Moderate-intensity exercise appears particularly effective, with studies showing increased GLP-1 secretion in people with type 2 diabetes following exercise interventions
Breaking down the data To illustrate how orforglipron fits within the landscape of current and emerging therapies, the following table highlights key endpoints from separate trials

Real-world data tells a different story Interestingly, real-world outcomes look somewhat better than clinical trial results

GLP-1related hair loss is usually reversible
