Aging is not one thing, there are many hallmarks. So re-youthing will require a combination of therapies.

**Talk to your doctor before starting any kind of radical protocol like this. Use at own risk.

This is based on many assumptions and largely on rodent studies (often interventions do not translate).

 

Optimizing a longevity protocol is complicated: Metformin depletes vitamin B12 and folate and this will raise homocysteine (there’s a debate whether homocysteine is directly harmful, or it is just a marker). So, metformin should be taken with Methylcobalamin(B12) and 6S-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate (a bioavailable version of folate). Metformin also lowers blood glucose, so it should help a person reach a state of ketosis (which can be further sped by taking BHB). But combining fasting with metformin could be dangerous, depending on the person (and a person with kidney problems can get lactic acidosis), and lead to hypoglycemia. Further, mixing High Intensity Interval training (HIIT) with fasting and metformin may hasten hypoglycemia. Metformin may also lower the effectiveness of exercise. Metformin also 'lowers the bar' for cells with damaged DNA to become senescent (which we would want to then kill with senolytics). Senolytics, theoretically, could be enhanced by being in a fasted/catabolic state. Shortly after a fast and a senolytic treatment would be an ideal time for hGH, exosomes (or a stem cell treatment).
