Given the low cost of production, a 20-gram scoop of dried algae powder taken twice daily could, in principle, contain an orally adjusted therapeutic dose of a GLP-1 agonist for around $4/day.4 The cost argument alone is compelling, but using edible algae provides another benefit: keeping the GLP-1 inside the algal cell wall may improve the drugs survival in the gut

On the other hand, the liver mitochondrial redox state is a dominant influence on the mitochondria of other tissues because of its greater capacity to oxidize fat and to produce, but importantly, not use, the ketones, acetoacetate and -hydroxybutyrate ( in vivo and may be slower than the pyridine nucleotide redox state
The process dissolves the freeze-dried powder into a liquid solution that can be drawn into a syringe and administered
