In addition to its metabolic effects, GLP-1 plays a role in liver health by reducing inflammation and fat accumulation. Studies in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) show that GLP-1 improves liver function, with lower levels of inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein. Its benefits extend to the liver’s ability to process fats, thus reducing the risk of progression to liver fibrosis or cirrhosis. These actions make GLP-1 and its receptor agonists valuable in treating liver-related metabolic disorders, highlighting the importance of GLP-1 in overall metabolic health.
