Here’s an article by Dave Asprey, the creator of Bulletproof Coffee, about why he stopped taking Metformin. Here’s a study about Metformin and sleep disorders. Here’s an article about whether Metformin affects sexual dysfunction. Here’s an article about how Metformin is not so good for aerobic exercise.
