Delayed gastric emptying reduces caloric intake by prolonging feelings of fullness. GLP-1 and GIP agonists slow the rate at which the stomach empties. Food in the stomach does not flow through continuously but cycles repeatedly, moving around and then stopping in multiple rounds. The cyclical pattern of movement and stops in the stomach repeats across multiple rounds before food is released.
