GLP1s lower inflammation, Psoriasis, AND increase fertility?
We look into the anti-inflammatory effects of GLP1s and their effects on issues like psoriasis and infertility.
While being one of the most tested type 2 diabetes and weight loss solutions, GLP1s are not yet fully understood – understanding of how GLP1 Receptor Agonists work has shifted from being gut-based to brain-based and research is still underway.

One of the best things about GLP1 drugs (Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, Zepbound, and others) is that because of how well they have been studies, there are many research trials with large cohorts (participants) and a wide group of people that are actually taking them in the real world.
If GLP1s were likely to severely hurt or kill people within the first year or five years of taking it, we'd know already (and the drugs would have been pulled).
We can't derive any truths about what GLP1s might do after taking them for 15 or 30 years, but for now, they're known to be incredibly safe for how effective they can be (and when we find risks or negative side effects, or meaningful differences between medications, we report them!).
Today, we're focusing on another positive benefit of GLP1s – reducing inflammation.
