Health benefits of metformin vs cancer and increasing longevity


Diabetes Drug: Anti-Aging in a Pill?

Repost from Newsmax health | July 31, 2013

Certain benefits are derived from taking metformin.  It was used before only as anti diabetic drug (for type 2 diabetes.)

It also has been found to reduce the risk of cancer.

In right dosage, metformin seems to increased the longevity of mice;  too much dosage shortened the lifespan of mice.  Metformin helped in metabolism of sugar and decreased weight (it is extensively being prescribed as a weight loss medicine and better than Bangkok pills which have side effects)  Thus explained Rafael de Cabo, head researcher of National Institute of Aging (NIA) in a US National Institute of Health Release

Metformin is the safest of all anti diabetic drugs.
