What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved weight loss injection & is one of the most extensively researched weight loss solutions.

Semaglutide increases insulin secretion by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone that is released in the gastrointestinal tract in response to eating. The body slows down how fast your stomach empties food which suppresses your appetite, so you feel full longer, helping you eat less & lose weight.

Am I a candidate for Semaglutide weight loss injections?

Our medical physician will review your personal health history & goals to determine whether you are a good candidate for weight loss with Semaglutide injections. Adults with a body mass index (or BMI) greater than or equal to 30 can use Semaglutide.

You may also be a candidate for Semaglutide weight loss if your BMI is 27 & you have at least one of the following weight-related conditions:

  • High blood pressure

  • High cholesterol

  • Type 2 diabetes

While lifestyle changes including a healthy diet & exercise is suggested for optimal results with the use of Semaglutide, these measures are not necessary to lose weight.
