Ozempic, Wegovy (Semaglutide), and other weight loss medications have taken our society by storm. When medically supervised, Semaglutide can be a safe and highly effective solution for those struggling to lose weight. Semaglutide was originally developed to manage type 2 diabetes. Studies have shown that patients who take Semaglutide in combination with a healthy diet and exercise plan can lose up to 15% of their body weight.
At Vita Pure, we offer Semaglutide weight loss programs that are carefully monitored by a medical professional. Our team is happy to answer some of the most common questions you may have if you are on the fence about trying Semaglutide.
Semaglutide is a medication that belongs to the category of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs). It works by imitating the GLP-1 hormone, which is naturally released in the gut after eating.
One function of GLP-1 is to stimulate the body to produce more insulin, which helps lower blood sugar (glucose) levels. Because of this, healthcare providers have utilized Semaglutide for over 15 years to treat Type 2 diabetes.
However, when present in higher amounts, GLP-1 also interacts with brain regions that suppress appetite and create a feeling of fullness. When combined with diet and exercise, Semaglutide can lead to significant weight loss and reduce the risk of cancer, diabetes, and heart disease in individuals who are obese or overweight.
Semaglutide is administered via a weekly injection. While some providers allow patients to self-inject, at Vita Pure, our medical team administers your weekly injections. This allows us to proactively monitor progress and make adjustments to your treatment plan if needed. It is essential that you receive your Semaglutide from a trusted medical provider.
In addition to weight loss, there are several benefits of Semaglutide, these include:
Semaglutide also shows promising results for treating polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS. If you qualify for a Semaglutide Weight Loss program, it truly offers a host of benefits. More and more studies show the negative impact of obesity on our overall health. Semglutide, being a proven way to lose weight, can be an antidote for the negative impact of obesity.
The most common side effects of Semaglutide are gastrointestinal issues, including nausea, constipation, and diarrhea. The Vita Pure medical team does everything we can to minimize any side effects, including starting on a lower dose and actively monitoring your progress each week. It’s essential to follow the guidance provided by the Vita Pure medical team to lessen your chances of experiencing any negative side effects.
Vita Pure offers a 3-month kickstart program package as well as monthly Semaglutide maintenance plans. The kickstart package begins with a consultation with one of our medical professionals as well as initial labs. Your medical history, lifestyle and overall health and goals will be reviewed. The program also includes a once-weekly Semaglutide injection along with a B12 or MICC IM shot. Our medical professionals will consult with you before starting treatments, making sure this option is best for you.
