I can recall the days in which Costello and I would eat a couple of pizzas and then we might get ice cream, that kind of thing. Then I felt perfectly fine on even up to 750 milligrams or a gram of Berberine.

berberine when ingested with carbohydrates in particular carbohydrates to have a lot of simple sugars definitely I know this because I measured my blood glucose I did the experiment allows you to flatten out your blood glucose response
if I took berberine and I don't recall the milligram count and then I ate you know 12 donuts I felt fine it was as if I had eaten one donut wow I felt sort of okay in my body and I felt much much better now um presumably because it's buffering the spikes in blood sugar I wasn't crashing in the afternoon nap and that whole thing
it would allow me and other people that recommended it to me that you could just eat like an entire box of donuts and feel fine because it would blunt your blood glucose response.
