Metformin's been shown to induce the autophagic degradation of RUNX2, which is CRUCIAL for osteogenesis and is upregulated at sites of calcification, a process that highly resembles physiological bone formation
HOW TO PROPERLY DOSE THIS WITHOUT GETTING ASSFUCKED BY THE SIDE EFFECTS:
500mg orally twice a day and titrate up from there
"Bu-but muh bloating! Lactic acidosis!" shut the fuck up ajnd pop an epl, most ur getting out of this is a headache
not saying this is gonna give u mms of bone mass but metformin costs like 2 cents with minimal side effects, might be sum worth trying
