Retatrutide 20 mg

Main mechanism of Retatrutide has 3 parts

1️⃣ Activates the GLP-1 receptor

Helps you feel full faster

Reduces appetite

Slows gastric emptying

2️⃣ Activates the GIP receptor

Helps the body use energy from food more efficiently

Helps control blood sugar after meals

Energy is less likely to be stored as fat

3️⃣ Activates the Glucagon receptor

Increases energy expenditure

Stimulates fat breakdown in the liver and stored fat, making the body burn more fat

Summary

Reduces hunger

Makes you feel full faster

Increases metabolism

Encourages the body to use fat as energy

Effect: works in two ways at the same time — eat less + burn more

Comparison of the 3 medications

Semaglutide → works on GLP-1 only

Tirzepatide → GLP-1 + GIP

Retatrutide → GLP-1 + GIP + Glucagon (three mechanisms)

How it works in the body

1️⃣ Brain → receives fullness signals faster

2️⃣ Stomach → digestion slows down, hunger comes later

3️⃣ Liver + fat tissue → energy expenditure increases and fat burning rises
