Berberine ?

[HowMuchIsThatDoggyInTheWindow123]

I've recently seen lots on berberine helping with weight loss / cravings / bloating.

Has anyone tried it before spending £20+ on some.

I have approx 20lbs to loose. I have a terrible snacking habit. Which is 99% sweet related. Chocolate bar , biscuits and sweets.
Also been leaning more towards crisps and bread which I've never in the past really eaten.
I've actually meal prepped and planned for the next 4 days so hoping that will help too rather than snack whilst deciding what to cook?

Yes it did nothing for me, in liquid or capsule form, I gained weight on it,

Thank you how long did you try it for. I was thinking to try it for a month? Now wondering whether to bother

I've bit the bullet and ordered some from Boots. Here's to trying anything to help

I’ve been taking it since coming off mounjaro at the start of the year. It has been touted as natures mounjaro but I can assure you it is not. I have been able to stick to my diet and lost weight which was always going to a challenge after 18 months on MJ but I couldn’t tell you if that is the berberine or just plain willpower. I’m certainly bloody ravenous all the time and definitely have cravings.

It really helped me, I take New Nordic. They changed their formulation recently, I think it was better before, but I still find it effective.

I found it was effective after I took the capsule, but when it wore off by the evening I was starving and ate loads. this happened a couple of days on the trot and i gave up on them.

I am trying functional mushrooms and I am definitely finding that I am eating less, craving less sugar, and have more energy so I am not getting carb cravings and energy slumps

What are functioning mushrooms@thenewaveragebear1983

Which NN product please?

Have also added a photo.

It is pricey but so worth it if it works, so I think it is well worth trying. I used to get such hard crashes, I would not feel hungry for ages and then suddenly feel ravenous and in need of allll the sugar - this corrected that. And now it reduces snacking noise.

I do take up to 3 berberine tablets a day.

I have heard good things also about functioning mushrooms and sugar.

@MerseyChick I have bought the ankway ones which are all over Facebook. The dose says take 2 a day but I started on half a day and am now in one a day, they are just tiny chewy sweet. They definitely make a difference. I have been stuck in a plateau for months and months, losing no weight and self sabotaging on carby rubbish, well the last 2 weeks I have stuck to my calorie goal every day and have lost 7lbs, it may not sound much but to me it’s my first loss since November. I highly recommend them. I have also read on here that some people have been stung by an auto subscribe but I declined that in the first purchase, just heads up :-)
