What Is Medical Weight Loss?

GLP-1 and GLP-2 are medications that fall into the category of receptor agonists. They mimic the hormones humans produce naturally. They help regulate blood sugar levels and promote weight loss by encouraging your body to burn fat.

How Do They Work on Your Body?

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) primarily helps with blood sugar control, weight loss, and metabolism.

Helps your pancreas release insulin when your blood sugar is high.
Lowers the amount of sugar your liver releases.
Slows stomach emptying, helping you feel full longer.
Reduces appetite and food cravings, which can support weight loss.
May also improve heart health and reduce inflammation in some people.

GLP-2 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-2) mainly helps with gut health, intestinal healing, and nutrient absorption.

Helps repair and strengthen the lining of the intestines.
Improves the absorption of nutrients and fluids from food.
Supports gut healing and reduces inflammation in the intestines.
Helps maintain a healthy digestive tract and overall gut function.

These peptides prompt the body to store sugar in your fat cells. This means that instead of using sugar for energy immediately, your body saves it in your fat cells. When your body needs energy later, it turns to those fat cells, effectively promoting fat burning.
