Energy, yes.
Intelligence, not directly. But I can provide links that caloric restriction diets do (that means diets that are sufficiently strict that you lose weight no matter what weight you currently have). (And that's in adults, in children they cause total disasters)
Since this is the working mechanism of that drug, I felt it relevant to put there.
- hendersoon 9y agoPlease cite sources or stop spreading FUD. I'm not a physician, but I've heard that like many life-saving drugs, Metformin's working mechanism is not yet well understood. It's a vast oversimplification and likely completely _wrong_ that Metformin has the same effect as calorie restriction. If that was so, logic dictates that Metformin would be effective for weight loss. It isn't.
