See If Semaglutide Is Right for You
More and more clients are coming to our clinic curious about using semaglutide for weight loss. Semaglutide is an injectable anti-obesity medication recently approved by the FDA that is making headlines, with some people boasting great results. However, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution, especially not for something as complex as obesity. We encourage interested clients to make an appointment with us to discuss their medical history and weight loss goals to find out whether semaglutide injections are an appropriate treatment.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a prescription drug originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone released in your gut in response to eating, prompting the body to produce more insulin and reduce blood sugar levels.
However, higher amounts of GLP-1 can also signal to your brain that you feel full, suppressing your appetite. Thus, some non-diabetic people have begun utilizing semaglutide for weight loss.
While more research still needs to be done to determine how effective semaglutide is for treating obesity, early studies are promising. That said, semaglutide is not a magical cure, and it must be used in combination with good nutrition and regular exercise. Side effects include dizziness, fatigue, gastrointestinal issues, headaches, and stomach issues.
