@thepcosmentor: L-Carnitine and Berberine are two of my most popular supplements taken by women with PMOS/PCOS. But do you actually know WHY you're taking them, what they do in your body, or how they could help if you're thinking about trying them? Both have been studied in women with PMOS, particularly for insulin resistance, weight management, cholesterol and ovulation. But they work very differently in the body. L-Carnitine helps your body transport fatty acids into your mitochondria, where they can be used for energy. Research in women with PMOS has shown promising improvements in insulin resistance, BMI, cholesterol levels and ovulation. This is why it's often discussed for women struggling with the metabolic side of PMOS (the M in PMOS lol) Berberine works differently. It influences how your body regulates blood sugar, insulin and cholesterol. Studies in women with PMOS have shown improvements in insulin resistance, cholesterol, testosterone and ovulation. Your symptoms, bloodwork, and goals all matter when deciding what supplements are right for you. I'd love to know in the comments, have you tried L-Carnitine or Berberine? Did you notice a difference, or did you feel like they did absolutely nothing for you? ❤️ 💊 Want to try L-Carnitine or Berberine? I created both specifically for women with PMOS/PCOS through Health & Balance Vitamins. You can shop them through the link in my bio! ❤️
