Walter, I know some people have stopped taking Metformin for their high blood pressure and metabolic syndrome and switched to natural supplements such as 1) Ashwagandha 2) Alpha Lipoic Acid and 3) Berberine.
My question is: Would any (or all) of these natural supplements have the same effect as Metformin with regard to degrading the spike protein? Why? Or why not?
Also, this doctor just spoke how simple "Pepto Bismo" ($2.50 at Walmart for generic brand) got many people with severe "covid" off the Ventilator. It is worth having at home for colds/flu/"Covid."
Fascinating info. Thanks for digging this up and posting! The main downside with clinical metformin use, in my experience, is that it blocks B12 absorption (one of the reasons I seem to see lots of neuropathy in TypeII DM?). Chronic users of metformin really should be on monthly B12 injections, I think.
You Go Walter. You Go! Reading through your posts is a study of an active, motivated mind applying informed hunches to new studies. This is a fascinating, honest approach; and, I think it will bear fruit, if it hasn't already. Again, I don't think I or any of your 'stackers can thank you enough.
Thank u Walter for this discussion. I use Metformin and Berberine for my metabolic syndrome patients and PCOS patients. I have found that some patients on metformin can develop fatty liver , others don’t . Seems like the patients with hyperlipidemia are more susceptible . Thanks for your insights, much appreciated 🤗
I think dmso is a game changer. At least for me, it’s done wonders. Not sure how it does it though. I wish I could do the IV therapy, but nobody offers it where I live. It doesn’t get the interest it deserves because it can’t be patented.
A few years ago metformin suddenly got bad press, I think it was around the beginning of covid, actually, but it didn't stick. Knowing how things have gone the last few years, that probably means it works to treat covid.
Are the nanotubes that form conduits between cells the same as filopodia or are they different structures with different functions? Cdc42 regulates fillpodia formation. Is that the same for nanotubes?

Thank you in advance for looking into this query.
Sadly most of my patients who got severe ICU level covid were on metformin...
A skewed sample to be sure as most have DM2
I love these Friday hope substacks! Thank you Walter.
Metformin is the only "drug" that Life Extension Co. has endorsed:

So interesting. Dovetails with your last post. Well done.

Excellent news Walter! Thank you very much. Have a great weekend. Peace. :-)
I just started the bromelain & nac and I was shocked at the near immediate "leveling up" I felt... thank you
I can just imagine how well it will over when I ask hubbies pulmonologist to prescribe Metformin for spike protein damages.
