#Hormones101

#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
