Most popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/how-much-weight-can-you-lose-in-a-month\/\">weight loss<\/a> medications work by boosting GLP-1 levels to help curb appetite and promote fullness. But you can also support GLP-1 without medications through your diet, especially by adding more high <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/why-do-we-need-protein\/\">protein<\/a> meals to your diet. Protein helps you feel satisfied longer, supports metabolism, and aids in building lean muscle\u2014making it an important nutrient to prioritize for weight loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Ahead, you&#8217;ll learn what GLP-1 is, what GLP-1 RAs are, and how to boost GLP-1 naturally. Here\u2019s what to know about GLP-1 and the benefits of protein, with some easy, high-protein meals to try.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-glp-1\">What is GLP-1?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>GLP-1 is short for glucagon-like peptide-1. It\u2019s a hormone that is released by the intestines when you eat. Many people associate GLP-1 with weight loss. However, it plays several key functions in response to food intake.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Once released into the bloodstream, GLP-1 helps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Boost the release of insulin to help manage blood sugar levels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduce the production of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slow down <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/how-digestion-works\/\">digestion<\/a> by delaying how quickly food leaves the stomach, promoting feelings of fullness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-about-glp-1-medications\">What about GLP-1 medications?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Popular weight loss medications like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/life-after-ozempic\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">Ozempic<\/a> and Semaglutide are classified as GLP-1 RAs, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK551568\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GLP-1 receptor antagonists<\/a>. They promote the release of GLP-1 to levels about 10x higher than what the body normally produces.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Historically, GLP-1 RAs are prescribed to individuals who have a <a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jcem\/article-abstract\/86\/8\/3717\/2848871?redirectedFrom=fulltext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">poor GLP-1 response<\/a> or to people who would benefit from lowering their blood sugar levels like those living with <a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/druginfo\/meds\/a618008.html\">Type 2 Diabetes<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Overtime, the appetite-curbing benefits from boosting GLP-1 levels have made these types of medications increasingly popular with people who are non-diabetic but want to shed extra pounds. As such, GLP-1 RAs are now commonly prescribed for <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/35194917\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weight loss<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>But because GLP-1 meds only work for as long as you take them, there continues to be a growing interest in finding other ways to naturally boost GLP-1 levels.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-boosting-glp-1-naturally\">Boosting GLP-1 Naturally<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Among the many benefits of eating a balanced diet, influencing the release of GLP-1 is a noteworthy one.
