Weight loss with Tirzepatide:
Tirzepatide aids in weight loss primarily through its action on two gut hormones, GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). These hormones play key roles in regulating appetite and food intake:
1. Appetite Suppression: GLP-1 is known to suppress appetite. By mimicking the action of GLP-1, tirzepatide helps reduce hunger, leading to a decrease in caloric intake.
2. Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Both GLP-1 and GIP enhance insulin secretion, which helps lower blood sugar levels. Improved insulin sensitivity can lead to reduced fat storage in the body.
3. Slowing Gastric Emptying: GLP-1 slows down the rate at which food leaves the stomach, leading to a prolonged feeling of fullness and reduced food intake.
4. Potential Effects on Metabolism**: While the primary mechanisms involve appetite control and insulin sensitivity, there may be additional effects on metabolism, though these are not as well understood.
