WHAT IS SEMAGLUTIDE?

Semaglutide is a medication that falls into the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor antagonist medications class. This medication has gained popularity recently for its remarkable impact on weight loss and diabetes management.

Semaglutide recreates the GLP-1 hormone, a gut-derived peptide the intestinal L-cells secrete after you eat a meal. This hormone plays a significant role in glucose homeostasis, assists glucose-induced secretion, and restricts glucagon secretion. In addition, it reportedly acts as a satiety factor, interacting with parts of the brain that reduce appetite to let you know when you’re full.

Given its ability to mimic the GLP-1 hormone, semaglutide is becoming a sought-after tool for people with diabetes and those seeking to lose weight. Semaglutide, which can be injected under the skin, or taken by mouth, can trigger feelings of fullness, thereby helping individuals eat less and lose weight.

BENEFITS OF SEMAGLUTIDE

Semaglutide offers various notable benefits for managing type 2 diabetes and weight loss alike. In individuals with type 2 diabetes or heart or blood vessel disease, semaglutide is often used to:

Help control blood sugar levels, typically together with diet and exercise

  • Lower the risk of heart attacks

  • Lower the risk of strokes

  • Lower the risk of death

Semaglutide is also used for weight loss and offers:

  • Proven efficacy: Various studies demonstrate the effectiveness of semaglutide used with a diet and exercise program. One study examined progress over 68 weeks and saw half of participants lose 15% of their body weight while nearly a third lost 20%. Participants who solely incorporated lifestyle changes without semaglutide lost around 2.4% of their body weight.

  • Improved metabolic health: Several studies showcase the connection between semaglutide and improved metabolic health. One study found that semaglutide may improve cardiometabolic risk factors.

  • Non-surgical alternative: While bariatric surgery can be an effective solution to help individuals lose weight, it may not be an appealing solution for everyone. Semaglutide presents a non-surgical alternative to weight loss, making it a viable option for those who prefer to avoid surgery.

  • Appetite suppression: Semaglutide helps mimic the effects of GLP-1, which regulates the appetite and communicates with the brain to reduce the appetite. This can help progress weight loss significantly.
