Unsurprisingly, stress levels can also influence hormones that affect your eating habits, metabolism, and weight

While the evidence is not yet definitive, some researchers suggest that long-term exposure to GLP-1 drugs could potentially influence the activity of the guts L-cells the cells responsible for producing natural GLP-1 and related hormones such as GLP-2, which helps maintain the integrity of the intestinal lining

Dopamine regulation and brain mechanisms One of the most significant findings across studies is the influence of GLP-1 receptor agonists on dopamine regulation

In the subgroup analysis, although no significant differences were observed among the subgroups based on different baseline weight, control groups, and indications, significant weight regain was observed in each subgroup compared with the control group, that is, the weight regain after treatment discontinuation was consistent in obese patients with different characteristics
