Weight Loss Injectable Medications
About Semaglutide
While it is very important to eat healthy and exercise, sometimes those alone are not enough to help us lose weight. Especially as we age, and our metabolism slows down. A new modern, medical solution for weight loss is here, semaglutide!
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved prescription peptide for weight management. It is a weekly injectable that helps regulate blood sugar levels, regulates appetite, slows down the emptying of the stomach, and controls your body’s glucose production. This allows semaglutide to help you safely lose weight and keep it off.
About tirzepatide
Some people have heard of using tirzepatide for weight loss. While not officially approved by the FDA for this clinical indication, tirzepatide has demonstrated promising early results in regards to weight reduction in patients participating in tirzepatide studies. Tirzepatide has been observed to improve the body's sensitivity to insulin, reduce hunger and stabilize glucagon levels - all of which could help explain observed substantial and sustained reductions in weight.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B-12 aides in the growth of healthy blood cells, nerve cells, and bodily proteins; assist with the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates to release energy; help regulate appetite and mood (key factors in overeating); and are a great treatment for people who cannot absorb vitamin B-12. Vitamin B-12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin that is commonly found in a variety of foods such as fish, shellfish, meat, eggs, and dairy products. Important in DNA synthesis, vitamin B-12 is frequently used in combination with other B vitamins in what is known as a vitamin B-complex formulation. Vitamin B-12 is bound to the protein in food, and released by stomach acids during digestion. Once released, B-12 combines with a substance called intrinsic factor (IF) before it is absorbed into the bloodstream.
lipotropic mino w/ B vitamins
Methionine Choline injections (MIC) also referred to as Lipotropic Injections, or Lipo Injections, are used to help release fat throughout the body by specifically targeting its primary fatty deposits. Lipotropic, or fat burning substances include: choline, which distributes cholesterol and prevents it from getting deposited in one part of the body, and methionine which amplifies it. Injections can be administered up to twice a week, and vitamin B-12 is purported by practitioners and users to help accelerate metabolic processes, while creating a greater feeling of overall energy. Since lipotropics directly aid in the breakdown of fatty tissue, and are also closely related to B vitamins, when used together, they are thought to intensify each others' effects and are usually injected together as part of the same treatment injection cycle.
