Some peptides are used for weight loss which include different growth hormone secretagogues and receptor agonists that enhance the metabolism of food and nutrients in the body. Other peptides, know as GLP-1 agonists, activate glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor, increasing insulin secretion, decreasing glucagon secretion, and delaying gastric emptying known as an (incretin mimetic.) The most popular GLP-1 agonist presently is semaglutide.

Given the popularity of semaglutide, the branded product is known as Wegovy, if you are interested in starting semaglutide and if you are an adult seeking weight loss, you can schedule a visit for weight loss at Biorestoration Medical.
