Re: big step towards preventing metastasis of breast cancer!
very interesting. I decided i wanted to be metformin years ago. basically told my doctor what i found out and asked him to write a script for me. have been on it since with absolutely no problems.
compelling information regarding the benefits on metformin has been out there for years.
alot of docs will not rec., as it is off label....
also it's super super cheap, so no money to be made for the biggie companies.
