Metformin isn’t just a “diabetes drug” in an integrative plan it can be one of many tools to improve metabolic health, support healthy aging, and reduce inflammation 🩺✨
As a naturopathic physician, my first approach is always root-cause and lifestyle-driven, including nutrition, movement, stress support, and targeted supplementation. For some patients, those changes alone don’t fully shift insulin resistance, inflammation, or hormone imbalance. That’s when we may consider evidence-based prescriptions like metformin.
💡 Research suggests metformin may help:
• Improve insulin sensitivity
• Support modest weight loss when paired with lifestyle changes
• Reduce chronic inflammation
• Support PCOS and fertility health
• Promote healthy mitochondrial function
It’s not for everyone and requires proper monitoring, labs, and an individualized plan.
