Privo di documenti, è stato assassinato, ma non di recente: il dottor Torrazzi stabilisce che l’omicidio risale a circa due anni prima. È quindi un “Caso Freddo”. Come il freddo che avvolge Antonio quando riconosce il nome della via e poi quando entra nella cantina.

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) is a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels and appetite. It is released from the intestines in response to food intake and stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, which helps lower blood sugar levels. Additionally, GLP-1 slows down the emptying of the stomach, leading to increased feelings of fullness and reduced food intake. In the context of weight management, GLP-1-based medications are used to help individuals with obesity or type 2 diabetes control their weight.
