[ALERT] Popular Diabetes Drug Contains Cancer Agent?!

By this point, telling you Big Pharma has put you in danger is like telling you the sky is blue or rain is wet.
But here we are, with yet another recall… and this time, it’s a BIG one.
Because it involves the fourth-most commonly prescribed in America… and you’re probably already taking it.
But don’t worry.
I’m going to tell you all about it and what to do next.
I’m talking about metformin.
And if you’re one of the millions of seniors taking the drugs… you need to pay attention.
The US Food and Drug Administration is investigating supplies of metformin from Singapore that contain a chemical called NDMA (N-Nitrosodimethylamine).
NDMA was once used as liquid rocket fuel and is used as a lubricant in manufacturing. It’s EXTREMELY toxic to the liver and has been known to cause cancer. There’s no recall at this time.
But that doesn’t mean you’re safe.
You see, this is not the first time NDMA has been found in Big Pharma’s dangerous drugs. Earlier in the year, the popular acid blocker Zantac was also found to be contaminated with the poison.
A lot of these medications are manufactured in Asia, where environmental safety standards are much lower.
I suspect this keeps happening because manufacturers are using higher amounts of NDMA as a lubricant for machinery, and it’s seeping into the formula.
Meanwhile here in America, both doctors and the FDA are urging patients to continue to use the medication because of the health dangers caused by diabetes.
But they are only giving you two choices: take the drug and get cancer OR don’t take the drug be stuck with diabetes!
Why not drop your risk for cancer and diabetes at the same time by eating a low-carb diet, getting some exercise, and taking supplements that help control high blood sugar, like berberine, curcumin, or chromium.
Just make sure to speak with your doctor before quitting your medication or starting a new supplement regimen. Quitting diabetes drugs quickly can cause side effects, including dangerous spikes in blood sugar.
