The people who've been labeled with long Covid are metabolic disasters, which has a multitude of preexisting and progressively worsening conditions. Get them on Metformin for a bit. Lo and behold the root of most of their health problems is under control, and oh shocker their 'long covid' symptoms disappear too. If they were to just drink water and tea for a week, no food (longer if they're huge) much of the same benefit would happen.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

Not according to multiple studies.

But, I still appreciate your hot takes.

Fasting to resolve brain damage is an interesting suggestion

"Participants had a median age of 35.5 years (IQR: 27 to 44), and the cohort was diverse in terms of sex and race and ethnicity (Table 1). Participants were generally healthy and most (77%) did not report pre-existing comorbid medical conditions; the most common comorbidities were lung disease (14%), hypertension (10%), and diabetes (5%)."

#MetabolicDisasters
Wow, citing a study with 104 people. Brilliance. If you don't know Covid severity and longevity of symptoms are heavily dependent on metabolic syndrome you're a bigger retard than I thought, and the thousands of hours you've spent being a Covidian are even more sad. It's as basic knowledge as knowing being severely obese puts someone at much higher risk of type 2 diabetes. But one could pull up a bunch of studies each with 100 participants in their 30s who don't have diabetes despite most being morbidly obese. "See no connection between obesity and diabetes herp derp!!!" Your posts are an insult to health and science. I think this will be the first time I neg your stupidity.


But hey you're great with using Google search.

So what's next... Thick Covid? Thin Covid? Dense Covid??
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

Well no, it was the study in the OP.

Your comment was that everyone was a "metabolic disaster".

Metformin is for diabetics.

The majority of people in this study were young and otherwise healthy.

Did you comment without looking at the study?

Just a general comment to support the narrative?

I dunno dude... Word around the campfire says this one has a 99.999999999999996% survival rate.

That's a LOT worse than the 99.999999999999999% chance of survival from all the other covids!

I'm scared. There's something out there, and it ain't no man..... We're all gonna die.

Well, you take a chance getting up in the morning, crossing the street, or sticking your face in a fan.

49% were considered overweight or obese.


Also, only 7% of them had omicron. The rest had delta or earlier.



But please, feel free to keep preaching about how terrible Covid is and how “safe and effective” the injections are. Hopefully you can convince a few more retards, but just remember even people like Wincel are no longer lining up to get your injections and haven’t for a long time.

Metformin is the most effective medication so far at preventing long Covid. You bring up this topic, yet don't know that.
https://www.health.com/diabetes-drug...-covid-7548320

The table from the study you pulled says N=104. he he he hahahahahaha

And it's already well established that SARS2 itself is at least as much a metabolic exposing virus as anything else. And just 7 of the participants were verified to have had Omicron, a subvariant which 75% of the US population had been infected with in 2022. The study you're citing has garbage sampling, tiny sampling funded by the CDC. LOL on that too. The CDC pretended the vax was superior to prior infection in preventing infection for about half a year by cherrypicking one area of one state (Ohio) for that declaration, which they were forced to retract well after it was known it was false.

For a Covidian you sure don't seem to know much about it. You make complaints about studies others provide, but you've trotted this one out? Wow.

Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

The claim was that all participants were metabolic disasters and the majority were morbidly obese.

At least you finally read it.

You don't like it, but you read it.

Impressive finding significant results with a smallish sample tho, yeah?

The study you cited references people who are overweight or obese, specifically, as possibly benefiting from metformin.

They might have used regression without stating the supervisors.
