Weight Loss Treatments

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a medication that has been used for decades to treat and manage diabetes. Now shown to be effective in catalyzing weight loss, semaglutide can help obese or overweight patients reduce their appetite, increase satiety, and manage their weight. Semaglutide behaves similarly to a hormone released in the gut after eating, known as GLP-1.

In higher amounts, GLP-1 signals the part of the brain that prompts patients to feel full. In turn, semaglutide injections can suppress one’s appetite and allow patients to feel satisfied faster.

Appetite Suppressant

It’s normal to feel hungry. It’s your body’s way of telling you it’s time to fuel up. But if you find yourself craving food even though you just ate, there’s a good chance you’ll gain weight. 

Appetite suppressants are drugs designed to curb hunger and, in turn, help you lose weight. 

Lipotropic

Lipotropic injections contain vitamins and nutrients that some people believe may support weight loss. Side effects can vary based on what is in the injection. Lipotropic injections are supplements used for fat loss. These are intended to complementother aspects of a weight loss regimen, including exercise and a diet.

The injections most often contain vitamin B12, which is considered safe in large quantities. However, lipotropic injections used alone without a weight loss plan may not be safe.

Iv therapy

Intravenous administration of nutrients can achieve serum concentrations not obtainable with oral, or even intramuscular (IM), administration. For example, as the oral dose of vitamin C is increased progressively, the serum concentration of ascorbate tends to approach an upper limit, as a result of both saturation of gastrointestinal aborption and a sharp increase in renal clearance of vitamins.

Peptides

Peptides are tiny proteins made up of short chains of amino acids. They signal the cells in your body to perform in specific ways. Some peptides are designed to simulate human growth hormone (HGH) and are referred to as growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRP), while others are designed to support specific goals such as weight loss and reduction of joint/muscle pain.
