Perfect level of detail and great amount of humor throughout. You're a great teacher.

I love the lectures, but the drawings make it just that much better. I want to make t-Shirts from all of them!

Same here I itched all over my body and had to take antihistamine..was so disappointed couldn't continue taking it..just 3 days and had to stop.

[@Dlindo8892]

Great lecture. Answered the questions I had about berberine. 👍

[@KatieZeldin]

Omg, this lecture is fantastic! I wish at least half the teachers in my university were as brilliant as you😊

[@patricethomas9698]

Thank you so much. I have listed to so many other lectures and yours is the first that helped me to truly understand how Berberine works as I am prediabetic

Thank you Dr. Been and Dr. Paul Merik .

Thank you for your support!!

I have MCAS, with many sensitivities to things, and Berberine is now an addition to my list. It caused flushing, brain fog.

[@6789uiop]

were you able to isolate it or did it occur when you added it and that was the only change?

[@drsethsr]

​@@6789uiop It was only change. I even broke open a 1000mg capsule and maybe tried 200mg, and still flared.

[@mariec4275]

Me too. I had major brain fog, dizziness, gas, bloating, nausea. I was only on 200mg. One time a day. I took it with a large meal. My BS was not greatly changed on it. I could only do three days. Pretty bad.

[@6789uiop]

thank you doctor Sayed! ..and our pal Paul :) i' have renewed interest in berberine since my wife's cancer. hope there's more info on 'more insulin release' when insulin is anabolic vs decreased Warburg effect of glucose fueling cancer growth. the surgeon and anesthesiologist had her stop berberine, made sense. but now i need to learn more. most good studies were out of china when i started researching it years ago.

[@leaperrins8373]

You would need to look into this and see if its suitable or something your wife would consider, but may be try methylene blue. Always research interactions with current medications though!

[@carolematar3760]

Excellent explanation thank you

[@jjperry3995]

Thank you so much. With that mechanism I’m thinking the dose can be pre, post or during a meal. Is this correct.

what effect will 660nm and 850nm have? many light panels sell with these levels.
