Good morning!
Let’s clear this up:
GLP-1 meds aren’t magic.
They’re not “starving you.”
They’re not “shutting your metabolism down.”
They’re literally copying hormones your own body should be making… but isn’t doing a great job at anymore.
Incretins = GLP-1 + GIP
Aka:
The gut hormones that keep your metabolism from acting like a toddler in the cereal aisle.
Here’s what they do (and they’ve been doing it long before TikTok discovered the “tide injections”):
1) Tell your pancreas to release insulin when you eat
2) Tell your liver to stop dumping sugar like it’s trying to sabotage you
3) Slow digestion so you’re not hungry every 6 minutes
4) Keep cravings from running your life
So when someone says:
“ThEsE mEdS aRe UnNaTuRaL”
Please remind them the only unnatural thing here is the blood sugar rollercoaster they’ve been ignoring for the last decade.
Your body isn’t being tricked.
It’s being corrected.
Let’s talk about it. (Link in the comments)
