Thanks for the reply and I also realized I don't do Fasting labs, have not for many years. So that would also have an influence on the outcome of the labs. And I did get a response from another health member and they have been taking Berberine for a long time, up to 2 grains daily but I will certainly start slowly when I get my supply.

Just the fact that I've taken bread out of my foods over 10 yrs ago is an area where I took control to keep diabetes away.
