Initial clinical evidence suggests that GLP-1s may help in three key areas: 1
Pro-resolving mediators are also involved, not only in the active termination of the inflammatory response, but in the activation of the repair mechanisms and wound healing (139141)
Over 100 published preclinical studies document its biological activity
In isolated rat islets, GLP-1 acts as a growth factor in a dose-dependent manner to increase the incorporation of tritiated thymidine and promotes cell proliferation through the upregulation of PI3K-mediated pathways (Sjholm, 1996
Practical Application Omega-3 rich fish: Salmon, mackerel, sardines, anchovies Monounsaturated fats: Extra virgin olive oil, avocados, almonds Plant-based omega-3s: Flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts Medium-chain triglycerides: Coconut oil (moderate amounts) Include healthy fats in each meal (10-15 grams per meal) Pair fats with protein and fiber for sustained L-cell activation Avoid excessive saturated fat which may impair L-cell function Strategy 5: Meal Composition and Sequencing The Science: L-cells dont just respond to individual nutrientsthey respond to the pattern, sequence, and combination in which nutrients arrive
