Semaglutide Therapy
Achieve your weight loss goals with improved overall health
What is Semaglutide Weight Loss Therapy?
Semaglutide is a peptide which acts as a potent glucagon-like receptor agonist. It was initially prescribed for type 2 diabetes but has been shown to address obesity as well. When administered by weekly injection, it regulates blood sugar levels and leads to significant weight loss and improved metabolic health decreasing stroke and heart attack risk. The next generation GLP-1 is Tirzepatide, a dual peptide, glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) and a glucose dependent insulin like peptide (GIP). This newer peptide significantly decreases appetite and delays gastric emptying. Both of these medications may lead to 5- 25% decrease in body weight over several months. This associated weight loss and decrease in BMI directly contributes to improved overall health, decreased cardiac risk and stroke risks, and improved mobility.
Benefits of Semaglutide Weight Loss Therapy
Patients experience reduced food cravings, better blood sugar levels, and improved overall health. It is a non-invasive approach to achieving long term weight loss. It is generally well tolerated and if combined with a high protein diet or supplementation and exercise, can preserve muscle mass and strength at the expense of fat loss.
