[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 143206, member: 18023"] If any problems are 3 decades away, I am OK with that, likely be dead before that. :) Like many supplements, this is CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee extract, derived from green coffee beans. Something people have been drinking for a very long time, so it is tested that way. Granted, that doesn't make it safe, people have chewed and smoked tobacco for 2000 years. Moving on ... One reason I suspended Metformin was to see if it affected my exercise. As it can limit V02 max, perception of exercise intensity, raise heart rate, and exercise can interfere with the glucose-lowering effect of metformin. I have tried to get my max heart rate as high as I could by intermittently running sprints (8.5 mpg) for an hour. I got my heart rate to 151, covered about 4.5 miles on a 1% slope, last sprint I increase the slope to 2%. According to the formula, 220-age, I should be able to peak out at 153. (I know max heart rate figured this way isn't super reliable, but it does seem to usually work) When I go back on Metformin, it should be easy to compare exercise results. Not a big "trial" but close enough for government work. [/QUOTE]
