How it works
Improve the body’s response to insulin.
Metformin primarily lowers glucose production by the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. It is well established for diabetes care. Its use specifically for longevity remains an area of ongoing research and is not a guaranteed anti-aging treatment.
The process
What to expect.
A clear, physician-guided path from your first conversation to follow-up.
- 01
Assess
Review blood sugar history, risk factors, medications, symptoms, and health goals.
- 02
Check
Review relevant labs, including kidney function and metabolic markers.
- 03
Decide
Discuss evidence, possible benefits, side effects, and alternatives before choosing.
- 04
Follow
If prescribed, monitor tolerance, laboratory results, and whether treatment remains useful.
The outcome
What results may look like.
Every person responds differently. The aim is meaningful improvement—not unrealistic promises.
- ✓A clear yes-or-no medical recommendation
- ✓Possible improvement in blood sugar control or insulin sensitivity
- ✓Ongoing safety monitoring instead of self-directed use
Metformin is a prescription medication. Gastrointestinal side effects are common, and kidney function, vitamin B12, other medications, and individual risk factors may need monitoring.
