Micronutrient Risks Linked to GLP-1 and Dual Incretin Treatments for Obesity: Underlying Causes, Clinical Signs, and Monitoring Guidelines

Updated

Abstract

Incretin-based pharmacotherapies may lead to substantial weight loss through appetite suppression and reduced energy intake.

  • Weight loss is associated with mechanisms such as appetite suppression and gastrointestinal effects.
  • These therapies could modify dietary intake and gastrointestinal physiology.
  • Long-term treatment raises concerns regarding potential micronutrient disturbances.
  • Metabolic adaptations related to weight loss may also be affected by these pharmacotherapies.
