Berberine helped break plateau

[jmikes]

I have been on compound tirzepatide for nine months. I was stuck at five pounds from my goal weight. I have lost 70 pounds and am only on 5mg. I didn't want to titrate up for the last few pounds. I tried 2000mg/day of berberine, and poof, I am just below goal weight in a week.

Huh, never heard of Berberine before. I've got a bit of reading to do!

It’s the active compound in turmeric, and is often mixed with black pepper and cinnamon. It’s been touted as nature’s ozempic (idk about that, studies are “promising but inconclusive,” but I like it nonetheless). I used it a lot the last time I lost weight, which was also my most successful pre-GLP drop (I was also diet/exercising). It has nice anti-inflammatory properties!

Berberine? “Nature’s Ozempic” is Olympic gymnastics level of stretching. Nature’s metformin maybe.
