How to Naturally increase your GLP-1 Hormone Finally, I do want to touch on the many ways to increase your natural GLP-1 hormone: Eating protein-rich foods : protein is the most satiating macro because it has the highest effect on your GLP-1 levels Eating fat-rich foods like olive oil, avocado, nuts, fatty fish can boost GLP-1 levels Eating probiotic-rich foods or taking a probiotic supplement: improve gut microbiota which trigger GLP-1 secretion Eating fiber-rich foods like vegetables, legumes, and whole grains: your gut bacteria break down fiber in your gut which then triggers the release of GLP-1 into your bloodstream
GLP-1 medications may be appropriate for adults with: BMI 30 kg/m BMI 27 kg/m with obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, or fatty liver disease Difficulty losing weight despite lifestyle changes Treatment suitability should always be determined by an endocrinologist after a comprehensive evaluation
