During my at-home testing, I asked him to roll around and sit on the edge of the bed at varying intensities
As a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA), tirzepatide produces synergistic effects like increased insulin production and release, which gives it an edge over strict GLP-1 receptor agonist such as semaglutide (Ozempic)
