This week I review a July 2022 study on berberine and it's effects on reducing arterial plaque after 16 weeks of use.  

Berberine (BBR) is an active compound isolated from Chinese traditional medicine Coptidis Rhizoma and has been used to treat bacterial-caused diarrhoea as an over-the-counter (OTC) drug in China for decades.

In Conclusion, scientists recently found berberine can decrease arterial plaque in the carotid artery by some 3.2% after 16 weeks of use!

"21 patients with atherosclerosis exhibited the average decrease of plaque score by 3.2% after oral BBR (500 mg, twice daily) for 4 months (*P < 0.05, n = 21)."

This potentially could be a safe and effective use to help reduce arterial plaque and is worth looking into!
