893. Metformin and B12

One of the most prescribed medications in the world is Metformin. It's the go-to drug given to diabetics and pre diabetics to regulate their blood sugar. The drug may help control blood sugar but it doesn't fix the root problem of insulin resistance. With all medications, there are side effects, and with Metformin it destroys your vitamin B12 levels. You need optimized levels of B12 to help regenerate your brain. In fact, there are many different organs that benefit from B12.
