What this episode covers

Metformin is known for its many sound effects, for instance, against diabetes and prolonging life. However, a new study in Nature Metabolism said that metformin is toxic for older organisms. Is this true? In this video, let's talk about metformin, its benefits, and whether it promotes long life. We'll also mention how a drug called rapamycin or sirolimus affects metformin, longevity, and autophagy.
