The Nutristore Take
GLP-1 directly activates POMC/CART neurons and indirectly inhibits, via GABAergic transmission, the neuropeptide Y/agouti-related peptide (NPY/AgRP) neurons, which collectively results in signals that reduce food intake
Cocaine and amphetamines (stimulants) All animal studies retrieved for stimulants misuse involved exendin-4 among GLP-1RAs and highlighted a reduction of cocaine and amphetamines intake and end effects (for example, increased locomotor activity) via modulation of dopaminergic transmission in areas including the nucleus accumbens and the ventral tegmental area 91,92,93,94,96,97,98,99,100,101,102,103,105 , as well as modulation of inflammatory mechanisms 104
They also support a brighter, healthier-looking complexion while helping maintain skin firmness over time
Might the appetite-suppressing hormone GLP-1 have anything to do with that
