ToniiqBerberine HCl — 100:1 Concentrated Extract • 97% Berberine HCl • Third-Party Tested cGMP — Berberine Supplement — 90 Vegetarian Capsules, 500 mg per Capsule

I was previously on other medications for insulin resistance, but due to insurance issues, I had to find an alternative, which led me to Berberine. This brand claimed to be one of the most highly concentrated Berberine products on the market, boasting an astonishing purity level of 97%.Even though this brand doesn't claim to help you lose weight or reduce appetite, I decided to give this brand a chance based on what I've read about Berberine, the product description, and the reviews.At first, I was skeptical because I've tried other supplements that claim to reduce appetite with little success. I started taking Berberine in mid-August, and honestly, I'm not the best at consistently taking supplements as I tend to forget. This one requires taking one capsule three times a day, but I initially started with just one. I wasn't the most disciplined with taking them, but I did notice some changes in my cravings. This week, I began taking two capsules per day, and it has significantly reduced my appetite and sugar cravings.I feel more in control of my dietary choices, and that's a significant win for someone dealing with insulin resistance.While I haven't seen any weight loss, the fact that I've been able to maintain my weight without any exercise is a significant win for me, as I tend to gain weight easily.I don't know if it's the black packaging (which I really appreciate for its discrete and elegant design), and I can't compare it to other brands, but these capsules are bright yellow. Regardless of the reason, I do notice that they are a bit bitter once I put them in my mouth. However, a quick sip of water eliminates the bitterness completely, and there's no aftertaste. This is easy on my sensitive stomach, and I haven't experienced any discomfort or digestive issues, which is a huge relief.In summary, Berberine has exceeded my expectations, helping me regain control over my cravings and maintain my weight. It's a quality supplement that is gentle on the stomach and delivers results.

Toniiq Ultra High Strength Berberine HCl 500mg from The Himalayas - Berberine Supplement - 97% Tested Purity Extract - Wild Harvested - Concentrated Berberine 500mg Supplements -90 Veggie Capsuleshighly purified super concentrated extract, making it one of the most highly concentrated berberine products on the market. Our berberine contains an unprecedented purity level of 97% (most Berberine 1000mg and Berberine 1200mg supplements won't reveal their purity levels).Higher purity means more of the active compounds that give berberine its powerful health-promoting properties.I didn’t realize this brand was trending and while I am happy with it, won’t continue.I HAVE HAD NO SIDE EFFECTS. No irritable belly, no gas, no bloating. If anything I don’t notice it at all. I am happy to be a person that can take it, but understand that all bodies are different! Taking this for a year now and the quality is excellent and dosage makes it so you only need to take one a day. Very effective on my blood pressure and blood sugar.

Be careful of the interactions with blood pressure meds.

If you have a sensitive stomach I highly recommend that you DO NOT take this! Toniiq berberine is probably one of the best out there. 1st day I took it as directed. Tho I decided to skip my Lantus (70 units at bedtime) which I do every once in a while to give myself a break. Anyway. The next day my 1st reading was 83! Without insulin! Normally my 1st readings are 160-200+ WITH insulin! (They call it sunrise surprise) so this stuff really works! So I can tell you it worked great for me. My problem is that I have a sensitive stomach and it absolutely Tore. Me. Up! Severe heartburn and nausea. I was up all night with it. Next day I only take 2 - that night I was up all night again. Next day I only took 1. At least I could lay down to sleep finally. In my misery I forgot to check my #s. I was just too miserable. I regret that now. I was all attracted to the 97% purity and the 82 times more than something (powder?) that I can't remember. What I was taking was working just great! It brought my #s down significantly. Almost every single one was less than 100. There were no side effects at all. LumaNutrition 1200 mg. I'm going back to that tonight. I talked with the folks at Toniiq and they are giving me my money back and they were really nice. I will tell you that she said my reaction was not typical. 3 days later tho and I still have a touch of nausea and heartburn. So. Can't say I didn't warn you! Anyway the main take away is that berberine is the real deal. The research is just plain wrong to me. They (the research) say it's like metformin. Oh no it's not! It is sooooooo much better than metformin! And also the research, for the most part, doesn't tell you that you're not supposed to take it beyond 6 months. So I've been taking it about 6 1/2 weeks now and after my blood draw on Wed I am going to stop and take a 3 week break. That way I can keep taking it over the long haul. So sensitive stomach people I recommend LumaNutrition 1200 mg. For the rest of you who have normal or strong stomachs I recommend the Toniiq 500 mgs 3 times a day. ALL OF YOU MUST TAKE THIS WITH FOOD! It's an absolute must! 💯Sept 4th update: A1C: 7.6 down to 6.3! (Sorry I'm a little late with the update) but man I'll take 6.3 all day long! I know "technically" it's still high but "technically" I'm happier than a bear eating salmon! I mean really! Come on! 5.6 or lower? For someone with diabetes that just seems impossible. IDK with the way things are going - a little tweak here and a little tweak there I just might make it with the help of berberine. Bottom line? You don't need all those fancy shamsy supplements. With this and that in it that costs you $50 and only has a titch of berberine? But if you pulled my hair and threatened to put toothpicks in my eyes and forced me to say - I would say at most maybe get a berberine/ceylon cinnamon one. It must be ceylon cinnamon. You do the research cassia v ceylon. And you want minimum 1,500 mgs. Oh and about the food part I was meaning the toniiq. I don't think I was paying attention to what I ate before I took it and vice versa. But either way I'm sticking to my Luma Nutrition. (1200 mg) good luck y'all!

I have used this for over a year and like this brand a lot. No issues with stomach upset at all. It does help with managing glucose levels as well. I would highly recommend
