The beneficial effects of GLP-1 receptor activation on glycemia occur through several mechanisms: GLP-1 stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic -cells, suppresses inappropriately elevated glucagon secretion from pancreatic -cells, delays gastric emptying, and induces satiety via a direct action in the central nervous system
For instance, MC-1R appears linked to pigmentation, MC-2R to adrenal activity, MC-3R to metabolic regulation, and MC-5R to exocrine functions such as sweating and sebum production
Meanwhile, another study in The New England Journal of Medicine shows just 33% of the dose of one popular GLP-1 drove 72% of the weight loss at week 72 with a low side effect profile
Recommended daily dosage: 600 to 2,500 mg
