In the previous episode, we spoke about Neuropeptide Y. Here, we will be talking about GLP-1.
#7 Glucagon Like Peptide – 1 (GLP-1)
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone produced in your gut when nutrients enter the intestines.Researchers believe the decrease in appetite that occurs immediately after weight loss surgery is partly due to increased production of GLP-1.
In one study, men who were given a GLP-1 solution with breakfast reported feeling more satisfied and ended up eating 12% fewer calories at lunch.
Steps to increase GLP-1 are as follows :
#1 Eat plenty of protein
#2 Eat anti-inflammatory food
#3 Eat leafy greens
#4 Have probiotics
