Lastly, semaglutide increases the bodys insulin sensitivity, which aids in better utilization of glucose and fat storage
Weight loss injections primarily include glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists such as semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro), which is a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1 receptor agonist
The choice between these two medications must be based on a comprehensive medical evaluation, treatment goals, and potential side effects with your healthcare provider
However, the weight loss isnt just fat
FACTORS THAT CAN AFFECT WEIGHT LOSS Some factors may be more obvious (or not) like diet, exercise, and water intake that will all be reviewed and considered during your appointment
