Metformin for Healthy Aging: 

How It Supports Metabolism, Inflammation, and Cellular Repair

Growth Hormone for Longevity | Webinar

Metformin has become one of the most talked-about medications in longevity and anti-aging medicine.

In this 15-minute course, Dr. Stephen Petteruti breaks down what metformin actually does inside your cells, how it influences inflammation, blood sugar, AMPK activation, and autophagy, and why it appears to reduce the long-term risk of chronic diseases—especially in people with metabolic challenges. 

You will learn how metformin affects blood sugar stability, endothelial function, cellular recycling, and the pathways linked to aging. This course explains who benefits most from metformin, who may not need it, how to interpret your hemoglobin A1c, and what the research suggests about longevity, cancer risk, diabetes, and metabolic health.

You’ll also hear about common side effects, medication interactions, and how metformin compares to natural alternatives such as berberine. If you are exploring metformin for anti-aging, metabolic support, inflammation reduction, or long-term disease prevention, this quick, direct lesson gives you a clear framework to help you make an informed decision.

Great courses tailored for doctors, blending evidence based research with practical application. I found the curriculums engaging and comprehensive. The flexible learning options and well-structured lessons make it perfect for busy professionals. Highly recommend for any physician looking to stay in the know for current practices.

I have purchased multiple courses from IMed University. The courses are clear, concise and easy to follow. If you have a follow up question, the authors are very easy to reach. They have provided me with the necessary tools to run safe and knowledgeable practice. I feel very grateful to have used Intellectual Medicine University and would highly recommend their services.

IMU has helped me grow my business. Not only that, it has helped my patients and that is what matters to me the most! I have been able to help clients when they have certain conditions and autoimmune disorders. I love having the different protocols at my disposal! Thank you for having this program!
