This question is about GLP-1 & Weight Loss

Sarah Achleithner

Some GLP-1 side effects include nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea; however, these symptoms can vary depending on the person. 

These GLP-1 side effects are most often seen in those taking medications, so another option is to consider a GLP-1 natural alternative. These natural alternatives include supplements like

curcumin

,

magnesium

,

vitamin B12

, and

berberine

, as they may help regulate blood sugar levels, slow gastric emptying, and promote feelings of fullness [
