Berberine is one of my favorite supplements out there and has been for several years. The reason is simple: berberine helps treat the biggest and most important conditions that people face including weight gain, insulin resistance, and gut dysfunction. It's not only healthy for people who are already healthy, but it's also amazing for people who want to stay healthy!

You can use it to assist with weight loss, balance your blood sugar, build more muscle mass, or just optimize your physique.

Let's talk about the benefits of berberine and why you can make a strong case to use it.

Many of the benefits we are going to be discussing today stem from Berberine's ability to increase something called AMPK or AMP kinase. This is the same enzyme that is increased when you exercise. So when you think about the benefits, think about berberine as a tiny bottle of exercise. It doesn't replace exercise but it's helpful to wrap your head around how it's working.

Activating AMPK increases fat burning potential, mitochondrial proliferation in muscle tissue, insulin sensitivity, and much more.

With this in mind, let's talk about the benefits:

1. Berberine can help improve insulin resistance and low blood sugar. It has been shown to be as powerful as some medications at lowering blood sugar (metformin).

2. Berberine can help you lose weight. Berberine enhances the effectiveness of diet and exercise.

3. Berberine can help improve your gut health. Berberine increases butyrate production and reduces local inflammation in the gut.

4. Berberine can help lower cholesterol. Some studies show that berberine can reduce cholesterol more effectively than statins.

5. Berberine helps treat metabolic disorders like non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, type II diabetes, PCOS, high blood pressure, obesity, and elevated triglycerides.

6. Berberine can help your brain stay healthy.

For everyday general health, use around 500 to 1,000 mg each day.

For metabolic conditions use 1,000 to 2,000 mg each day
