Retatrutide
What is Retatrutide?
Retatrutide is a triple agonist (GLP-1, GIP, and Glucagon) known as the "King" of metabolic peptides. It engages three distinct receptor pathways for maximum fat burning and metabolic control.
Mechanism of Action
Activates GLP-1 (appetite), GIP (metabolism/insulin), and Glucagon (energy expenditure/liver fat). The addition of Glucagon agonism significantly increases resting energy expenditure.
