Blood pressure typically decreases 4-6 mmHg with GLP-1 treatment
GLP-1 regulates appetite and blood sugar by slowing gastric emptying so food stays in your stomach longer, signaling your brain to reduce hunger, improving insulin sensitivity, and reducing glucagon, which raises blood sugar
Not medical advice.* How to Flatten the Spike Eating protein before carbohydrates significantly reduces postprandial glucose spikes, a strategy that complements GLP-1 medication: Eat protein first - Start with chicken, fish, or eggs before touching carbs Add fiber-rich vegetables - Broccoli, spinach, and asparagus slow glucose absorption Include healthy fats - Avocado or olive oil further blunts the glucose curve Add acidic components - Lemon juice or vinegar with meals lowers glycemic response This protein-first eating order is especially effective for GLP-1 users managing both weight and blood sugar
