Endocrine News review of a 2024 Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism review — the clearest peer-reviewed estimate of how much of GLP-1 weight loss is lean mass [11]
What to look for
Peer-reviewed, not news — JAMA, Nature, The Medical Letter, PMC [1][2][3][6]
Muscle measured, not inferred — reports fat mass vs lean mass separately [6][7]
Quantified loss — states a share of weight lost as lean mass [7][11]
Trial evidence — clinical trial data, not commentary [6][12]
Recent — 2024–, when muscle-loss data matured [11]
