Note at 1:26 when referring to Berberine's effect on weight, 'significantly' in the slide is referring to statistical significance. The magnitude of effect is small (less than 1kg of weight loss).

I’m a 63-year-old female both my parents died of heart disease. Berberine has lowered both my LDL and triglycerides and I’ve recently lost 15 pounds, I’ve carried for 20 years.

Personally, I have had far more positive results using Berberine in just a couple weeks than I did for with months of battling dangerously high glucose levels on Metformin. I understand that you have a vested interest in the pharmaceutical industry, as do many doctors, but ultimately, I'm going to listen to my body, especially with the healthcare industry in general gatekeeps access to care and medications away from so many of us in the US. Even being above poverty level is not a guarantee you can afford healthcare here.

Berberine works for me, so I think this guy loves his big pharma!

[kenfleenor]

It seems this guy is a pure pharma guy.

[b.k.]

I am not a physician, but I am a diabetic who seeks to use natural remedies instead pharmaceuticals whenever possible or in addition to. I can definitively say that berberine along with dietary and lifestyle changes has most definitely helped me lower my a1c and glucose over the past year. I also use bioperine to enhance the bioavailability of berberine. I cannot speak for others as all of our bodies react differently to what we put inside of it. The fact is my a1c went from 11 down to 5 in less than a year and I have the medical records to prove it. Another fact metformin in many causes side effects that berberine does NOT.

Some studies have shown that berberine's main impact is in how it positively impacts gut bacteria and that leads to many downstream benefits. In any case, there is ample evidence that berberine is very helpful to a lot of people. I don't like how this channel is becoming increasingly negative and clickbaity.

I am on a keto diet and berberine supplementation has definitely helped me lose weight and cut sugar cravings. I can feel that my sugar cravings are higher when I am not on it.

[sharijacobsen]

Metformin has terrible side effects. Berberine has improved my husband's A1c dramatically. He's now off all meds.

[bobbygandy]

results from lab test 8/2022: overall cholesterol- 252 HDL- 75 LDL -158 Trigl - 85. These numbers have been hard to improve last 10 years. I Started 1000mg berberine per day 3.5 mths ago and latest lab results: Overall cholesterol - 213 HDL - 90 LDL - 113 Trigl. -53 - I can't prove berberine is the common denominator but these improvements are dramatic and I really haven't changed diet much this year.

[slimbrady]

Ironic how he forgot to mention that statins cause diabetes while promoting them in a video about berberine

[malibujack]

Dr. Stanfield, I can only speak for myself and say that berberine works extremely well on me. I've tried several times on and off berberine. When on berberine, my weight drops from about 196 down to about 189. If I go off berberine it goes back up. I'm 6'3" and in pretty good shape. I do take a pretty large supplement stack for anti-aging so maybe there is something synergistic going on. I do regular blood profile panels and my numbers are all as expected including my glucose which is around 92 when fasting. As for me, I will be staying on berberine.

[lilascharmante]

Damn, people are going hard for berberine in the comments. I love seeing how many people it has helped!

[kakenetit]

Berberine has been VERY effective at lowering my blood pressure without the horrible side effects of BP meds. Usually don't take issue with your advice, but I have to, a bit on this one.

[geoffreylevens]

I was in ketosis for nearly 18 months. When most people reintroduce carbs it takes them a few days or a week for their body to ramp insulin production back up. It has taken me 4 months and still working on it. Berberine (500mg before meals) knockes 25-30 points off my postprandial high blood glucose and seems to be speeding up my ability to tolerate increasing amounts of carbs without getting damagingly high blood sugar spikes.

[siasina]

I completely disagree with you on the inflammation aspect. I have an autoimmune disease, alopecia Areata and basically reversed and put it into remission with berberine. Berberine is a JAK3 inhibitor and is very powerful at downregulating inflammatory cytokines. Berberine has supposed poor bioavailability because it’s sort of used as a prebiotic for the gut microbiome and it reshapes the gut microbiome to give its health benefits. For example, it increases an important bacteria Akkermansia which grazes on mucin, which then tells the host to produce more mucin to protect the gut. The fact that it gives benefit via the gut microbiome means that its effect last much longer than JAK drugs and it does it in a more profound way.

With regards to blood sugar, it certainly does lower it. I’ve tested this with a CGM. You can do your own experiment and provide the data.

Berberine also doesn’t have the negative side effects that metformin has, especially in regards to exercise.

[abunchofnothing]

I started taking berberine and my blood auger leveled out and lost about 2in in waist line A friend was on metformin and blood sugar would go from 80 to 250 started berberine and stays level at 120. So whatever.

[Scottlp]

People become less insulin sensitive as they get older. I’d rather take berberine than metformin.

How much did Novo Nordisk (maker of Ozempic) pay you to make this video?

[l.s.s.]

I am a type-2 diabetic and I have been taking Berberine for 2 years now and my A!C is down to 5.5. Before taking Berberine, I was taking Metformin and it gave me severe cramps in my legs. I will always try natural remedies first.
