Can Insulin Resistance Be Treated with Herbs?

Yes, multiple clinical studies have proven that certain herbs can significantly improve insulin sensitivity. However, herbs work as a complement to a healthy lifestyle, not a replacement.

1. Berberine - The Strongest Scientifically

Berberine is a plant compound extracted from several plants. It is considered the strongest proven herb for insulin resistance treatment, matching metformin 1500mg/day in effectiveness.

2. Cinnamon - The Most Common

Ceylon Cinnamon is preferred as it contains less toxic coumarin. Studies show it reduces fasting blood sugar by 3-5% and improves insulin sensitivity by 15-20%.
