One review of 3 studies in 151 people with IBS, some of whom experienced constipation, found that aloe vera drinks and tablets of aloe extract significantly improved their IBS symptoms, compared with a placebo ( The review authors also noted that aloe vera was safe for the short-term treatment of IBS
Research studies have demonstrated reductions in body weight gain and increased lipolytic activity in adipose tissue
Future research should also explore long-term effects and potential interactions with conventional therapies to establish their broader clinical relevance

GLP-1 neuronal circuits in hypothalamic appetite regulation and food reward processing Metabolic surgery pharmacology : Studying whether pharmacological dual incretin agonism can replicate the hormonal changes and metabolic benefits of bariatric surgery Cardiovascular research : Elucidating mechanisms of cardiovascular risk reduction via combined GIP/GLP-1 receptor activation NASH/MAFLD research : Exploring effects on hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis (SYNERGY-NASH trial ongoing) Peptide engineering : Studying multi-target receptor agonism as a design paradigm how to engineer selectivity ratios across receptor families Comparative pharmacology : Benchmarking dual (GIP/GLP-1) vs
Common Drug Interactions with GLP-1s Prescriptions to monitor include: Thyroid meds (like levothyroxine): delayed absorption = wonky labs Oral birth control : less reliable if not absorbed well (oops!) SSRIs/SNRIs : altered absorption can lead to mood changes Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) : need bile flow and good digestion Iron/B12 : absorption requires stomach acid, which may be reduced PPIs (Prilosec, Nexium) : when combined with GLP-1s, can severely limit nutrient uptake Over-the-Counter Medications to Watch Even common OTC meds can cause problems when combined with GLP-1s
