A completely safe, new class of therapeutics  for
diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, NAFLD, and weight management.

Over 1 Billion people are affected by diabetes and obesity, globally.
The World Health Organization now call diabetes and obesity a global epidemic. Existing therapies have failed to contain the growth of these diseases.

90 Million Metformin prescriptions are written in the US annually.
Metformin is the only first-line treatment for diabetes, yet it is not well-tolerated by a large portion of diabetics, and essentially only delays the progression of diabetes.
