Semaglutide is a medication that mimics the function of the GLP-1 hormone, which regulates appetite within the brain. The process suppresses appetite and results in other benefits, such as reduced blood sugar by limiting sugar production in the liver, as well as increased anti-inflammation and cardiovascular health..
It can be difficult to reduce unwanted fat through traditional diet and exercise. Semaglutide treatment provides an additional 15 to 20 percent reduction in body weight in comparison to a 2 to 3 percent reduction in body weight when using traditional diet and exercise alone. Semaglutide slows gastric processes/emptying and reduces appetite. As a result, individuals tend to eat less since it staggers the release of glucose from digested food, which drives a more robust weight loss.
