Summary
There is ample evidence for scientists to form a indirect-hypothesis that Metformin at the very least makes people healthier than otherwise by activating AMPK, removing sugar from the bloodstream, triggering the benefits of sugar restriction. Direct human anti-aging evidence (clinical trials) is in progress and not complete.
