Have you heard that Chinen Salt Works for Type 2 Diabetes?

Chinen salt is an herbal supplement – don’t confuse it with table salt or any other salts. It is not a salt, despite the name. Typically, it comes from a plant known as Chinese goldthread (Coptis Chinensis). It is also known for its healing properties in Traditional Chinese Medicine to treat various ailments.

You can find Chinen salt sold as Chinese goldthread, Chinese coptis, Coptidis Rhizoma, and Coptis chinensis. These are the common names for Chinen Salt.

It’s believed that this supplement helps with Type 2 Diabetes symptoms. This herb is beneficial in managing the blood sugar levels of those who suffer from chronic conditions. It improves circulation and insulin resistance. As a result, many people with Type 2 Diabetes turn to this traditional remedy to help manage their disease.

Berberine Chloride 

Berberine chloride1https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Berberine-chloride is the primary active ingredient in Chinen salt. It lowers blood glucose levels in animals and type 2 diabetics2https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2410097/. This is an important finding, as it suggests that this supplement may be useful in managing diabetes. Berberine can also help regulate blood fat levels and possess anti-inflammatory properties that protect your kidneys.

Chinen supplements are a potent alternative to drugs typically used to treat Type 2 Diabetes. However, there are not enough studies about these advantages of Chinen salt. Traditional Chinese Medicine frequently uses herbal formulas with berberine produced from Chinese goldthreads3https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-471/goldthread.  

There are three primary forms that these herbal supplements come in: pill, powder, and liquid extract. The name “Chinen salt” is not frequently used on items made from Chinese goldthread, so it may be confusing to know how to properly utilize the product.

Is Chinen Salt safe and does it work for Type 2 Diabetes?

Supplements derived from Berberine and Chinese goldthread are well tolerated by most people and have no reported negative side effects.

It is important to distinguish between Chinen and Himalayan salts. These two salts are different. Himalayan salt comes from the Himalayan mountains and has a pinkish hue due to minerals such as iron. On the other hand, Chinen salt is a refined herbal supplement that comes from Chinese goldthread, which is a plant and is not an actual salt. 

Chinen salt also has many benefits besides lowering blood sugar and preventing inflammation. It is also believed to prevent muscle cramps, aid ear infections, lessen acne, and help with digestive disorders. Even though there are studies about this herb and its benefits, it is still important to use caution before consuming it. 

Always consult your doctor before starting any new supplement.
