Description

Increasing insulin resistance is associated with a decrease in Leydig cell testosterone secretion in men

When it's functioning well, it helps steady energy, reduce overeating, and support metabolic health

GLP-1's roles in the body include: Stimulating insulin secretion from the pancreas in a glucose-dependent manner Suppressing glucagon (which otherwise drives the liver to release stored glucose) Slowing gastric emptying, which prolongs feelings of fullness Signaling satiety centers in the brain to reduce appetite Supporting healthy blood glucose levels already in the normal range GLP-1's challenge is that it has a very short half-life in the bloodstream (typically just 2 minutes) before an enzyme called DPP-4 breaks it down
