Weight loss / Longevity (Metformin)

Explore a well-established metabolic medicine through a diagnosis-driven plan.

How it may help: Metformin is FDA-approved to improve blood-sugar control in type 2 diabetes. Clinicians also prescribe it off-label for selected people with prediabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome, or other insulin-resistance-related concerns. Some patients experience modest weight loss.

What to expect: Stomach upset, diarrhea, and reduced appetite are common when starting. Your clinician should review kidney and liver function, alcohol use, pregnancy, contrast-imaging plans, and vitamin B12 over longer treatment. Rare lactic acidosis is an emergency.
