The Herb That Supports Blood Sugar, Cholesterol, and the Gut (All at Once)
all while maintaining muscle....
Hey everyone,
This herb is having a moment (actually a decade) with an impressive number of studies proving a wide range of health benefits.
The herb I’m talking about is Berberine.
If you want to know which berberine products is use, make a post in Skool and I’ll reply.
And with the holidays officially here — the season of sugar spikes, stress, late nights, and other stressors — this is the perfect time to understand why so many people would want to have this as part of their daily routine.

Why Berberine Is One of the Most Used Plant Compounds on the Planet
Berberine isn’t a trend. It’s one of the oldest herbal tools humans have used — showing up in Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Middle Eastern texts for thousands of years.
But it’s the modern research that pushed it into the spotlight. Over the last 10–15 years, berberine has become one of the most studied botanical compounds because of one big theme:
It supports the same systems that take the hardest hit in modern life — especially during the holidays.
Here’s what makes people reach for it:
⸻
It supports healthy blood sugar — uniquely well.
Randomized trials show berberine can help:
• Improve insulin sensitivity
• Steady glucose after meals
• Reduce those big “holiday sugar spikes”
With nearly 30% of the US being diabetic or pre-diabetic, it should be more known than it is.

2. It helps support cholesterol and triglycerides.
Some studies show berberine supporting LDL and triglyceride improvements on par with certain medications (although not profitable to drug companies so it will never be accepted by mainstream)
In a world where cardiovascular disease like 50/50 to take you out, it seems wise to add this in.
⸻
3. It supports gut health and the microbiome.
Berberine naturally helps suppress bad bacteria and support the gut barrier.
We all need support in this department even if you have no gut symptoms.
⸻
4. It helps calm inflammation.
Late nights, sugar, stress, alcohol, travel — welcome to December.
Berberine has documented anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which is part of why people feel more stable on it.
⸻
5. It supports metabolic flexibility.
This is the secret ingredient in berberine’s global rise.
It isn’t just working on blood sugar.
It isn’t just working on lipids.
It isn’t just working in the gut.
It supports multiple systems at once — the exact ones that fall out of rhythm during the holidays.
⸻
Why This Matters Right Now
December is when most people quietly lose momentum — and then spend all of January trying to climb out of the hole. Why?
You don’t need to be perfect.
You don’t need to avoid every cookie or glass of wine.
You just need to stay supported.
For many people, berberine is one of the tools that helps keep them feeling steadier, less inflamed, and less prone to the big metabolic swings.
It’s not the right fit for everyone — especially if you’re on certain medications — but if you want to know whether it makes sense for your specific case, reply to this email and I’ll walk you through it. And if you want to know the exact brand I trust, just reply and I’ll send you the link.
Let’s stay on track for thew last month of the year. If you are an in office patient, make sure you are scheduled out for 2026 or you may be left out in the cold.
In Health,
Dr. G

PPS- Please do not go out any buy cheap berberine that is not quality and purity tested. Berberine is hard to absorb and certain companies do a good job to make it more absorbable.
