Attia and Huberman appear to be cautious as well: https://podcastnotes.org/huberman-lab/journal-club-with-dr-peter-attia-metformin-for-longevity-the-power-of-belief-effects-huberman-lab/ https://podcastnotes.org/huberman-lab/journal-club-with-dr-p... 2/3 cited are practicing doctors, and Huberman is, well, Huberman.

I’m all for changing one’s mind on something, but I get skeptical when they all follow the same position around the same cycle/time of “social media hype”. Attia for example changed his mind on fasting too recently. When that’s what arguably made him famous (see Limitless with Chris Hemsworth for example). The argument of doubling down on exercise in place of metformin seems a bit extreme for example. Most of us do not have the privilege to do so even if we’re quite active.
