Florizel
Florizel is a synthetic analog of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) that supports metabolic function and glucose homeostasis. Pancreatic polypeptide is released after meals and plays a role in appetite regulation, gastric motility, and pancreatic exocrine secretion. Florizel may help improve insulin sensitivity, reduce appetite, and normalize digestive function. It is used in metabolic health protocols, particularly for individuals with impaired glucose metabolism or metabolic syndrome.
