Together, our results thus support the existence of a OB AON LH PVN circuit (Supplementary Fig
Researchers optimizing their protocols should track: Body composition: Use DEXA scans, bioimpedance devices, or at minimum waist/hip measurements to distinguish fat loss from lean mass loss Resting heart rate: Particularly important with retatrutide due to the glucagon-mediated heart rate increase Blood pressure: Both peptides lower blood pressure, which is beneficial but can cause dizziness if the drop is too rapid Fasting blood glucose: Especially relevant for those managing pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes Liver enzymes: For anyone with suspected or confirmed fatty liver disease Energy levels and sleep quality: Subjective but important indicators of protocol tolerance The GLP-1 progress tracking tools available through SeekPeptides help members monitor these metrics systematically rather than relying on memory or sporadic tracking

While there are some case studies of patients experiencing pain after eating when taking a GLP-1, these are rare
5 days/week) Frequency: Once daily, 5 days per week , progressing from 1.0 mg to 1.5 mg and then 2.0 mg as shown above
These symptoms can lead to dehydration and electrolyte depletion, particularly in vulnerable individuals
