As research into Metformin and other potential anti-aging interventions continues, we may be on the cusp of a new era in how we approach health and longevity...
Metformin contains the active ingredient of guanidine, the active compound of the French Lilac (Galega officinalis), a plant used since the middle ages for the treatment of diabetes. The literature suggests that this may be available with a good diet of whole grain rice and turnips. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0045206823002614
As the board-certified specialization of life style medicine moves towards to critical mass, we may well see more research on how we can use food as the ultimate medicine.
I've read about metformin in David Sinclair's book and it appears to be a good palliative. But I have found the radical secret of aging and how to defeat it. If my method holds true (it has for me for 28 years, at age 76) then I am the greatest visionary and innovator in human history. I would love to share it in a private conversation and discuss its use with Thom and perhaps some other intellectuals.
Doug, I'm just seeing your comment. My very simple idea is to daily replace DHEA, a natural hormone precursor, safe and cheap in stores, that declines in us after middle age. My book DHEALTHY, Never Get Old is on Amazon, and I can provide low morning doses for startup.
Now it's a year later, we're older and maybe wiser. My book is out on Amazon: DHEAlthy, Never Get Old. I still haven't aged since 1996 but have overcome most all the ills of aging.
