[QUOTE="Energize, post: 1312508, member: 28960"] Hi Freema My understanding is that Metformin helps the insulin in your body get utilised better by the cells, especially if there is Insulin Resistance, which Type 2s tend to have, at least initially. I don't think it actually lowers your glucose levels as such, other than help the insulin be more effective, hence glucose levels may well drop a little bit. [/QUOTE]
