Most people could benefit from taking Berberine because it affects many important functions.
Insulin resistance and inflammation are getting more and more common and are factors that Berberine can influence.
The research published by Anil Poudel and the other authors demonstrated that Berberine improved cytokine-induced inflammation (Poudel A, et al., 2019).
A review of 21 articles by other researchers also found Berberine to have an anti-inflammatory effect (Kalmarzi RN, et al., 2019).
Insulin resistance leads to increased inflammation which is involved in all kinds of chronic conditions and increases pain and the risk for cardiovascular disease.
