For people who took metformin throughout life for diabetes, what long-term side effects did they experience? Did You Know This About Metformin?
If you’ve taken metformin for years, you might have noticed fatigue, numbness, or even vision issues. Here’s why: metformin depletes vitamin B12. And low B12? That leads to nerve damage, energy crashes, and cognitive decline.

From my experience in naturopathic medicine, I always advise checking B12 levels. If you’re supplementing, avoid cyanocobalamin—opt for methylcobalamin or adenosylcobalamin for better absorption.
