Abstract in brief

  • The results showed that berberine alone did not significantly improve cholesterol levels like total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, or HDL when compared to routine therapy or statins; however, it did reduce markers of inflammation and artery thickness, such as hsCRP, IL6, TNF, and IMT.
  • When combined with statins, berberine further improved several clinical indicators, including cholesterol, inflammatory markers, and measures of artery health, without increasing adverse reactions, suggesting it could be a promising and safe alternative or complement in CVD treatment.]

@bellzzz21 @5MinuteBody Everyone would perish if arteries were "clogged" 100% Carnivore fixed inflammation I supplement with berberine - which in some studies has shown to actually decrease plaque (if deposits exist) as well as upregulate AMPK and improve insulin sensitivity. https://t.co/UpnG3Y4ztf
