Semaglutide
The FDA - Approved Weight Loss Game Changer
semaglutide - what is it?
Semaglutide is a Glucose Like Peptide (GLP-1) protein. GLP-1s are naturally produced in the body which stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion to lower blood sugars. They also target areas in the brain that regulate appetite and food intake. These naturally occurring GLP-1s traditionally last minutes in our system whereas, Semaglutide is a modified GLP-1 that lasts much longer. Ultimately helping you feel full longer and allowing your body to utilize your natural insulin production more efficiently.
