GLP-1 is a prescription medication that is prescribed for weight loss and Type 2 Diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. It mimics the action of GLP-1, a hormone that stimulates the release of insulin and reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver. This helps lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. 

GLP-1 also reduces the speed at which food passes through the digestive system. It prolongs digestion, helping to maintain your feeling of fullness for a longer period. Therefore, when you take GLP-1 injections, you feel fuller faster and are less likely to overeat.

One of the key benefits of GLP-1 is its ability to suppress appetite, helping you feel fuller for longer and reducing cravings for unhealthy foods. By curbing your appetite, GLP-1 makes it easier to stick to your dietary goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

GLP-1 also plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels. By enhancing insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver, GLP-1 helps keep blood sugar levels stable, which is essential for overall health and well-being.
