Characteristics and food consumption for current, previous, and potential consumers of GLP-1 s
Open accessAbstract
Widespread adoption of Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists could cause significant changes in food consumption and preferences that disrupt the food industry. In this study, we survey four consumer groups to better understand how GLP-1 s may affect food consumption and preferences. The four groups were: 1) consumers currently using a GLP-1, 2) consumers who have previously used a GLP-1, 3) consumers who haven't used a GLP-1 but plan to in the future, and 4) consumers who haven't used a GLP-1 and don't plan to in the future. Results show that consumers currently taking a GLP-1 consume significantly fewer calories than the other groups surveyed, and calorie reduction while taking a GLP-1 for weight loss could be around 720 to 990 cal. Additionally, those taking GLP-1 s most likely reduce consumption of processed foods, sugar-sweetened beverages, refined grains, and beef. The results of this study will inform potential consumers and food companies of valuable insights into the broader effects of GLP-1 s on caloric intake and food preferences. • The consumer market for Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists is significant. • We surveyed four consumer groups, including those who had or are taking a GLP-1. • Gender, household size, and education were associated with GLP-1 use and interest. • Intake recall suggests that GLP-1 users reduce consumption more than 700 cal. • GLP-1 users reduced consumption of processed foods, soda, refined grains, and beef.

In the citing paper
“For example, GLP-1 based therapy has been associated with a reduction in the consumption of meat (beef, pork and fish) and therefore reduced protein intake, which can lead ultimately to accelerated reduction of LBM and reduced muscle mass, strength and function [67].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
