### Logical proof (verify each step)
1. Articles are voxel graphs of tiered claims, not prose blobs. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/articles/constitution
2. Claims link to hash-chained sources via source_ids. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/articles/what-are-peptides-glp-1/sources
3. Ask reads topology; ingest/claim append to ledger. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/protocol
4. Models queue growth: populate → collaborate → repair → reflex. → https://miscsubjects.com/api/protocol/grow
5. Graph proves its own shape (reflex) and $/claim (yield). → https://miscsubjects.com/graph.html?layer=reflex

  "body": "## What's breaking down\n\nGLP-1 refers to glucagon-like peptide-1, a hormone your body releases after eating. It signals the pancreas to release insulin, slows stomach emptying, and tells the brain you are full. Over time or with excess weight, this natural signaling can weaken. Food intake stays high. Blood sugar control slips. Fat storage continues. The result is a cycle where metabolic repair pathways lag behind ongoing breakdown from overeating and inflammation.\n\nNo single tissue fails first. The gut-brain axis, pancreatic response, and energy balance all drift. GLP-1 agonist medications are synthetic peptides designed to mimic and strengthen that signal. They are not natural repair compounds. They alter metabolism to support weight reduction and glucose control.\n\n## Why GLP-1 agonists (class) matters for you\n\n1. **Drug:** GLP-1 agonists (class) — examples include semaglutide and the dual GIP/GLP-1 agonist tirzepatide. These are injectable or oral peptide analogs.\n2. **What it does:** They bind GLP-1 receptors (and GIP receptors for tirzepatide). This increases insulin release when glucose is high, reduces glucagon, slows gastric emptying, and increases satiety via brain pathways. Average weight loss in trials reaches 15-
