Is berberine the herbal equivalent of Ozempic for weight loss?
People on social media are calling it “nature’s Ozempic” and are getting millions of views saying to helps with weight loss.
Berberine is a bright yellow color and is extracted from the stem, roots, and bark of various plants. It has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine across Asia and the Middle East. Traditionally it was used to treats stings and bites, heal wounds, and treat medical disorders.
Supplements are not regulated by the FDA in the United States. It’s available online from a range of manufacturers. The issue is the quality and content of these supplements can vary drastically. One study of 15 berberine products found only six containing at least 90% berberine.
A few smaller studies suggest it can decrease blood glucose and cholesterol and improve insulin resistance. However, links to weight loss are limited and scarce at this point. The weight loss effects may be the result of exercise and dieting rather than the supplement.
Anecdotal accounts claim it helps to take the thoughts off eating.
