Shed's GLP-1 Boost is a daily supplement engineered to naturally support your body's production of GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1), a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar and appetite. While prescription GLP-1 medications work through direct injection, GLP-1 Boost offers a convenient, oral alternative—an excellent option for those not ready for (or not eligible to start) injectable weight-loss medications.
Each cutting-edge ingredient synergistically promotes better metabolic health:
- Eriomin®: A lemon flavonoid antioxidant that encourages GLP-1 production and supports insulin sensitivity, inflammation, and gut health. Clinical studies show Eriomin® (a standardized extract of eriocitrin) can increase GLP-1 levels by 15%, reduce blood glucose by 5%, and improve insulin resistance by 7% over 12 weeks (source).
- Berberine: Helps enhance glucose metabolism and GLP-1 levels for better blood sugar control and reduced cravings. Clinical research shows berberine activates AMPK and improves insulin sensitivity and waist circumference, supporting its use for weight management (source).
- Capsaicin: The active compound in chili peppers, capsaicin boosts metabolism, curbs appetite, and supports fat burning. It also activates TRPV1, raising energy expenditure and increasing fat oxidation, as established in clinical studies (source).
- Vitamin B12: Essential for energy production and a well-functioning metabolism in its bioavailable form.
How does GLP-1 Boost work? GLP-1 Boost helps stimulate your own GLP-1 production, which in turn slows gastric emptying, helps you feel fuller for longer, and makes it easier to eat at a calorie deficit for steady weight loss.
GLP-1 Boost vs. prescription GLP-1 medications
For those researching GLP-1 weight-loss solutions, it’s important to know your options. Read our in-depth guide on GLP-1 medications here to compare programs, prices, and results for prescription options like Wegovy®, Ozempic®, and compounded semaglutide or compounded tirzepatide.
- GLP-1 Boost (Shed): Non-prescription, plant-based formula; ideal for gradual weight loss, curbing cravings, and supporting healthy blood sugar—especially if you do not qualify for or prefer to avoid injections.
- Prescription GLP-1s: This includes compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, which are usually injected weekly and closely monitored by healthcare professionals. Learn about eligibility, insurance, pricing, and the differences between GLP-1 programs and medications.
Not sure which is right for you? Shed can guide you through lab work, eligibility checks, and even micro-dosing plans for prescription GLP-1 programs as well.
Evidence-based results: How effective is GLP-1 Boost?
Human clinical trials have revealed impressive outcomes when boosting natural GLP-1 pathways:
- GLP-1 pathway and insulin sensitivity improved by 15% in just 12 weeks (3 published studies).
- Insulin resistance dropped by 7%, and blood glucose was reduced by 5% on average.
- In a Supresa study over 8 weeks, hunger fell by 69%, appetite by 70%, and snacking events by 55%—showcasing significant benefits for appetite and metabolic health.
- Capsaicinoids have been shown in meta-analyses to enhance thermogenesis and reduce appetite, further backing their use for weight management (source).
GLP-1 Boost is especially useful for:
- Those needing cravings support but not ready for prescription weight-loss medications
- People seeking slow, steady weight loss or craving control with fewer side effects
- Individuals interested in improving their relationship with food and appetite awareness
