[QUOTE="rafapark, post: 131455, member: 18441"] I have been doing some reading on Metformin and also in Jay Campell's book where he supports the use of metformin for anti aging purposes. I also watched the Nelson's video with Jay. There is a thread in this forum that also that talks about metformin and its relationship with SHBG and Testosterone. From what I have read, including Nelson's link from pub med, metformin increases SHBG levels and decreases free testosterone. I then have to assume that a person with a high SHBG (my SHBG is 53 for example) should not be taking metformin. I'd love to try metformin for anti aging purposes but I was able to reduce my SHBG from 81 to 53 and would not like to see it creeping up again. Am I looking at this correctly? Any guidance would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
