a fitness club and workout everyday now and I am back to normal blood glucose levels but I do still take Berberine at night before sleep.

[@SugarMDs]

Thank you for sharing your experience! It's great to hear that you're back to normal blood glucose levels with regular exercise and finding a time that works for you to take Berberine. Everyone’s body reacts differently, and it’s important to listen to how yours responds. Keep up the good work with your fitness routine, and I’m glad to hear Berberine works well when taken before sleep. Stay healthy!

[@nicolejean-baptiste2058]

I don’t know which one to take. Glucose support or the berberine? I want to avoid taking metformin

[@pravoslavn]

OUTSTANDING !!! Thank you, Doc !

[@MrFernanrc]

I heard so much about this supplement, I bought it and took it after my dinner, I made my mom take it, telling her it would help her gut and lower sugar, which is so good for both of us. My mom told me at 2 am, her heart was racing and I went to the bathroom and it hit me, I couldn't stand up straight, soon I fell to the ground. I called emergency for my mom, I ran down stairs and drank water that seemed to fix my issue of dizziness. In the ER , they told my mom never to take this again, it has many side effects, I didn't see anything about this searching the internet other than someone on Amazon wrote, if your not a diabetic, you shouldn't take it, it can cause problems. I am afraid of trying it again. Amazon called me to talk to me about my issue and apologized for my experience. Never felt something like this before with other supplements.

[@placeholderprofile____]

you have jab side effects - tacycardia is one of the nine pages with no spaces side effects they tired to classify for 75 years! fortunately they are leaked. guaranteed it is not the berberine. I guarantee you are jabbed by the convid jab dont bother denying it. =/

[@isah1885]

I took Berberine for a couple months. I liked it because I lost some weight. I noticed that my hair was shedding a lot so I stopped.

[@SugarMDs]

Thank you for sharing your experience with Berberine! It’s great to hear that you noticed some benefits, like weight loss, but I understand that hair shedding can be concerning. Everyone’s body responds differently, and it’s always good to listen to what feels right for you. If you're interested, you might want to discuss this with a healthcare provider to see if there are ways to achieve similar results without side effects. Thanks again for contributing to the conversation!

[@serbanmike]

Berberine is a chemical, dr. Sugar, regardless of who licensed you, is not a herb, it is true it can come from herbs like European barberry, goldenseal, goldthread, Oregon grape, philodendron, and tree turmeric. And, yes, it can be found in some foods, which should be part of a healthy diet. Thank you, a lot, for your information. Keep up the good work.

I do have not the best vision out of nowhere all the sudden at night. According to the BMI i should weigh less than i do. This is the reason why i am inquiring ❤❤❤.. please and thank you ..

[@SugarMDs]

Thank you for sharing your story! Even without diabetes, it's important to focus on a healthy lifestyle to reduce your risk, especially with a family history. For weight loss, maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and perhaps using natural supplements like berberine (with your doctor's approval) could be helpful. Berberine has been shown to support metabolic health, but always consult a healthcare provider for advice tailored to your situation. Keep monitoring your health and stay proactive!

I personally have no problem taking 500 milligrams of Berberine 3 times a week. Probably not enough but I alternate between cinnamon and Fenugreek.

Yeah absorption of berberine is very poor unless you can get in 1500 mg a day in.

I must be in real trouble. I've been doing intermittent fasting for a couple of years now. Jogging, and I try to eat a somewhat keto style diet. Earlier this year I had a blood pressure issue and was put on meds. Today I was called by my doctor. I just had a physical yesterday and she called me back to test my A1c. I had elevated sugar in my fasting blood test. I have been losing a little weight all year. Down to 205. I do apple cider vinegar each morning or before my first meal and then at night before bedtime. I take a multi vitamin, D3, K2, magnesium turtle, and omega 3 cod liver oil. Now I'm at a loss on what's going on. I would hate to know what situation I would be in if was was just doing nothing and just doing the normal thing like most people. What to do now? I really don't want to have to rely on medication to live.

[@ava.artemis]

Some of us just have worse metabolism and are more prone to these troubles. I’ve been paleo-keto for 20+ years and I still have v sensitive blood sugar and terrible fat metabolism. I can’t slip up at all. But a Functional Medicine doctor could help you pinpoint WHY you have high blood pressure and what to do about it so you don’t have to take meds. Conventional medicine isn’t sophisticated enough to do that.

[@LThill-ks2uz]

You need to describe when best to take considering the time it takes to get into the system, and the limited time it is effective.
