Originally a software engineer, she built Shotsy to address the lack of tools for logging injections, side effects, and progress while using GLP-1 medications
Notably, also the proportion of GCG expressing cells among EECs was reduced, indicating GLP-1- producing L cells to be particularly affected by inflammation ( Figure 1L,M )
Why are these patients most at risk
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, like Ozempic, mimic a gut hormone that regulates appetite and glucose metabolism, promoting significant weight loss and diabetes management
A GLP-1 agonist administered during this window helps counteract the cortisol-driven glucose rise, potentially offering tighter glycemic control through the most metabolically active part of your day
