📝 Description

Metformin is a medication primarily used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, particularly in people who are overweight. It is also used in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome. It works by decreasing glucose production by the liver and increasing the insulin sensitivity of body tissues. In recent years, it has gained significant attention in the longevity and biohacking communities. Some researchers and doctors believe it may have anti-aging properties and could potentially extend lifespan by mimicking the effects of caloric restriction and improving metabolic health.
