Semaglutide- The new "game-changing" weight-loss drug

The new "game-changing" weight-loss medication:

Semaglutide

Whats the hype?

Most of us have heard of Semaglutide recently for weight loss.

But how Does Semaglutide Work?!

Semaglutide mimics the GLP-1 protein that our bodies naturally make in the intestine. This hormone sends a signal to the brain telling it that the body is satisfied and doesn't need to consume any more food. The natural form of GLP-1 has a half-life of just two minutes, so you may begin to feel hungry again shortly after the body stops producing it. Semaglutide, on the other hand, has a half-life of SEVEN WHOLE DAYS. Studies have shown notable results with semaglutide injections.

In a recent study using Semaglutide, many participants reduced their body weight by over 15%!

Why is Semaglutide a preferred choice for weight loss?

1. Not a Controlled Substance

Semaglutide is FDA-approved to help people lose and maintain a healthy weight. Because it does not contain phentermine, another drug commonly used for weight loss, it is not a controlled substance.

2. Backed by Science

According to a recent study, Semaglutide was used in a trial to examine its effect on weight loss. Those taking Semaglutide lost just over 15% of their body fat, while those taking the placebo lost just over 2% of their body fat. Additionally, more than 77% of the participants taking Semaglutide lost 5% of their body weight.

3. May help increase energy

We prescribe a Semaglutide/ B12 compounded combination, which has been shown to help increase energy in most patients.

4. Only 1 Injection per week

Semaglutide has a half-life of SEVEN WHOLE DAYS. The modified hormone resists the enzymes that would otherwise break down GLP-1. Patients need only one weekly injection for this therapy to work.
