What is your natural GLP-1 hormone?
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is a hormone your body naturally makes in your gut every time you eat. Its job is to help regulate blood sugar, appetite, digestion, and metabolism. Think of it as one of your body’s built-in “balance hormones.”
When GLP-1 is working well, it:
• Helps you feel full and satisfied after meals
• Slows digestion so blood sugar stays steady
• Signals your pancreas to release insulin appropriately
• Reduces cravings and mindless snacking
• Supports healthy weight regulation and metabolic health
Why is GLP-1 so often out of balance?
In today’s world, many women struggle to produce or respond to GLP-1 properly, not because their bodies are broken, but because their systems are overwhelmed.
Common reasons GLP-1 gets disrupted include:
• Chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation
• Blood sugar spikes from ultra-processed foods
• Gut inflammation, poor digestion, or dysbiosis
• Insulin resistance
• Poor sleep and circadian rhythm disruption
• Long-term dieting or under-eating
• Hormonal imbalances (especially cortisol and estrogen)
When GLP-1 is low or your body becomes resistant to it, you may notice:
• Constant hunger or never feeling satisfied
• Strong sugar or carb cravings
• Energy crashes
• Difficulty losing weight despite “doing everything right”
• Feeling out of control around food
The good news
Your body wants to make GLP-1. With the right support (nervous system regulation, blood sugar balance, gut healing, proper nourishment, sleep, and lifestyle alignment). GLP-1 production and sensitivity can improve naturally.
This is why we focus on root-cause healing, not just appetite suppression. When the body feels safe, nourished, and regulated, hormones like GLP-1 can finally do what they were designed to do ✨
