Incretins are gut hormones, mainly GLP-1 and GIP, released after eating to help coordinate the body’s response to nutrients. Research explains that they support glucose-dependent insulin secretion and interact with brain regions involved in satiety, which is why this class of compounds is designed to mimic or amplify their action. Understanding the incretin system helps clarify why different molecules target one, two, or three of these receptor pathways. This is general information, not medical advice; these compounds are prescription or research-only and are not approved for self-use in most countries. Do not source prescription drugs on this forum.

Wish I had found this thread sooner.
Thanks, the guide linked above answered the rest.
