GLP-1R agonists consistently cause a reduction in muscle mass (usually measured as lean mass or fat-free mass) as part of their overall weight-loss effect

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) such as butyrate, a bacterial metabolite produced from dietary fibre, can directly trigger GLP-1 release by binding to the membrane receptor GPR43 (65)
