Dihydroberberine is the solution to glucose metabolism?

This is being hailed as the solution to the poor bioavailability of berberine hcl. When will nootropics depot offer this and for the competitors on the market, are they lying of their purity and dosages for dihydroberberine?
Bonus question: Since berberine may inhibit muscle growth due to mtor signalling then is it advisable to have 3-4x servings a week on high days(high carb days), a fella who has high end of fasting glucose may benefit more from berberine though and it may outweigh the possible negative of motor signalling(also is the effect to muscle building really that large or is it negligible?)

Excellent. Thanks a lot for ur response. Is the effect on mtor really that significant to make an impact on muscle building? 3-4x servings a week should be alright?

I have not personally noticed an adverse effect on muscle mass, and I take berberine daily. However, I also take epicatechin daily, which helps conserve and increase muscle mass. I always take berberine with epicatechin for that reason.
