Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy of Berberine in treating gastric intestinal metaplasia in Helicobacter pylori-negative adults. It will also learn about the safety of Berberine. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does Berberine promote the regression of IM in individuals without Helicobacter pylori infection? What medical problems do participants experience when taking Berberine? Researchers will compare Berberine to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if uBerberine is effective in treating gastric intestinal metaplasia.

Participants will:

TakeBerberine or a placebo every day for 6 months. Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests.
