endogenous glp 1 production Schematic representation of of GLP-1: Production of Endogenous Activation of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1
Description
Major kudos to Chad Janis and the entire Grns team
These drugs work by mimicking a gut hormone that slows digestion and reduces appetite, leading to significant weight loss in many patients
The incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is released from intestinal L-cells following food ingestion
The benefit may not depend entirely on how much weight patients lose.
Understanding what causes it and how to manage symptoms helps many people successfully continue treatment
