Has anyone found berberine effective with reducing appetite and cravings when coming off WLIs?

I’m currently titrating down after losing 3 stone and am on 2.5mg of Mounjaro. I’m logging calories on MFP but can feel the low blood sugar hunger returning and it’s hard to keep it at bay. I’ve gained a couple of pounds which has annoyed me! I’m a runner so am hoping it’s muscle but am terrified of regaining the weight I’ve lost.

I’ve just read about Berberine being effective at keeping blood sugar levels low and therefore reducing hunger. Has anyone tried using it? Does it work?

I did it in both liquid and capsule form for several months before mounjaro, made absolutely no difference in fact I gained on it,

I haven’t been on WLI but I have pcos and Berberine is recommended to help with weight loss. I’ve been taking capsules for ages and not noticed any benefit from it.

@PurplePotatoes@Daisywhatsyouranswer thank you for your replies. Can I ask what brand and strength you’ve been taking please?

Different brands, mainly applied nutrients and bettervits, you need optimally 650mg a day,I have done up to 1000mg, it’s not like weight loss injections op where you’re moving up doses or anything. It’s not prescription so that tells you something.

as said, I’d not waste my money again.

@PurplePotatoesah ok. Don’t think I’ll be trying it then. Feel I’m going to be a WLI lifer!
