Gastrointestinal issues: Many GLP-1 supplements contain high amounts of fiber or other compounds that, especially when introduced suddenly or in large doses, can cause gastrointestinal discomfort, such as bloating, gas, and digestive upset
Recovery and Tissue Repair Applications Beyond muscle building, IGF-1 DES has been investigated for localized tissue repair including accelerated healing of muscle injuries, potential benefits for tendon/ligament repair through collagen synthesis, enhanced recovery from localized trauma, and possible applications in wound healing
283285 Interestingly, in mice, it was shown that GLP-1 secretion is increased during exercise and that overexpression of GLP-1 in mouse skeletal muscle enhanced endurance and glycogen synthesis
Some research also notes changes in carnitine metabolism and reduced ketosis during fasting in obese cats (Blanchard G, 2002)
