Re: research finding out more re how metformin might prevent breast cancer, its growt

Laurel,
I can't help but think how many drugs were developed for one purpose and then it was discovered that the drug was a perfect remedy for another disease!

We should be so lucky that this would be an answer.
I believe there is a study starting on this.

Best Wishes,
Jean
