PlexusDx also integrates genetic testing to personalize your specific compound selectionsemaglutide, tirzepatide, or the GLP-Squared dual formulation

Synergy with GLP-1 : When combined, GIP and GLP-1 amplify weight loss, insulin sensitivity, and glucose control better than GLP-1 alone

The results of these experiments demonstrate that in spite of the role of mTORC1 in the control of energy metabolism, as evidenced by a significant reduction of overall glucose consumption and uptake following Rapamycin treatment

Palmer SC, Tendal B, Mustafa RA et al (2021) Sodiumglucose cotransporter protein-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists for type 2 diabetes: systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials

Blood pressure typically decreases with both peptides, likely due to weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity rather than direct vascular effects

In addition, tirzepatide, even at the lowest maintenance dose of 5 mg, can reduce body weight to a greater extent compared with GLP-1 RAs including subcutaneous semaglutide which, in turn, has been shown to be superior to other glucose-lowering agents [28]
