What is Semaglutide?

A game-changer for weight loss.

Semaglutide is a prescription medication known for its positive effects on weight loss. Semaglutide, under the brand name Wegovy™, has been given FDA approval for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related condition, for use in addition to a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Semaglutide mimics glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), the hormone that targets the area of the brain that regulates food intake, appetite and improving sugar metabolism. By reducing appetite, improving control of eating and reducing food cravings, Semaglutide has shown promising results for weight loss.

In a clinical trial published by the New England Journal of Medicine, participants showed 12.5% mean weight loss over the placebo group, with more than a third of the group experiencing 20% weight reduction.

* Semaglutide is the generic compound for the FDA-approved brand name Wegovy™.

What to Expect

Prescription Weight Loss & Lifestyle Program

The best way to lose weight is to lose it and keep it off. With close to 80% of American adults overweight or obese, we are in desperate need for solutions for not only initial weight loss, but help with making necessary lifestyle changes to support long term weight management and healthy living. Obesity is an illness that can be linked to several serious health issues such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes. When taking Semaglutide, it should be paired with an effective eating strategy and lifestyle changes for sustained, long-term success.

NEVER sacrifice your health for weight loss. Dieting should be reserved for quick weight loss needs and should not be done for more than 30 days. Developing healthy eating habits is the only way to maintain weight loss. The use of Semaglutide must be combined with improved eating habits for long term success or you risk regaining of weight when you discontinue the Semaglutide. Statistically, this is the expected result with any diet if it does not include food related bahavior changes.

MOST POPULAR CHOICE

Semaglutide and Carb Revolution® Lifestyle Program

A science-backed eating strategy, Carb Revolution® uses intermittent fasting and carbohydrate cycling to balance, but not remove, important macronutrients in your diet. Carb cycling is the practice of consuming varying quantities of carbohydrates at specific days and times based on your activity and exercise. Fasting along with these strategic carbohydrate days, balanced protein and healthy fat intake, and specific dietary supplements contribute to an accelerated metabolic state while preserving lean muscle mass. That means you lose excess fat safely and effectively.

When Carb Revolution® and Semaglutide are combined, it becomes easier to restrict calorie intake and reduce the consumption of highly processed carbohyrdates, while increasing the intake of nutrient-dense foods. This structure will help control your appetite and improve insulin sensitivity while you get acclimated to intermittent fasting structure and all of the healthy benefits that come with it. Then, when it is time for you to taper off Semaglutide, your appetite will be controlled and your body will have already become adapted to using ketones as a fuel source to help protect your from weight gain.

“Intermittent fasting with the assistance of Semaglutide has helped my clients through the initial weeks of the Carb Revolution® eating strategy, improve their exercise regimen and report better overall well-being. These three factors provide necessary motivation and confidence needed to maintain the program long enough for the body to make key internal metabolic changes needed to get the full benefits of intermittent fasting. Once this is achieved, Semaglutide is discontinued and clients can retain appetite control and increased metabolic output by continuing the Carb Revolution structure”.
