Berberine Helps Support Healthy Blood Sugar, A1C and Cholesterol Levels, 90 capsules (30-day supply)

I was looking for something to help with my diabetes and read about Berberine in a magazine. After researching it online (WebMD, NCBI, and reading user reviews on Amazon), I decided to give it a try. It seemed an all-natural way that might lower my numbers. With diet and exercise I had been in the high 100-120 range, but then I was in the 120s consistently no matter what I did. I was worried my a1c would be above 6.5 at my next doctor visit. I knew if it was, my doctor would want to put me on Metformin and I just don't want to go that route if at all possible. But I was super skeptical about the berberine because I've tried just about everything else natural to lower my numbers and nothing worked. To my surprise, the very first morning after taking the berberine my numbers were in the 90s. Say what? I hadn't seen that in a couple years. Before I got too hopeful though, I reigned in my excitement. I wanted to see what would happen over time. My numbers stayed in the 90s, sometimes even in the 80s. A "high" day was in the 100s (like 107). I used to try and keep my numbers at 110 or under. With the berberine it was possible to shoot for 100 or under. I have now been on it for 3 months. I had to do my 6 month blood work and was curious if this affected my a1C. I had been at 6.5 the previous visit. It dropped to 6.3. In the last month though I wasn't as fastidious about taking it 3x/day. I'm curious if I go back to that if my a1C will drop even more. We'll find out next visit six months from now... I was delighted to see my cholesterol had also improved. From total chol of 200, triglycerides of 100 and LDL of 119 last year to total chol of 189, triglycerides of 87 and LDL of 112 this year. HDL remained consistent both years at 60. I believe the Berberine helped with my cholesterol numbers improving too. Another thing I want to note is tummy issues. When I first started taking the berberine I was also taking reservatol and milk thistle. Not sure what was upsetting my stomach so bad, but after meals it was imperative I be near a bathroom. Which was very inconvenient. I read about the side effects for the other 2 and decided to eliminate them when I learned both can up occurrences of breast cancer, and milk thistle can have a laxative effect. Tummy problems solved. Not sure if it was one of them causing it, a combo of all 3 or what, but that was rough. But on the berberine alone? No problems like that. I love seeing my morning fasting numbers so low though. I feel this stuff is wonderful and am very glad there's a company who provides it. As for the quality...My first couple of bottles were bright yellow capsules. This last bottle was darker yellow (almost a stone ground mustard color) and had a couple broken/smashed capsules. That was a little disconcerting. And my numbers have been back in the 110s and 120s since taking this newest bottle. (But I also haven't been taking 3x/day. Some days I'm lucky just to take it once.) So I'm not sure if this one missed quality control or what, but when I run out I'll order more. Until I feel this isn't working anymore or I have side effects, I'll keep this in my health repertoire.

The labelling on the bottle was mis leading
