Well, THAT is my main point. How do you get an RX if you are not diabetic? Right now, you can’t so until it becomes like aspirin for cardiovascular disease, it’s a real issue.
There’s a lot they need to study here; metformin is NOT a cure all for cancer. In fact, actual controlled breast cancer studies showed that it did not have any benefit at all for EITHER type of cancer - estrogen positive or negative.
