How Do GLP-1 & GIP agonist therapies Work?

GLP-1 and GIP agonists are a prescription medication formulated specifically to assist with weight management. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, GLP-1 and GIP agonsits can help adults achieve significant weight loss. These classes of medications called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonists, mimic the natural hormones GLP-1 & GIP 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 & GIP help you feel fuller for longer, reducing overall calorie consumption. Clinical studies have shown that weekly GLP-1 & GIP injections can lead to an average weight loss of 9-13% over a year when combined with healthy lifestyle habits.


What to Expect During GLP-1 & GIP Treatment

GLP-1 /GIP is administered via a simple injection just under the skin (subcutaneously), typically in the abdomen. Your practitioner will guide you on how to administer the injections and adjust the dosage as needed. Most patients begin to see weight loss typically within a month. It’s important to have realistic expectations and to stay consistent with your treatment plan to achieve the best results.


Who Is a Good Candidate for GLP-1 / GIP agonists?

GLP-1/GIP agonists are 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 Semaglutide:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women

  • Individuals with a history of pancreatitis

  • Those with Type-1 diabetes

  • People allergic to GLP-1/GIP or any of its ingredients

  • Individuals with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2

  • Those with a history of thyroid cancer

Always consult a medical professional before starting Semaglutide to ensure it’s the right fit for you.


FAQs

The breakthrough weight loss solution lowers blood sugar levels after meals. It regulates blood sugar by stimulating glucose-dependent insulin secretion.

    GLP-1 / GIP peptides slow down the release of sugar into your blood, so your body burns more fat. They also delay stomach emptying, leaving you feeling fuller longer and limiting your overall calorie consumption.
