Understanding Ozempic and Its Common Side Effects Ozempic contains semaglutide, a long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist administered once weekly via subcutaneous injection
The powder, which is launching online, can be added seamlessly to foods and beverages to "fuel the gut, digestion and health from the inside out." The doctor-formulated blend of plant-based fibres and polyphenols is purported to aid digestion and improve regularity, as well as to help to feed healthy bacteria in the gut microbiome, which Pendulum claims "supports the body's natural GLP-1 signalling pathways." Ingredients such as resistant potato starch, baobab, acacia, oat beta-glucan and grape seed extract provide the six grams of fibre per serving, helping to maintain healthy blood sugar levels and metabolic function, enhance satiety, improve digestion and boost keystone gut bacteria
