aSquared Nutrition Pure Berberine 1000mg Supplement - 180 Veggie Capsules, Natural Berberine Hydrochloride HCL Plus, Max Strength 1000 mg (2X 500mg), Potent Berberine Vegan Extract

So, i waited until i completed 80 percent of my bottle before my review, and now that i have im definitely ordering anther one. I'm a 27yr old woman diagnosed as a diabetic type 2 as of 2015 and have PCOS. I'm so amazed by this product that i don't know where to begin. First, let me start with the things i struggled with; the most obvious high blood sugar (post meal usually >200, fasting >150), overweight (214 when starting berberine), nicaraguan acanthosis (darkening of the skin in areas like neck/creases- I'm african american btw so it gets really dark). So im sooo happy to state that my results have been amazing. my fasting blood sugar has been 89-100, sometimes 115-120 if ive eating something i had no business eating at night or throught the day), post meal is usually around 120-130, my weight is down to 206, and the major issue for me was the ancanthosis since that is one of the major signs your body isn't using insulin properly, and my neck has lightened considerable (which is also a boost of confidence). i didnt test my cholesterol levels but from my research apparently that is also positively affected as well. I feel energetic and less lethargic and dazed ESPECIALLY after a meal. i literally had fast food one day from lunch and i felt light, not heavy or hazey as a result of your blood sugar shooting too high really fast. Last, i have or should i say had combination IBS, and i cant remember the last time i had bathroom issues. i'm regular as long as my diet isn't crazy. i don't know if berberine is to blame for that but im confident that it played a part. I'm so happy i decided to go this route as ive worked in pharmacy as a tech for years and i see the meds diabetics walk away with everyday and i refused to start the journey..i tried metformin and i told myself "this cant be life". I am now combining exercise and a healthier diet with this regimen and i'm so excited for whats to come.

I am just finishing up my first bottle and had blood work done this week. This is the first time the dial has moved down on my levels, and I am very excited! My total cholesterol was 332 and is down to 306, LDL down from 238 to 218. My HDL levels dropped too, I wish that would have stayed the same. But I will take it. When I was referred to take Berberiene I was told that it would take about 3 months to see results. I haven't lost any weight yet but haven't gained any. I am also working on Adrenal Fatigue and absorption issues with MTHFR so this may be part of what is working. I just ordered my second bottle so stay tuned...

I never write reviews, but I had to chime in on the high opinion I have of this product as a part of a group of supplements I take. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 9 mos ago with a blood sugar reading of 425 and an A1c of 14! My doctor actually told me she had never seen a higher A1c reading. After crying and feeling sorry for myself I started doing some research. I cut out most carbs, ALL sweetened sodas/teas/juices (even "diet), and switched to monkfruit sweetener only in hot beverages. I also took metformin along with two of these pills and two different types of cinnamon. Just went to the endocrinologist and my blood sugar is 104 and an A1c of 6. I also lost over 70lbs pretty effortlessly while doing this. Of course it's not only the supplements, but I know for sure they helped A LOT. If your doctor thinks you can take them, DO IT. Don't hesitate and let type 2 diabetes take hold and change your cells permanently.

I can't say for sure if the product delivered on it's promise and that may because I probably didn't use it as I was supposed to. However the shipping, packaging and prices were good. Would buy from seller again..

I already know the value of Berberine with type 2 diabetes, since, because of it, I have been taken completely off of two kinds of insuline and now have normal blood sugar. I decided to try this brand as it seems to be a better value than a brand I used before. All I can say at the moment is that it arrived on time and all seems to be in order. I will update my review after I have had the opportunity to use the whole bottle. I would like to also say, if anyone is considering using Berberine to control their blood sugars, they should be very conscientious about testing their blood sugars and should drink plenty of water. Also, it isn't a magic pill. It won't work if you don't eat properly. Yes, you blood sugars will be lower, but not optimum. All in all I highly recommend it as part of a common sense part of an overall good eating program and exercise.

After reading lab test for the product, turns out the amount of berberine is no where near what the label claims.Should of done my research before purchase, shame on me never again!

I love my Berberine supplements. I was taking a lower Mg different brand multiple times a day. But I prefer just taking it once a day so I know it’s with a meal. A homeopathic doctor recommended I take Berberine to keep yeast and fungal infections at bay. I have not had any infections when I’m taking it, but I have stopped for months at a time and it’s almost guaranteed I’ll get a yeast infection in that time. Berberine has also helped my mother stay off of cholesterol lowering medication. She went in for her tests and they told her she would have to go on it. She asked for some time to re-test before going on medication. In only a month after taking Berberine her bad cholesterol numbers were low enough she did not need the medication.

I bought this product several times and used it regularly, but the last bottle arrived with some capsules breached and contents spilled inside the bottle. Not sure why.
