Gavia Occidentalis :
tldr: Scientists made an interesting discovery: there is a peptide in Gila monsters is has a satiety hormone, which means the lizard doesn't have an impulse to eat for long periods of time. This discovery inspired research to synthesize a similar peptide appropriate for human use. We are not extracting peptides from reptiles.

I don't know why I get so insulted when british people mispronounce things, but I do and I am. The "g" is pronounced like an "h"!

I was mountain biking one day and a Gila monster was chillin in the path. I stopped in time and just chilled with it for a while cause I like never see them. Then it slunk into the brush and I left. Such a cool animal. It's like the reverse dragonfly!

If I had to guess the difference between the two compounds I'd say one was changed just enough to be patentable.

In honor of the lizard, maybe we should pronounce the peptide's name as He El Pee One. 😄

Just a point of clarification, glp1 has many more effects as a hormone than satiety.
