Additionally, GLP-1 medications are also helpful in managing certain gastrointestinal diseases such as celiac disease, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including Crohns disease and ulcerative colitis (UC), and intestinal mucositis

Having barley kernels at an evening meal not only increased GLP-1 the next day, boosting blood levels by 43 percent at breakfast, but feelings of hunger decreased during that entire next day, and the research participants ate about 100 fewer calories of an all-you-can-eat lunch, just because they had had some barley groats 14 hours before
Summary Together, these findings demonstrate that elevated glucose results in actin polymerization that impedes both phases of biphasic insulin secretion, and that GLP-1 can restore glucose sensitivity and promote insulin release by correcting errors in actin dynamics at both phases
