High-fibre foods such as oats, beans, lentils, and Brussels sprouts, protein-rich sources like fish, eggs, and Greek yoghurt, and healthy fats from avocados, nuts, and olive oil all stimulate natural GLP-1 secretion from intestinal L-cells
These factors are produced by selective posttranslational modification of proglucagon , a 160-residue peptide expressed by the -cells of the pancreas, K and L cells of the small intestine
