Is there any study that confirms that berberine actually lowers blood glucose levels?Or is it cope?

Would it afect igf1? I have read something like that.Yin J, et al., Efficacy of berberine in patients with type 2 diabetes (2008, pilot RCT, PMC full text)
Berberine (0.5 g three times daily ≈ 1.5 g/day) significantly lowered fasting glucose, postprandial glucose, HbA1c and improved HOMA-IR over 3 months vs baseline; GI side effects were the most common adverse events.
Zhang Y, et al., Berberine lowers blood glucose in type 2 diabetes mellitus (Metabolism, 2010)
Randomized trial(s) reporting significant reductions in FPG, HbA1c, insulin and triglycerides with berberine; proposed mechanisms include increased insulin receptor expression and AMPK activation
Dong H., et al., Berberine in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (Systematic review/meta-analysis, 2012).
Pooled evidence suggested berberine improves glycemic control and lipids, but authors caution about low methodological quality, small sample sizes and potential bias in the included trials.
so yes, berberine really does lower blood glucose
would mean a lot if you marked this as the solution btw

Berberine is an insulin secretagogue targeting the KCNH6 potassium channel - Nature Communications
Berberine is a compound with glucose-lowering effects in mice and humans. Here, the authors show that in mice berberine has beneficial glycemic effects by promoting insulin secretion, which requires the potassium channel KCNH6 in beta cells, and that berberine can promote insulin secretion in...www.nature.com

berberine can slightly lower IGF-1Would it afect igf1?
ceylon cinnamon (true cinnamon, cinnamomum verum) can modestly help lower blood glucoseIm taking 25mg of ibutamoren and i want to lower glucose level, does ceylon cinnamon helps?![]()
what would you recommend to take with mk677 to help with insuline sensitivity?berberine can slightly lower IGF-1

you don't need mk677what would you recommend to take with mk677 to help with insuline sensitivity?
Just take gh browhat would you recommend to take with mk677 to help with insuline sensitivity?
I will.Just take gh bro
