# GLP-1 Compare Hub

> GLP-1 Compare Hub is an AI-first health intelligence platform for GLP-1 medications and metabolic health. It provides sourced, conversational answers about semaglutide, tirzepatide, side effects, dosing, nutrition, and long-term weight maintenance, built from vetted clinical literature. It is an educational resource, not a clinic, pharmacy, or supplement vendor.

## About

GLP-1 Compare Hub organizes evidence-based GLP-1 education into eight knowledge clusters — comparisons, side effects, foundational guides, nutrition, exercise, dosing, plateaus, and metabolic health — and an AI assistant ("Ask AI") that answers conversational questions and links back to in-depth pages. All content is written in plain language, structured as short-answer-first explanations, and references published clinical trial data where available.

## Key entities

- Semaglutide — GLP-1 receptor agonist sold as Ozempic (diabetes, up to 2.0 mg/week) and Wegovy (weight management, up to 2.4 mg/week)
- Tirzepatide — dual GLP-1 / GIP receptor agonist sold as Mounjaro (diabetes) and Zepbound (weight management); SURMOUNT-1 mean total body weight loss ~22.5%
- GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) — incretin hormone that slows gastric emptying, increases satiety, and modulates insulin secretion
- Metabolic health — insulin sensitivity, glycemic control, cardiometabolic markers, body composition
- Titration — gradual dose escalation used to reduce GI side effects; standard semaglutide ramp is 0.25 → 0.5 → 1.0 → 1.7 → 2.4 mg weekly, 4 weeks per step
- Plateau — weight-loss stall on GLP-1 therapy; commonly reflects a new metabolic setpoint rather than treatment failure
