Interested in natural GLP-1 options? We can help you with that!

First, what IS a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1) is a naturally occurring hormone that helps regulate appetite, blood sugar, digestion and food cravings. It is primarily made in the small intestines after eating. Many of our supplements target the GLP-1 pathway to support your weight loss goals without pharmaceutical side effects.

Here are some details on some of the ingredients you may see and why they are there:
✴️Akkermansia Muciniphila: healthy gut lining, production of propionate and P9 protein
✴️Bifidobacterium Infantis: produces acetate and lactate which aids in GLP1 production
✴️Yerba Mate: contains caffeine, aids in fat metabolism and may act as an appetite suppressant
✴️Panax Ginseng: may help regulate appetite, fat & glucose metabolism, energy
✴️Chicory Inulin: prebiotic, may help with fullness feeling, decrease fat absorption, lower cholesterol and blood sugar
✴️Berberine: promotes AMPK for fat & glucose metabolism
✴️Green Tea Extract: may increase metabolism, fat burning, prevents fat storage, contains caffeine
✴️Cinnamon: may help decrease cravings/overeating, blood sugar, fat metabolism and cholesterol
✴️Banaba leaf extract: may help blood sugar levels, appt suppressant & decrease fat cell formation
✴️OEA: activates PPAR-alpha receptors to influence appetite satiety
✴️Leptin: signals the brain when you’ve had enough food
✴️Cholecystokinin(CKK): improves satiety
✴️Chromium: in addition to its effects on glucose, insulin and lipid metabolism, it has been reported (National Institutes of Health 1998) to increase lean body mass and decrease body fat percentages
✴️Blood Orange extract: may decrease body fat stores and aids in metabolism
✴️Guarana extract: fat-burning, promote regularity, help with energy/focus, contains caffeine

Hydrogen peroxide is produced in the bodyin different amounts for different purposes. It is part of system which helps you use the oxygen you breathe. It is part of a system which helps your body regulate all living cell membranes. It is a hormonal regulator, necessary for your body to produce several hormonal substances such as estrogen, progesterone and thyroid. It is an important regulator of blood sugar, production of energy in all cells and it helps regulate certain chemical necessary to operate the brain and nervous system. Scientists are discovering the function of hydrogen peroxide in the body is far more complex and important than previously realized. ⁣
