What Is GLP-1

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is a naturally occurring hormone in the body that plays an essential role in managing blood sugar levels, appetite, and insulin secretion. Released by the intestines in response to food intake—especially carbohydrates and fats—GLP-1 is a key player in regulating how your body processes energy.

In recent years, GLP-1 has emerged as a powerful tool in weight management and metabolic health. By targeting the root causes of weight gain and obesity,

GLP-1-based treatments provide a groundbreaking, science-backed solution for individuals struggling with excess weight or metabolic disorders.

How GLP-1 Works

The Science Behind GLP-1 Medications

Slows Gastric Emptying

GLP-1 slows the emptying of the stomach after eating. By doing so, it prolongs the feeling of fullness and reduces the desire to eat more frequently or in larger portions.

Increases Energy Expenditure

Emerging research suggests that GLP-1 may also increase energy expenditure, meaning that the body may burn more calories at rest.

Appetite Regulation

GLP-1 acts on the brain, particularly areas involved in hunger and satiety, to help reduce appetite. It enhances feelings of fullness (satiety) and reduces hunger, which helps people consume fewer calories.

Improves Insulin Secretion​

GLP-1 stimulates insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, meaning it helps the pancreas release insulin when blood sugar levels are high (such as after eating), and it inhibits the release of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar.
