[QUOTE="Holden, post: 68669, member: 14596"] Thanks Nelson! Great articles! So given these and other recent studies and articles, curious if your opinion has changed since June 2015 where you posted, "[COLOR=#333333]I would only take metformin if[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333] I am fat, have glucose intolerance or insulin resistance. [/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]It can lower your T and B vitamins (if you are on TRT and taking vitamins this is a moot subject). [/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]It can cause gut distress at doses higher than 1000 mg per day. It can also lower appetite." Here's my situation: I'm not fat, but prob 10lbs overweight, 6'1', 195lbs my A1C is not bad 5.5, Glucose 90 (65-99) Triglycerides 98 Total Chol 172 HDL 43 LDL 109 VLDL 20 my cardio vascular system seems fine ( CT scan with contrast, 0.0 calcium, no stenosis ), I am 50 yrs old so starting to consider best approaches for avoiding cancer, and longer term Alzheimers. I am a Defy patient and working through the testosterone situation. Appreciate your latest views on metformin :) thanks! -H[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
