That's not quite right. The first GLP-1 was a synthetic form of a hormone found in Gila monster spit. Humans have very similar hormones so not a huge leap
prone to give you cancer in the long run
This is only correct if you are a mouse and you take massive doses... as in doses well over any doses we actually give patients. Used in humans widely for over 15 years with monitoring in place and no documented human cases of cancer.
In addition to weight loss and improved glucose control, several of the medications in this class have been shown to decrease the chance of the patient having a heart attack, stroke, dying from a cardiovascular event, and even death from any cause. All important as cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death of people with type 2 diabetes. Also early evidence that they may help in fatty liver disease and even chronic kidney disease.
If it makes you sick to your stomach - eat smaller portions and eat slowly. The medication slows gastric emptying - meaning your stomach fills up faster and with less food.
