Berberine program to prevent diabetes in people with metabolic syndrome
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a berberine-based program can help prevent diabetes in adults with metabolic syndrome. It may be helpful if you have several risk factors like abdominal weight gain, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and abnormal cholesterol or triglycerides.
