I did not understand (in my quick reading) all the details. But the conclusion is very easy to understand:
Patients on a protocol containing metformin designed to treat patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease live eight years longer than patients in usual care treated under the old science. That is proof that we can slow aging and delay chronic illness now.
