Nature’s Healing Gold – Berberine

I’m alway telling anyone who will listen that nurturing your digestive system and “cleaning your gut” is one of the most important things you can do for weightloss, energy, mood, and over-all health. We are all eating way too much crap and experiencing “bad” bacterial overgrowth and now suffering the consequences with issues like metabolic issues, auto-immune disorders, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

While nothing can take the place of a healthy diet, adding certain supplements can jump-start your gut back to health. One of my favorites is Berberine which has been used for years in traditional Ayurveda and Chinese medicine to treat intestinal problems, bacterial infections,  inflammation and much more. Berberine is present in many plants, including the European barberry, goldenseal, goldthread, Oregon grape, phellodendron, and tree tumeric and it is found in roots, rhizomes, stems, and the bark.

While Berberine isn’t new to the natural health world. recent studies have shown that Berberine can help support many functions and health concerns with our bodies. Here are 4 notable benefits:

Natural Antimicrobial – Berberine has significant antimicrobial activity against bacteria and viruses. It inhibits bad bacteria from attaching to human cells so it helps protect against many bacterial infections, particularly in the throat, intestines, and urinary tract. Its antimicrobial properties in the digestive track make it a great cleansing supplement.

Balances Sugar Levels & Type 2 Diabetes – A clinical trial found that “Berberine works just as well as the top-selling drug for type 2 diabetes, metformin (Glucophage).” The study conducted on individuals with Type 2 diabetes found that Berberine significantly lowered blood sugar and hemoglobin levels. A natural anti-diabetic supplement that is just as, if not more effective as an anti-diabetic pharmaceutical is worth trying.

Lowers Cholesterol Levels- Berberine has been shown to lower LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Besides lowering cholesterol, studies have found that Berberine lowered blood pressure and increased weight/fat loss.

Supports Heart Health-  A study reported in the Cardiovascular Drug Review also “indicated the cardiovascular effects of Berberine may make it useful in the treatment of arrhythmias and/or heart failure.” Besides heart failure, Berberine can certainly reduce the risk of heart disease, especially since it can reduce cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels—all of which are risk factors for heart disease.

After reading all of this, how can Berberine not be an option for you? Order the supplement here. Remember, no supplement can make up for your nutritional intake and dietary choices – you must be prepared to make lifestyle choices to support good health first and foremost!

Important Note:

There is a potential for interaction between berberine and many prescription medications, be sure to consult your pharmacist or doctor to prevent drug interactions. Berberine should not be used by children, women or are pregnant or breastfeeding.
