Infant Feeding and GLP-1: What You Need to Know
The Basics of GLP-1
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating appetite, blood sugar levels, and metabolism. GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as semaglutide and liraglutide, are medications that mimic the action of GLP-1 and are used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. These medications work by slowing down stomach emptying, reducing appetite, and improving insulin sensitivity.GLP-1 and Breastfeeding: The Safety Concerns
