Semaglutide and Tirzepatide treatments
As an overweight adult trying to lose weight, you may have attempted using over-the-counter weight-loss pills to achieve your goals. However, scientific and clinical evidence suggests that many of these so-called “weight-loss supplements” fail to trigger the necessary hormones to control your appetite and promote fat loss over time.
Additionally, some of these supplements may contain unknown additives that could potentially harm your body and have detrimental effects on your overall health.
What are Semaglutide and Tirzepatide treatments?
Our comprehensive Hormone Optimization Program offers effective weight management solutions for patients. Through our extensive research, we have discovered that none of the medications we use are as safe and powerful as Semaglutide, which is a glucagon-like peptide (GLP1) agonist.
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that stimulates insulin and inhibits glucagon release, leading to a decrease in blood sugar levels and aiding in weight loss. In addition, this medication can make you feel satiated after consuming small amounts of food and effectively reduce your appetite by slowing down gastrointestinal motility responsible for digestion.
Aside from Semaglutide injections, we have also seen positive results using Tirzepatide, which is a recently FDA-approved medication for treating Type 2 Diabetes. While it has not yet been officially designated for managing overweight or obesity, most patients have reported being pleased with its weight loss effects. Like Semaglutide, Tirzepatide operates as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, but it also contains a GIP receptor agonist, simulating two different incretin hormones naturally produced by the human body.
What can you expect ?
We understand that every individual case is unique, and your weight loss outcomes may differ based on your body’s reaction, progress throughout treatment, and changes in lifestyle. However, clinical trials have demonstrated that over 50% of patients who use Semaglutide injections can experience a weight loss of up to 10% of their total body weight, which is higher than patients who used other weight loss medications and only achieved a 5% weight loss.
At Optimized Health, we strive to correct the common misconception that medical weight loss is a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. We encourage our patients to incorporate physical activity and nutritious eating habits into their daily lives. To achieve the best short-term and long-term results, it is critical to commit yourself to regular physical activity and healthy eating habits, leading to better health outcomes.
