Semaglutide is an FDA approved weight loss medication that can help burn fat, curb cravings, boost energy, and much more!
The clinically and scientifically proven medication works with your body naturally to create the feeling of being full (satiated) by targeting the brain to reduce your appetite, decrease caloric consumption and slow stomach emptying. Your weight also hovers around a “set point” which is the number you usually see on the scale when you weigh yourself. The medication creates a lower set point after you lose your weight goal amount.
What are Semaglutide and tirzepatide? These are prescription strength medications that work on the GLP-1 receptors in the body. They work in the pancreas to promote insulin release to help regulate blood sugar. They work in the stomach to slow down gastric emptying, which helps clients feel full and satisfied after eating with smaller portion sizes. They work in the central nervous system to help regulate appetite and quiet “food noise.” There is new evidence to suggest that these medications may affect food preferences and help individuals make healthier food choices.
Effective Weight Loss: In large scale clinical trials patients on semaglutide lost up to 15% of their body weight and the majority were able to maintain that weight loss after coming off medication. These medications can also improve conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and reduce the risk of heart attacks. Some studies are even showing it can reduce unhealthy cravings for alcohol.
There is new medication that’s proving to be a true game-changer in the weight-loss industry. The FDA approved, Doctor prescribed medicine is individually blended for every patient and works with your body to help the pounds melt away!
Rethinking Obesity: New drugs and surgery can delivery major weight loss
Semaglutide is a medication used for weight management in adults with obesity or
overweight with at least one weight-related condition.
Semaglutide works by mimicking the effects of a hormone called GLP-1, which helps regulate
appetite and food intake, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss.
Semaglutide is typically prescribed for adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or
with a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related condition, such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure.
Significant weight loss can typically be seen within the first few months of starting
semaglutide treatment, with continued weight loss over time with adherence to the treatment
plan.
Common side effects of semaglutide may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation,
abdominal pain, and decreased appetite. Serious side effects may include pancreatitis and
gallbladder problems.
Some weight regain may occur after discontinuing semaglutide, particularly if dietary and
lifestyle habits are not maintained. However, long-term weight maintenance strategies can help
minimize weight regain.
Long-term effects of semaglutide for weight loss are still being studied, but current research
suggests it can lead to sustained weight loss and improvements in obesity-related conditions.
If a dose of semaglutide is missed, it should be administered as soon as possible within 5
days of the missed dose, then continue with the regular dosing schedule.
