The rationale behind the formulation addresses three specific challenges that patients encounter during GLP-1 therapy: the appetite suppression and metabolic benefits of semaglutide, the muscle-preserving properties of glycine during rapid weight loss, and the nausea-reducing potential of B12 conjugation with GLP-1 receptor agonists

Curiously, some bariatric RYGB patients experience up to a 10-fold increase in post-meal active GLP-1 plasmatic levels (from fasting 5 pM to post-prandial 3065 pM) (146), and have a 2- to 3-fold higher glucose-stimulated Insulin secretion (147), which in some diabetic patients results in GLP-1-mediated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia that requires GLP-1 antagonism or surgical reversal of the intestinal anatomy (148)

Exendin-(9-39) given as an intravenous infusion to adult individuals with post-prandial hypoglycemia after gastric bypass surgery led to a blunted insulin response, suggesting that GLP-1 is responsible for the exaggerated insulin secretion in dumping syndrome (46)
