Intermittent fasting and metformin to treat type2 diabetes


 Type 2 diabetes is a type of insulin resistant and the best drug to treat insulin resistant is metformin with various brands in local market

intermittent fasting is a fasting bahaviur upto 16 hours in a day to reduce insulin resistant by weight loss. Both work indirectly to lower insulin resistant and to improve blood suger absorption.

Now the question arises that if we take both action simultaneously .The answer is yes if you fast 16 hours only.If you fast for 24 hours then you can not take metformin dose because that can drop blood sugar to dangerously low level.
