Semaglutide, derived from the naturally occurring GLP-1 peptide, is renowned for its ability to lower blood sugar levels and enhance insulin secretion. Emerging research indicates that Semaglutide may not only improve heart, liver, and lung function but also potentially mitigate or prevent the effects of Alzheimer’s disease. Furthermore, Semaglutide has demonstrated a substantial reduction in appetite by delaying gastric emptying and decreasing intestinal motility. This GLP-1 analog has proven efficacy in stimulating insulin and suppressing glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner.
