I'd like to know if anyone has knowledge of or experience with using aspirin to lower blood glucose and reduce insulin resistance. I've read about several studies that seem to show high dose aspirin (>1g/day) can actually improve these things, published as far back as 2001, but I can't find anyone online recommending it as a therapy similar to metformin for T2 diabetics.
I'm a T2 diabetic currently on 1500mg/day of metformin. I also take alpha lipoic acid and am interested in any other supplements or medications that could improve my insulin resistance with minimal risk of side effects. My thinking is that reduced insulin resistance would mean more energy and less sugar converted to fat, which in turn would help with weight loss.
