BERBERINE pt2: Glucose, Diabetes, Blood Pressure - FORD BREWER MD MPH

Episode Summary

This is part 2 in a series on Berberine. The first part included a discussion of potential mechanisms, biomarkers, & history. This one looks at a meta-analysis. Berberine appears to be a safe adjunct to metformin, lifestyle, AND cholesterol drugs. The study seemed to be a reasonably rigorous meta-analysis. The major problems were inadequate numbers for all the different impacts & study questions and the issue with the paywall.
