Berberine: The powerful plant compound that controls blood sugar...

And delivers many more exciting health benefits!

So you have finally decided to take charge of your health, and in your search for safe, legal, and effective ways to restore your vital, life-giving hormones to a more youthful level you have arrived at our web page. Congratulations! You are exactly where you need to be.

We are proud to offer several hormone replacement options: Human Growth Hormone (HGH) Replacement Therapy, Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT), and Sermorelin Therapy. We will construct a regimen of hormone therapy that is specifically designed for you and only you.

You are unique, and we will treat you as such. Our programs also include recommendations for stress reduction, exercise, nutrition, and the latest research from the world of live-extended, health-promoting nutritional supplements.

We recognize that staying abreast of the ever-changing world of supplementation is a Sisyphean task. For a brief reminder from Greek mythology, as punishment for his wicked behavior the Greek king Sisyphus was condemned to push a gigantic boulder up a steep hill over and over again only to have it slip and roll back down to the bottom of the hill.

This resulted in a maddening, never-ending cycle of frustration for the unfortunate king.

This is the same problem we face today in all aspects of our lives, and that includes health. We are constantly bombarded with conflicting recommendations from the so-called “experts” who are often anything but experts.

When it comes to how to workout, what to eat, how to control our weight, get a good night’s sleep, and what supplements to take (if any) the cacophony of contradictory, “my-way-or-the-highway” advice all-too-often leaves us right back at the bottom of the hill, frustrated and feeling hopeless similar to King Sisyphus.

It is understandable why so many folks wave the white flag of surrender due to mental exhaustion and give up their attempts to get on and stay on the path of good health and return to their old patterns of a health-robbing, self-destructive lifestyle.

We get it. We understand. And we guarantee that it won’t happen here! Our recommendations are based on solid, scientifically-based, up-to-date research, especially concerning supplements…

Like Berberine

Sugar. It’s addictive. It’s alluring. It’s delicious. But it is also insidiously devastating to your continued good health, well-being and longevity.

The broad range of diseases that are linked to sugar are well-known:

Type 2 diabetes
Obesity
Heart diseases
High blood pressure
Dental problems
Cancer
Liver issues
Skin inflammation
Joint aches
Mood swings
Energy crash
Brain fog

Knowing this, it seems obvious that health-conscious people would make consuming less sugar an absolute must. Just stop adding it to your food and the problem is solved, right?

Wrong! Sugar is hidden almost everywhere!

While consciously deciding not to add sugar to your food is the first step, it is almost impossible to cut it out completely. Why?

The “hidden sugar effect.”

Hidden sugar is sugar that sneaks into your food and drinks under the guise of several different names: glucose syrup, dextrose, modified starch, corn syrup, fructose syrup, agave nectar, beet sugar, cane juice, caramel, galactose (beware of anything with “ose” at the end of the word), sucrose – the list goes on and on.

These artificial, Frankenstein-like monstrosities creep stealthily into your body like a silent midnight burglar through a broad range of food and drinks:

Ketchup
Cereal
Spaghetti sauce
Canned tomato soup
Granola
Salad dressing
Barbecue sauce
Many processed foods
Bread, especially white bread
Vitamin water
Instant oatmeal
Dried fruit
Energy drinks
Applesauce
Sports drinks
Jelly and Jam
And more...much much more

So this is the environment we are up against. We can’t expect the huge food conglomerates (“Big Agra”) to make dramatic changes since sugar adds flavor and boosts the bottom line of the corporations.

Knowing this, we are on our own. And we are also human and with a wide array of sugar ambushes waiting for us we can’t possibly avoid consuming any sugar, and a little goes a long way in sabotaging our health, fitness, and longevity goals.

And this is where Berberine comes into the equation

Berberine is a bio-active herbal substance found in many different plants. Berberine has a long history of use going back more than 3,000 years in both Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, and its benefits have finally spread to the U.S.

The key to Berberine’s effectiveness is the herb’s ability to control the molecules in our cells that regulate blood sugar. Berberine boosts the uptake of glucose into the cells which improves insulin sensitivity and lowers glucose production in the liver.

Berberine also delivers several more impressive benefits. Let’s take a look at a few of them:

Lowers blood sugar. According to the National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2020, over 34.2 Americans – just over 1 in 10 – suffer from diabetes. Worse, an astonishing 88 million American adults – approximately 1 in 3 – have prediabetes. With this crippling disease on a seemingly inexorable march of death and destruction, we are in an “all-hands-on-deck” search for the tools to halt this trend. Berberine fits the bill perfectly.
Lower cholesterol. Recent studies have shown that regular use of Berberine can reduce triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins (i.e. the “bad cholesterol”). These are two benefits that most of the pharmaceuticals prescribed for diabetes cannot do.
Lower the risk of heart disease. Most of the systems in our bodies are interconnected and strengthening one area spills over into other areas. Berberine’s ability to lower blood sugar, total cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, and weight loss strengthen and protect the heart by increasing the heart’s efficiency. Heart disease is the most common cause of death worldwide, so you owe it to yourself to do all you can to avoid becoming another cardiovascular statistic.
Help with weight loss. In a recent 12-week study with obese people, 500 mg of Berberine taken 3 times daily resulted in an average of 5 pounds of weight loss. The researchers concluded that “...berberine has potential clinical application in reducing visceral fat and controlling obesity.” The researchers also stated that berberine may reduce the size of fat cells and lower their numbers as well – a double-bonus!
Improve digestion. Berberine contains both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, and therefore shows promise in easing a broad range of digestive disorders.
Reduce inflammation. Inflammation has been shown to be the underlying cause or at least a contributing factor in virtually all disease and other debilitating health issues and concerns. Berberine helps to dampen the fires of inflammation.
Offers a natural alternative to powerful prescription drugs. Prescription drugs have worked countless life-saving miracles and continue to do so. The drugs prescribed for blood sugar control are effective but often come with side effects. If blood sugar can be held in check with a herb that is easier on the system it may make the use of pharmaceuticals unnecessary. However, this is something that needs to be discussed with a medical professional who is aware of your current health condition.
Memory boost, better mood, and improved cognitive function. High blood sugar levels, diabetes, and insulin resistance offer result in brain fog and memory impairment. Research has found a link between diabetes and the onset of dementia. Berberine has been shown to protect acetylcholine, a crucial brain chemical that is needed for focus, memory, and cognition.
And more benefits...much, much more!

Should you consider taking Berberine?

It depends. Although berberine is generally considered safe, there are potential side effects from the substance. People with low blood pressure need to be careful since berberine has the potential to lower blood pressure and this may be a case of too much of a good thing if your blood pressure is chronically low.

As with any new addition to your nutritional intake, there is the possibility of an upset stomach. Pregnant and nursing women should avoid berberine.

If you are currently taking prescriptions for diabetes or insulin you must discuss berberine use with your physician!

Think about this. Many people burdened with diabetes have succeeded in replacing their prescriptions with berberine or at least lowering the amount of the drugs needed. But this is not something to attempt on your own. Your blood sugar must be monitored closely and continually and your doctor needs to be aware of the addition of berberine for regular consultations.
