ABOUT gLP-1
GLP-1 is a prescription medication specifically compounded to assist with weight management. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, GLP-1 can help adults achieve significant weight loss. It belongs to a class of medications called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, which mimic the natural hormone GLP-1 in the body.
This treatment works by regulating blood sugar levels after meals, stimulating insulin secretion, and slowing down the release of sugar into the bloodstream. By delaying stomach emptying, GLP-1 helps you feel fuller for longer, reducing overall calorie consumption. Clinical studies have shown that weekly GLP-1 injections can lead to an average weight loss of 9-13% over a year when combined with healthy lifestyle habits.
How Does GLP-1 Work?
Who is a Good Candidate for GLP-1
GLP-1 is ideal for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or greater or for adults with a BMI of 27 who also have at least one weight-related complication such as hypertension, insulin resistance, high cholesterol, or heart disease. However, it’s not suitable for everyone. People with the following conditions should avoid GLP-1
Pregnant or breastfeeding women
Individuals with a history of pancreatitis
Those with Type-1 diabetes
People allergic to Semaglutide or any of its ingredients
Individuals with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2
