How Biocare Helps with GLP-1 Bloating*

GLP-1 medications are known to delay gastric emptying as part of their mechanism of action. This slower movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine helps control blood sugar levels and promotes satiety. However, it can also lead to side effects like bloating.

Biocare beverages include digestive enzymes, Glycyrrhiza glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, and Zinc L-Carnosine — a unique form of zinc — along with prebiotic fiber and digestively stable probiotics. These ingredients help alleviate gastrointestinal side effects*, including bloating and constipation, that are associated with taking GLP-1 medications.
