Actionable Insights
1. Trial Berberine for High LDL
If you have high LDL, particularly when other markers like triglycerides, phytosterols, stanols, and desmostrol are not elevated, discuss with your healthcare professional the possibility of trying berberine. The speaker suggests a protocol of administering berberine and then observing LDL changes, especially since a test for PCSK9 overexpression is not readily available.
