Metformin is a diabetic drug though

But yeah, I'm not denying stimuli can play a factor, but there's no reason to reject genetics. Why reject genetics as a possible cause?

I'm still not sure on taking it

It's going to turn off MTOR

You won't be adding muscle

if you're eating soy then there's no hope for you

Or adapting to exercise as well

@TheUserNameofPeace <:oof:399031884312739841>

i added muscle fine on metformin

it mimics calorie restriction effects on longevity

you can use met for bodybuilding

same benefits as intermittent fasting

@Weaboo Kempeitai Okay, I can't say genetics doesn't predispose you to depression, but I don't believe it can be the sole cause

Yeah but it does that by turning off MTOR

TNSTAAFL

There's a price

You dont need MTOR

mtor is good

MTOR is primary building pathway

just eat clean

well i was taking metformin daily when running marathons

no problems at all

with muscle mass or recovery

wash your food before consumption

@Sytze Fair. I mean, I'm not denying that sombody predisposed to depression is guaranteed to get it. Alcoholism runs in many family, so I tend to stay away from booze. Similarly, sombody with depression running in the family would probably be advised to take better care of himself.

obviously everyones genetics is different

I'm not saying you can't recover but I doubt you were positively adapting

And I am saying your recovery will be slower

Even Sinclair, in his interview with Rogan, explained there's a tradeoff

I didnt have that problem

I would run a 50k and run a half the next day

You trade physical performance for longevity

Yeah but you were also on amps, yeah?
