GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate:
Blood sugar levels (by stimulating insulin release when glucose is high).
Appetite (by making you feel full longer).
Digestion (by slowing stomach emptying).
GLP-1 therapy uses synthetic versions of this hormone (given as injections) to help treat:
Type 2 Diabetes – Improves blood sugar control.
Obesity/Weight Management – Reduces hunger and calorie intake.
Lowers blood sugar → Tells the pancreas to release insulin when needed.
Reduces appetite → Acts on the brain to increase fullness.
Slows digestion → Helps you eat less by making meals last longer in the stomach.
