13 Minutes of Berberine Hacks That Increase Fat Loss 600%!

One of the most powerful fat loss breakthroughs in history isn't new at all. It's over 3,000 years old. And studies show it can shrink your body mass index, BMI, by up to 13% in just 90 days. That's about two pounds a week for the average 200-pound adult. I'm talking about berberine, an ancient compound that not only helps lower blood
sugar, improve cholesterol, and keep blood pressure in check, but it can also drive serious fat loss. That's why it's been nicknamed by some as one of nature's ozempics. because it can dial your appetite in, just like the popular weight loss drug. And in some studies, it's even been equated to drugs like metformin, one of the most prescribed diabetes medication in the world because of the impact it can naturally have on your blood sugar levels. But here's the catch, your body barely absorbs it. In fact, without the right approach, you could be wasting up to 99% of what you take. That's why I'm gonna share the exact strategies that can make berberine work up to 600% better, unlocking its full fat burning potential. So if you're considering taking it for
fat loss, you don't want to miss this. Berberine is a natural compound found in plants like
barberry, golden seal, and Oregon grape. That bright yellow pigment that you see in some
herbal roots, it's berberine. It's been part of traditional medicine for over 3,000 years. And
way back, it was used for digestion. It was used for infections. It was used for vitality. But
today, we know it's capable of far more, including fat loss. In clinical studies, people taking berberine have lost more than double the weight of those on a placebo. And in trials, it has dropped blood sugar by as much as 21 to 36%, triglycerides 20 to 35%, and LDL cholesterol by 10 to 25%. These are the kind of changes that doctors are always after, yet it's from a natural source. So it can support a lot of different bodily functions, don't replace the medication with any of these, but berberine has a lot of benefits and impact on the body, and that's powerful. And for people over 45, berberine has another incredible advantage. It targets one of the biggest hidden reasons weight loss stalls. Fat stored in the liver. In one study, berberine cut liver fat by 57% in just 16 weeks. Clear that out, and then your metabolism can finally shift into fat-burning mode for your stomach and your thighs and your chin. Fat in the liver has to be burned up first. And the way that berberine
works is by activating something called AMPK. It's your body's energy control switch. When
AMPK is switched on, your body burns sugar and fat for fuel instead of locking them away in storage. It's
the same pathways that drugs like metformin target. Only here, it's coming from a plant. So
that's how it works. But this is the part most people miss. Your body absorbs berberine so poorly
that without the right approach, up to 99% of it could just go to waste. So you need the strategies
that I'm about to share if you want a chance to maximize its fat loss potential. Part one is a gut
priming strategy. Your gut bacteria and enzymes have the ability to transform berberine into a more
digestible form called dihydroberberine, which absorbs about five times better. Here's the
catch. If your gut bacteria and your gut enzymes aren't healthy, that transformation barely
happens. That means even if you're taking the perfect dose, you're not actually getting much of it where it
needs to go. So before you even think about adding stacks or timing tricks, you got to get the right gut
bacteria and the right gut enzymes thriving. Lactobacillus, bifidobacterium, you need gut bacteria,
you need digestive enzymes, amylase, and lipase, and you might need a little extra support through bile salts
and ox bile to help support your gallbladder in your liver in its activation and function with
berberine. Now, you don't need to memorize all these names, but you can start getting good
bacteria in your gut through food. You can increase them naturally through kefir. It's one of the
richest probiotic sources on the planet. It can have up to 4 billion live bacteria in a single cup. Yogurt with live cultures. It's got to say with live cultures on it. That's another easy choice. Live and active cultures is normally what you'll see right on that label. So make sure you get the good stuff. Unpasteurized sauerkraut, 25 billion live bacteria per cup. Kimchi, up to 250 billion live bacteria per cup. Tempe, miso, fermented soy products. Make sure they're non-GMO. They can be a good source of healthy bacteria. Kombucha. It's a fizzy fermented tea with a mix of beneficial bacteria and yeast.
Just watch the sugar content. In addition to regular eating those foods, you could also add in a
probiotic supplement. I highly recommend adding in digestive enzymes for supplementation. Amylase,
lipase, ox bile salts. Very important to breaking down the foods inside of your body, especially
berberine. Also, just eating the right foods can help your body use berberine more effectively. Eating the
wrong ones can stop fitness tracks. For example, eating too much sugar in processed foods will feed
the harmful bacteria that compete with the strands that you actually need. And if you're not getting
enough fiber from things like leafy greens or berries or beans, those good bacteria won't have
anything to feed them and they'll start to die off. Now, the second part is we want to enhance the
absorption. While we're still on the topic of getting your body to actually use the berberine that you
take, the next strategy is what I call the enhanced absorption stack. Your gut has
built-in bouncers, Special proteins that push certain substances, including berberine, they push them back out before they reach your bloodstream. But some natural compounds can block those bouncers, distract them, and open the doors so that berberine gets through. And the difference can be massive. Research shows that when you pair berberine with the right helpers, it can increase absorption by as much as five to 600%. And that can turn a dose that barely does anything into one that delivers incredible results. Here's some of the most effective options. One is the digestive enzymes, breaking foods down, putting into your body
properly absorbs fat, eating verberine with a bit of fat. Now it's not exactly like a fat soluble vitamin, but that can enhance absorption. Kercetin is a plant compound found in apples,
onions, green tea, that can help absorption. And you often need more than you can get from food. So
supplement form could be really good as far as adding in kercetin can be some of your best bet. It's in
my vitamin C powder. It's in my immune support. I use carosetin regularly myself. Another
ingredient is curcumin, that bright yellow pigment in turmeric. Not only does it block the bouncers in your
gut, but it also helps reduce inflammation in the gut, which can help improve absorption. Now
you're going to need 500 to 1000 milligrams of the powder to get enough to absorb, to have an impact.
Or if you use an emulsified form, you only need 100 or 200 milligrams because it absorbs up to 40
times more effective, taking that at the same time as your berberine can make a big difference
on the absorption levels. And one more important note, just know that these also can
enhance the absorption of certain medications. So if you are taking prescriptions, separate them from
these enhancers. Be sure to talk to your pharmacist or your doctor about it, of adding in extra
ingredients when you're already using a medication. Next, just like your muscles adapting to a
workout, if you do the exact same exercises every single day, your metabolism can adapt to a supplement
or to an ingredient like this too. So if you take berberine nonstop for months, your body
can kind of start to respond less. And then your fat loss slows down, even if you haven't changed your
dose. So the fix is to cycle berberine. At minimum, I recommend people using it for two weeks for
cleansing, but up to 12 weeks. And then you could cycle off for a few weeks or a month and then put
it back on again. And that short break resets your system so that when you start back up, it
works like it did on day one. And then during those weeks off, it's important to maintain the
habits that make berberine effective. Eating properly, gut-friendly foods, sticking with
balanced meals, staying active with regular movement. If you treat those off weeks as a free pass for sugar and
processed foods, you'll begin to undo all the progress that you've made using berberine as a tool. So
now that you're getting more berberine into your system, absorbing more of it, the next step is to
make sure that you take it at the right time. Berberine doesn't stay active all day long. It works
hardest during a four to five hour window. That's why timing your doses can make a really big
difference in your results. If your main goal is controlling blood sugar and preventing fat storage
after meals, take it 20 to 30 minutes before you eat. This is when it can help flatten the blood
sugar spike that comes from your food, which keeps insulin lower so then your body can burn more
fat. If you exercise, there's also another opportunity. Take it about 45 minutes
before your workout. And this combines berberine's activation of that AMPK energy control switch with the boost that you naturally get from exercise. Helps you switch into fat burning mode faster and more intense. But no matter when you take it, before meals, before a workout, or both, aim for multiple doses spaced evenly throughout the day. I like to take a dose in the morning and then a dose in the evening as an ideal spacing. that keeps that active window going without such big gaps. Now to make this easy, so berberine is super impactful on weight because of what it does to the liver. So that's exactly why I added it to my Living Good Daily Liver Support. It has the digestive enzymes, it has multiple liver supporters, including berberine, so that your liver can burn up that fat. So then you can tap into fat burning mode, let alone detoxify your body. That is taken as a cleanse for two weeks daily supporter ongoing. You can check that out. I put it in the link below. It's the
one I use in the proper form with the other absorbers along with it to give you the best results.
Two capsules in the morning, two at night if you're cleansing, or just two capsules a day to help
support ongoing weight loss efforts and to help with the hardest working organ in your body, your
liver. Now, finally, you're changing your food. Maybe you're adding in the supplementation.
Even if your gut is primed, even if your absorption is boosted, you're cycling the right way.
You're using it. you're cleansing with it, your timing's perfect. The one thing that can shut down berberine's fat burning effects almost instantaneously is stress. When stress goes up, your body releases cortisol. High cortisol blocks AMPK activation. That's the very switch, if you remember, that berberine is trying to turn on by as much as 30 to 40% that can be suppressed because of stress. That means you could be doing everything right and still losing far less fat than you should. So managing cortisol, It's not just about living a stress-free life that's impossible to do. It's about building simple habits that prevent it from staying high all day long. It's more so managing your peace instead of your stress. So some habits that have been scientifically proven to reduce cortisol include getting seven to nine hours of quality of sleep a night. Even one bad night can spike cortisol the next day. Take a few minutes for slow, deep breathing. When you feel tense, we call this paced breathing. Five second deep breaths in, five second deep breaths out. Do that for a minute, kind of like mimicking smoking a cigarette. Just don't actually smoke the cigarette. It's been shown to lower cortisol almost immediately. Keep up with some moderate exercise. Use walks to your favor. You just need enough to get your heart rate up, but not so much that it leaves your body just drained and inflamed. Support your body with nutrients that can help regulate stress. Magnesium is a huge friend there. Magnesium glycinate especially helps it. aptogenic herbs like ashwagandha and rhodiola. But keep in mind, you can't
supplement your way out of chronic stress, but you can lifestyle your way out of it. You can help to put in
habits that maintain it and control it. Berberine works best in a body that's not
constantly being told to store fat by high cortisol stress levels. So if you can get this under control,
you'll be creating the perfect environment for all the other strategies to pay off. Next, if
you want to hear about another supplement that can increase fat loss as much as, and in some cases,
even more than berberine, you have to see my other video. In one study, people using this
supplement lost twice as much weight as the placebo group in just eight weeks without changing their diet or
exercise. It also flattens blood sugar spikes, cuts your cravings, and it even helps you burn
fat in your sleep. So if you're serious about fat loss, you're looking for the best natural
supplements to make it happen. You don't want to miss this video. I'll include a link to it right here.
