What are your thoughts on Metformin for the natural health conscious individual?

Would you recommend an age requirement when supplementing with it?

2

Where’d you get that metformin is a supplement?

I know it is prescription. I mean supplementing an already good lifestyle for health/longevity.

5

Inhibits mTOR and activates AMPK

I just listened to the Joe Rogan / Ben Greenfield episode (I believe it’s the episode directly after the one you posted) where Ben refutes that anti-aging guy and talks about why you shouldn’t take metformin and yeah it can expand the amount of time you are on earth but at a quality of life cost. What I got out of it was that it isn’t ideal for an athlete or someone that lifts.
