What I like about your presentations is that you list all of these different factors that I've learned elsewhere (usually other youtube channels), and THEN you go over the trade-offs and don't talk as if a supplement is a magical cure. "There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs." - Thomas Sowell My favorite part was how you discussed dihydro berberine as being equally effective as berberine HCl. That's tremendously valuable information.

It's amazing. I've been using it because my feet hurt so bad and I learned about it from someone I've been listening to on utube now for well over 6 years. Whole on my healthy Keto journey I started to regress to my old ways of eating until I was no longer eating healthy. Well bigistake diebetis came roaring in. I did not want to give in to running to meds. Thankfully I learned about berberine and I use cinnamon everyday and have Kale shake Wholla! Pain gone sugar pretty much back to were it should be. I'm still a work in progress and on my way back into ketosis

Check out chromium sulphate glucose tolerance factor in diabetes on PubMed research - it's been used to reverse type 2 since the seventies - I took for two days and reversed mine over a year ago - tried vandium sulphate today 🤮🤢🤒🤣😅 made me run fast as centipedes I just took a bunch of vanadium sulphate without checking the dose or nothing 🤣🤔🙃

[@godofallgodswithnoothernam920]

I eat raw organic vegetables for over ninety percent of average days meal - fruit makes up most the rest. I know diet like this is best option - my drug, lowered insulin over 44% and insulin sensitivity over 44% so despite me diet, I still had to supplement. Chromium sulphate chemical grade (insulin/mimetic) Vanadium sulphate (insulin sensitivity) This is how to reverse type 2 Type 1 is different.

What kind of berberine is not stomach pain?

[@NerveDoctors]

Hi There. Berberine will only cause stomach pain if you're taking doses larger than 1000 mg, daily or if you have stomach issues that you may or may not be aware of. If you're taking less berberine than this and it upsets your stomach, that means you must work on your gut health. A good place to start is with a supplement called Gastroven by Premier Research Labs

Hi Gloria. If you are going to take berberine while on metformin you must make sure you are closely monitoring your glucose levels to ensure they don't drop too low. Make sure you keep an ongoing glucose log. If you find them dropping, which is what you want, you need to work with your doctor to begin to decrease your metformin levels, slowly and safely. If your doctor refuses to decrease your metformin, it's time to find a new doctorl

[@NerveDoctors]

Hi Tiger. I'm so sorry you don't usually get responses. Both Dr C & I are the only ones to answer these questions. We don't want a medical assistant giving you improper information. Sometimes are schedules get crazy and we have a difficult time with keeping up with the thousands of questions we get. You can always reach out to us at: [e-mail]. Now, let's get your question answered. 1) There is so, so much we've been doing successfully for over 20 years that it's a mountain of information. Our KZbin channel has only been up for 1.5 years (relatively short period) but rest assured, we are sharing all of our well-researched data with you 2) As great as Berberine is, it's not the first go-to for neuropathy or nerve damage, which is why it wasn't included in our Nuphoria formula. As an adjunct, it's fantastic. Now, here's a spoiler alert, we are working on a new product formula that will include....you guessed it...Berberine. We are still in research & development phase, so it will take about a year, maybe less before it's released. In the meantime, the brands we use with our patients are as follows: Pure Encapsulations Berberine Ultrasorb, Thorne Berberine and Mercola Berberine and micro PQQ. Now Mercola does have another berberine called Biothin Berberine with Chromium but I like the first one better simply because it’s a higher dose of berberine per capsule. These are all available on Amazon and You can’t go wrong with any of them.

[@NerveDoctors]

Hi Rose. I don't have enough information to answer this question so let me give you some basic guidelines. Make sure you've changed your diet to a healthy Ketogenic diet. This is one of the most effective lifestyle changes you can make to assist your pancreas in its recovery. As outlined in the research, you want to make sure you're taking 500 mg of berberine 3x/day. Also implementing some form of exercise 4-5 days per week for 20 minutes or more is also advised. The other thing you can do to improve your results is to take R-Alpha Lipoic Acid along with the berberine as research has shown that this too is effective with improving insulin resistance and lowering elevated blood glucose levels.

[@DanyalRehman-q3h]

Berberin has low absorption rate

[@NerveDoctors]

It sure does and I talk about this in the video. However, despite it's low absorption rate, numerous studies has proven it's still incredibly effective, which never ceases to blow my mind. But as you'll learn towards the end of the video, this has to do with the synergistic gut microbiota that improve it's intestinal absorption

My health has been in a steady decline with medications added by my doctor frequently. Honestly I’m looking to decrease my subscriptions by eating healthier & taking supplements instead.

I know that not all supplements are created equally. So, my question is where do I purchase an affordable & reliable Berberine supplement? I cannot do a Ketogenic diet because I have Chronic Kidney disease stage III. I’m currently trying to eat more veggies, fruit, low carbs and protein. I sure could use some advice! Thank you! 😊

[@NerveDoctors]

These are great and safe when taken together, however you should also add between 300-600 mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid. MAKE SURE YOU MONITOR YOUR GLUCOSE LEVELS!! This is imperative, especially if you're on any diabetic medications so that your blood sugar doesn't drop dangerously low

[@susycavaleiro1265]

Hi,Drs. Do you recommend UROLITHIN A for PNP ?

[@NerveDoctors]

Hi Susy. I don't have any experience with PNP nor have I done any research on this condition but here's what I do know about urolithin A. As you're probably aware it's main benefit is that it improves mitophagy (the removal of damaged mitochondria to make way for new healthy mitochondria) and it improves mitochondrial function and health. Most of the research that I've seen on Urolithin A involve the musculoskeletal system and not the immune system. Now, if your goal is to improve muscle function because of possibly spasticity, then yes, I would jump all over the Urolithin A. Since this is a genetic condition it's imperative for you to do a lot to support your immune system, especially since your T-cell and B-cell immunity are greatly effected. You should be on olive leaf extract, L-Lysine and quercetin along with EPA and DHA. Studies show that EPA and DHA can enhance adaptive immune function by promoting the growth and specialization of certain types of T cells and increasing the number and percentages of B cell populations in different tissues.

Berberine and a strict ketogenic/ carnivourish diet helped me reverse type 2 diabetes in 6 weeks. In Jan of 2023 I was getting blurry vision and was always thirsty and peeing alot. I knew these were the signs of high blood suger so I checked my levels with a finger prick test. My level was 9 and it didn't come down. It should have been in the 5's. I immediately fasted , ate a ketogenic diet and went on berberine , chromium, l carnitine and b vitamins. I also got a CGM to continuously monitor my glucose. It actually took only a few weeks to normalize my blood suger but it took about 6 weeks to have a normal suger/ insulin spike. I periodically tested myself with a bolus of carbs and my glucose spiked, then came right down and remained stable. I had restored my insulin sensitivity. Berberine will also upregulate glut4 transporters in the liver and restore insulin sensitivity and down regulate liver excessive gluconeogenesis. (That arises from insulin resistence)

[@smendoza7233]

How much Berberine did you take?

I was diagnosed with Poly Neuropathy and Fibromyalgia. The doctors have said it's caused by a nerve being compressed in between two disks in my lower back. They said that surgery wouldn't help I suffer with nerve pain in my legs and feet. I have high blood pressure and was told that the left side wall of my heart was damaged from high blood pressure. Would this be safe for me to take?

[@NerveDoctors]

Yes, not only would it be safe but it would be extremely beneficial for you. There are an abundance of studies on berberine and the benefits to the cardiovascular system. In this video, I talk about how it stops cardiac muscle scarring post infarct and from ischemia. Now, let's address your polyneuropathy. First of all a nerve root compression from two disc in your spine RARELY cause a polyneuropathy. Meaning you're not going to have equal symptoms on both legs/feet unless the compression to the nerve is on both sides. That can happen but is less likely. Most compressions are unilateral. You may want to get clarification on that. If you do have nerve root compression, you want to seek out a qualified chiropractor that has experience with Non-Surgical Spinal decompression. Next, your fibromyalgia. I've dealt with many, many cases of fibromyalgia and the root cause is always the same. It's from leaky gut and severe microbiota dysbiosis. It would be beneficial for you to seek out a functional medicine doctor, with experience in fibromyalgia to help you reverse this condition and yes, it's completely reversible. Here's a link to find someone in your area: www.ifm.org/find-a-practitioner/

It’s my understanding that as you lower your blood sugar your insulin production also lowers. Insulin is a fat storing hormone. Most DR don’t test for fasting insulin which tells you how hard your pancreas is working to lower blood sugar by producing more insulin. Dr Ben Bickman is a research professor at BYU and has many lectures/interviews to explain better. I hope it helps.

Is it better to take Berberine before meal or after?

[@Indieauguste]

Have it before a meal rather than after.

LDL is not bad. You need it for your brain. The size of ldl is what matters which is not tested for. Statins only go after the large healthy ldl. Eat whole non processed food, no grains.

[@NerveDoctors]

Leona you are 100% correct. I did not go into the differences in LDL's in this video because it was already a long video. The bad LDL is actually sdLDL. This is the most harmful LDL for your arteries. Unfortunately the average doctor only looks at LDL which doesn't give an accurate picture.

[@andrewrivera4029]

@@NerveDoctorsdoc isn’t it true that bad LDL is only bad if you have atherosclerosis? If your endothelial layer is healthy does it really matter?

i noticed with berberine pills( which i chew, as I cant swallow this big pills) i get serious gut pain. i wonderif it is the buling agents like mangesium streate etc, an dnot the berberine itself?. also, would you take it first thing in the mornign for the dawn phenomenon? also, it is SUPER bitter and even if i get used to it, it changed my taste buttons for good

[@Atlantakatt]

Thank you so much for all the information. I have been truly blessed by this info. I have both types of the Berb, can both types be taken together or do you recommend only one. Thank you again

Planet Ayurveda's total heart support and guggulipid capsules are helpful in this case.

Because increases insulin sensitivity, ups the AMPK a 1 and AMPK a 2, which increases basal metabolism, so converts white adipose to brown fat and basically makes people lose weight and works against diabetes. Also increasing nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase and makes them autoregulatory which then auto-stimulates AMPK a 1/2 again. Yet insulin sensitivity/potassium supplementation /potassium nitrate (or nitro glycerine🎉) supplementation can all induce this effect with insulin sensitivity contributing upto 44% to this effect... I just ordered potassium nitrate (is good stuff) and vanadium sulfate and vanadium oxide for this reason and others....😂🎉

I don't buy in to all these web based snake oil commercial adds fix all. Your sit is the first one that is come off as being the real deal, Thank you so much for being honest and truthful. Knowing what your talking about, I did purchase a number of things based on an other Video, B-1 and so on. I see based on your knowledge things are very encouraging. The Lord God Bless you and yours.

Thanks so much for sharing. We always promise to be completely objective because that's what everyone needs. Unfortunately, most of the medical profession is caught up in egos which causes once good doctors, to lose sight of what's in the best interest of their patients. We're doing our best to change that. Blessings.

I got the B1 benfotiamine or something like that dunno and r lipoic acid and will get more based on these videos I put r alpha lipoic acid on my Weeiner in bath with DMSO (reverse osmosis resin in sock over bath tap - to reverse osmosis my bath water) And the Weeiner started working better for days on end (like way better) from doing just once...😂😂😂 So incredible.

Dear Dr ! I used to take beberin for treatment insulin resistance but just one time my skin had rash and dry. How I can take it without side effects ? Please help !

[@NerveDoctors]

Hi there. Well the first thing you would want to identify is if you're absolutely sure it was the berberine that caused the skin rash. Sometimes it could be something else you're eating, drinking or applying to your skin without you realizing it. If you're absolutely positive it was the berberine, then the next thing you want to do is look at the ingredients on the label, including where it says 'Other Ingredients' right below the supplement facts panel. Was there anything else in there besides berberine. Sometimes some of the fillers that companies use might cause a reaction. If that's the case and it's a filler, it will be as simple as getting a different brand. The brands that we have the most experience with using for ourselves and are patients are: Pure Encapsulations Berberine Ultrasorb, Thorne Berberine and Mercola Berberine and micro PQQ. Now Mercola does have another berberine called Biothin Berberine with Chromium but I like the first one better simply because it’s a higher dose of berberine per capsule. These are all available on Amazon and You can’t go wrong with any of them. Now, worst case scenario is it actually was the berberine that you had a reaction to, then you won't be able to use berberine but don't despair because you can get the same great results by taking 600 mg of Benfotiamine and 600 mg of R-ALA.

[@NerveDoctors]

We never report on anything that isn't backed by numerous clinical studies published in well-respected scientific journals.

[@baileystruss7319]

Thank you. You didn't mention whether the phytosome version is favorable?

[@NerveDoctors]

Ugh! We know. We only caught that after filming. So sorry about that. Yes, the phytosome version is equally effective and Both Dr M & I have used that version by Thorne and we were happy with the results.

When is the best time to take berberine and how?

[@NerveDoctors]

Great question. Berberine can be taken at any time of day. However, if your specific health goal is to stabilize or lower blood sugar levels throughout the day, you can take 1000 mg in the morning and the remaining 500 at dinner time.

[@irenesmolonogov3034]

​@@NerveDoctorsthanku. Do I take berberine with food?

[@Kim-ek7xy]

I am very excited to try Berberine again. I did several years ago but did't stick with it more than a month. It was expensive, but now I see it is insanely cheap insurance to prevent the horrible consequences of diabetes and neurological diseases. This was a fantastic video, thank you for sharing! Question: Can Berberine help autonomic neuropathy?
