It also reduces glucagon production, a hormone that promotes glucose release from the liver, and slows gastric emptying, contributing to a feeling of satiety

Emerging data supports GLP-1s cardiovascular benefits, outweighing risks for most, but shared decision-making is key

Unlike prescription GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes, Zepbound for obesity)which is actually a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonistthese probiotic formulations contain specific bacterial strains, most commonly Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species, that manufacturers claim may stimulate endogenous GLP-1 secretion from intestinal L-cells

8 When GLP-1 receptors are activated, they promote insulin release and decrease glucagon secretion in response to glucose levels
