On a GLP-1 Medication?
A digestive timing change many users notice — and how bile support may help.
Educational information for individuals currently using GLP-1 medications.
Understanding the Change
GLP-1 receptor agonist medications like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, and Mounjaro® work by slowing gastric emptying. That's part of how they support appetite management and blood sugar.
This timing change can influence downstream digestive processes, including when bile is released.
Bile supports fat emulsification — breaking fats into smaller particles for digestion.
Some GLP-1 users notice their response to meals containing fats has changed. This isn't a problem with you or your medication — it's a normal variation that some users experience.
GLP-1 medication users sometimes report experiences such as:
• New sensitivity to meals containing fats
• Changed tolerance for foods like salmon, avocado, olive oil, or nuts
• Questions about how to include healthy fats in their nutrition plan
If this sounds familiar, bile-focused support may be worth exploring with your healthcare provider.
Digestive Timing and Bile Release
GLP-1 receptor agonist medications can slow the rate at which food moves from the stomach into the small intestine. This change in digestive timing is a normal physiological effect of these medications.
Because bile is released in response to fat entering the intestine, changes in timing may affect how and when bile becomes available during digestion. For some individuals, this shift can influence how dietary fats are tolerated.
Changes in digestive timing are a normal variation and do not indicate a problem with GLP-1 therapy.
How Gallavance May Support
Gallavance is formulated to support bile availability during digestion.
It provides bile acids and phospholipids in delayed-release capsules designed to open in the intestine, where fat emulsification occurs.
For some individuals using GLP-1 medications, this type of targeted digestive support may align with changes they notice around fat digestion, while maintaining their existing medication routine.
Two formulations available:
• Gallavance Original — bile-anchored formula
• Gallavance Plant-Based — 100% plant-derived
Important Information (Please Read)
• Gallavance is a dietary supplement, not a medication
• It is not affiliated with or endorsed by GLP-1 medication manufacturers
• Consult your prescribing physician before adding any supplement
• Gallavance does not treat, cure, or prevent disease or medication side effects
