Hi everyone!!!

I was just wondering if anyone knew of any meds or vitamins that may help met work faster/better. I have heard of taking a vitamin B complex and magnesium to help met work. Does anyone know if this is true or if there are any other things i can take to help the met work?THANKS~~

I was just going to post this. I have scalp hair loss, and I read that metformin can help but people see it getting worse b/c you become low in B vitamins from the med, and THAT causes sympomts, not the actual met.

I take each B vitamin , not a combo, b/c you get more that way - some of the combos have small amounts of each in them, not enough for someone taking met. I have a list somewhere I will post . I also take Iron + folic acid, coenzymeQ10, l lysine, womens hair/skin/nails formula, and an antioxidant.....
