The invention relates to a derivative of a GLP-1 peptide, which peptide comprises a first Lys residue at a position corresponding to position 36 of GLP-1(7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1), a second Lys residue at a position corresponding to position 37 of GLP-1(7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1), and a maximum of seven amino acid changes as compared to GLP-1(7-37) (SEQ ID NO: 1); which derivative comprises two protractors attached to said first and second Lys residue, respectively, each via a linker; wherein the protractor is selected from: HOOC--C.sub.6H.sub.4--O--(CH.sub.2).sub.y--CO--*, and Chem. 1: HOOC--(CH.sub.2).sub.x--CO--*, Chem. 2: wherein y is an integer in the range of 8-11, and x is 12; and the linker comprises at least one of: *--NH--CH(COOH)--(CH.sub.2).sub.2--CO--*, Chem. 3: *--NH--CH((CH.sub.2).sub.2--COOH)--CO--*, and/or Chem. 4: *--NH--(CH.sub.2).sub.2--[O--(CH.sub.2).sub.2].sub.k--O--[CH.sub.2].sub.n- --CO--*, Chem. 5: wherein k is an integer in the range of 1-5, and n is an integer in the range of 1-5; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, amide, or ester thereof. The invention also relates to the pharmaceutical uses thereof, such as for the treatment of diabetes and obesity, as well as to the GLP-1 peptides forming part of these derivatives which have Lys residues at positions 36 and 37 and no other Lys residues, and the GLP-1(9-37) fragments thereof. The invention furthermore relates to an intermediate product comprising 3-carboxyphenoxy-nonanoic acid with a protection group at the carboxy group of the nonanoic acid, optionally via a linker. The derivatives have a very good potency and a long half-life which makes them potentially useful for, e.g., oral administration.
