Tirzepatide is a medication primarily used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and for weight management. It functions as a dual agonist, targeting both GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors in the body.
Tirzepatide helps manage blood sugar levels and reduce appetite through the following actions:
Increases Insulin Secretion: It stimulates the pancreas to release insulin when blood sugar levels are high.
Decreases Glucagon Release: It reduces the amount of glucagon, a hormone that increases blood sugar levels.
Slows Gastric Emptying: This action helps prolong feelings of fullness, which can aid in weight loss.
w/L-Carnitine
Carnitine is a quaternary ammonium compound involved in metabolism in most mammals, plants, and some bacteria. In support of energy metabolism, carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids from the cytosol into mitochondria to be oxidized for free energy production, and also participates in removing products of metabolism from cells. Given its key metabolic roles, carnitine is concentrated in tissues like skeletal and cardiac muscle that metabolize fatty acids as an energy source
