My RN agreed to prescribe me Metformin (minimal dose once a day) because I am showing signs of metabolic syndrome (Peter Attia describes it well). High cholesterol, high-ish sugar, elevated ALT level, lots of belly fat, 5’7 and 198 lb.
So far only positives; I’ve lost 3-4 lb in less than a month and have much more energy. I have bloodwork scheduled in 3 months to monitor.
