Daniel Drucker is an endocrinologist from Toronto who discovered a hormone called GLP-1 in 1984. This hormone helps control blood sugar and appetite. Many years later, a drug called semaglutide, which mimics GLP-1, proved effective for weight loss. This led to the creation of Ozempic and similar drugs like Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Rybelsus. These medications are now widely used to help people with diabetes and obesity. Dr. Drucker continues his research, aiming to develop even better treatments.
