FAQs
How do GLP-1 medications work?
GLP-1 medications are also known as GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), which imitate the natural GLP-1 hormone, responsible for regulating our blood sugar levels, insulin, and hunger. GLP-1 RAs work by reducing the amount of glucose delivered into the bloodstream, encouraging more insulin production from your pancreas. They also act on the digestive system to delay gastric emptying, delaying the release of food from the stomach and modulating brain activity to suppress appetite.
