Do prebiotic foods affect GLP-1 levels?

This question is about GLP-1 & Weight Loss

Sarah Achleithner

Research shows that prebiotic foods affect GLP-1 levels, as they support gut health, reduce blood glucose levels, and mitigate insulin resistance [

]. 

Some prebiotic foods include:

  • Oats

  • Bananas

  • Barley

  • Garlic

  • Legumes

  • Potatoes

You can also support gut health with

probiotic gummy vitamins like Elo Smart Gummies

. However, these gummies are not a substitute for healthy eating habits and regular physical activity. If you’re looking to lose weight, talk with your healthcare provider to find the best solutions for your needs.
