Our product Berberine + contains Berberine which is an herb that has been found to have a significant effect on insulin resistance. As a result, it provides a major benefit for people with type II diabetes, allowing for improved control of blood sugars. Another benefit along these same lines is that studies have shown that it has an ability to help with weight loss and lower cholesterol levels.
However, the main benefit of berberine is the effect that it has on metabolism in the brain. The brain uses more sugar than any other area of the body. Needless to say, insulin provides an important role in this scenario. Unfortunately, there are a number of people who develop insulin resistance in the brain, which results in inadequate fuel getting inside the brain cells. The name for this situation is type III diabetes, and the importance of realizing the existence of this condition is that it is a major contributor to the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
It is a fact that every neurodegenerative disease of the brain can be associated with insulin resistance. With regard to Alzheimer’s, it is important to realize that it is often a disease of prevention. People with a history of Alzheimer’s in the family may be at increased risk. People with diabetes, as well as those with Syndrome X which is a precursor to the development of diabetes, should think about taking preventive steps to avoid Alzheimer’s from occurring.
The three primary supplements that help to prevent Alzheimer’s are: 1) berberine 2) vitamin D3 with vitamin K2 and 3) curcumin. In addition, steps that can be utilized to eliminate insulin resistance in the brain (type III diabetes) include: 1) berberine 2) coconut oil, and 3) metformin.
Another factor to consider is that insulin resistance in the brain can cause the body to release excess levels of adrenaline in an attempt to raise sugar levels in the brain. Those people who note that symptoms of increased adrenaline levels occur after using progesterone may have an underlying issue of insulin resistance in the brain. In this case, it might suggest that berberine and coconut oil be added to their wellness regimen.
