Herbal GLP-1 booster shows promise for weight loss and blood sugar in small trial
NCT ID NCT07141472
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This completed study tested a dietary supplement called GLP-1 Booster in 69 overweight adults over 26 weeks. The supplement contains extracts from green tea, gardenia, turmeric, and other herbs, and is designed to increase the body's own GLP-1 hormone to help control blood sugar, reduce appetite, and promote fat loss. Researchers measured changes in blood sugar, insulin, body weight, and body fat compared to a placebo.
