GLP1

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is a natural hormone in the body that helps regulate blood sugar levels, appetite, and digestion. It works by increasing insulin release after meals, slowing stomach emptying, and reducing hunger.

GLP-1–based medications (also known as GLP-1 receptor agonists) are often used to support weight management and type 2 diabetes treatment. By mimicking the body’s natural GLP-1, these treatments can help lower blood sugar, promote a feeling of fullness, and support sustainable weight loss.
