I have not heard about anti aging effects but apart from standard indications, I know it helps to loose weight and to an extent prevents obesity. In a oblique manner it may be also a way to deage yourself but… How do you know about the anti-aging effect and what does it mean really? It doesn’t reverse time obviously.
I am sorry, to doubt. It just seems to be an extraordinary claim.
Much of the harm of aging is the increased likelihood of getting many diseases such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimer’s, and strokes as you age. From my limited understanding, Metformin reduces the age-adjusted chance of getting many of these diseases and thus it’s reasonable, I believe, to say that Metformin has anti-aging effects.
Oh, ok, I get it slows down ageing. I hoped that you may know of some evidence that it reverses degeneration. in retrospect, I can see that you wrote anti and not de ageing , so the misunderstanding is entirely my fault. Thanks for your clarification 😊
