So it looks like GLP-1 may have positive side-effects beyond what can be explained as consequences of weight loss. Surprising linkages between biochemistry/hormones and temperament.
I am slowly (1 kilogram per month) losing weight by eating nothing but meat 2-3 days per week. My understanding is that the extra GLP-1 secreted by the gut when digesting lots of protein leads to appetite suppression. It works, and is surprisingly easy to do (no feelings of hunger).
So will I also be getting the beneficial side effects of GLP-1? If so, high-protein dieting becomes the smart way to lose weight.
