How Does Berberine Work?
Berberine targets a very basic and ancient regulator of metabolism called AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Increased AMPK activity explains why berberine has so many diverse benefits.
For people with diabetes, AMPK activation: 

• Stimulates the uptake of glucose into the cells
• Improves insulin sensitivity
• Reduces glucose production in the liver

The researchers concluded, In summary, berberine is a safe, potent oral hypoglycemic [blood sugar lowering] agent with modest effect on lipid metabolism, blood pressure and weight.
As per in comparative study with metformin, berberine exhibited an identical effect in the regulation of glucose metabolism, such as HbA1c, FBG [fasting blood glucose], PBG [blood sugar after eating], fasting insulin and postprandial insulin [insulin level after eating]. In the regulation of lipid metabolism, berberine activity is better than metformin. Triglycerides and total cholesterol in the berberine group had decreased and were significantly lower than in the metformin group.

Side Effects:
Berberine side effects are minimal, and it is generally considered safe and well tolerated. In some people though, it can cause constipation, which usually clears up over time or with a reduction in dosage.
