Discover how a natural sugar called allulose is getting attention for potentially offering similar metabolic benefits as modern weight loss drugs by stimulating GLP-1. 

Learn the science behind how this unique compound affects blood sugar, appetite, and fat loss through natural pathways.

Main Takeaways:

• Allulose stimulates GLP-1 more modestly than medications, working with natural body rhythms
• Research shows up to 50% reduction in post-meal blood sugar spikes
• Practical dosing starts at 5-10g per serving, best taken with meals
• May help with transitioning off GLP-1 medications while maintaining results
• Shows promise for preserving muscle glycogen during training
