0:00.0	If all we're getting is one day at a time to wake up and thank God we woke up today,
0:07.8	why not make this moment just a little bit better and brighter and funnier or more interesting or just more heartfelt?
0:15.1	So some people have a bandwidth and a desire for more or less.
0:18.8	And it's really just up to us to be honest with ourselves and say, are you feeling like you are as alive as you want to be?
0:25.0	And if you have that poking sense that you think, oh, I think I'm selling myself short, then maybe that's your opportunity to go live a little wider or deeper.
0:32.8	Welcome to the Melanie Avalon Biohacking podcast, where we meet the world's top experts to explore the
0:39.1	secrets of health, mindset, longevity, and so much more. Are you ready to take charge of your
0:45.0	existence and biohack your life? This show is for you. Please keep in mind. We're not dispensing
0:51.5	medical advice and are not responsible for any outcomes you may
0:55.3	experience from implementing the tactics lying herein. So friends, are you ready to join me? Let's do
1:01.8	this. Hi, friends. Did you know there is an ancient botanical that modern research shows performs on a level comparable to metformin when it comes to supporting healthy blood sugar levels? And not only that, this compound also supports the gut microbiome, healthy cholesterol levels, and even stimulates the AMPK pathway in the body to support cellular cleanup and longevity. You might have heard about AMPK. We talk about it a lot in the context of fasting, which also stimulates it. I am talking about
1:32.8	berberine. I take berberine every single day of my life and I see massive differences on my CGM,
1:38.5	my continuous glucose monitor when I use it. I take it to support my fast and before meals
1:43.0	to reduce blood sugar levels.
1:44.7	It is a powerhouse of a compound. And like I said, people are prescribed the pharmaceutical
1:49.2	metformin to control their blood sugar levels when they could be taking this completely natural
1:54.1	compound that has been used for thousands of years in both ancient traditional Chinese medicine
1:59.2	and Irivedic medicine. I wanted to make the best
2:02.0	berberine on the market, so that's why I created Avalon X Berberine 500. We did so much testing
2:07.9	to find the most potent, pure, and clean form available. There's no problematic fillers,
2:12.9	no common allergens, just pure, vegan, lab-tested berberine extracted from traditional sources.
2:19.5	Friends, I am not kidding the difference I see on my blood sugar levels with this burberine.
