  • Semaglutide (Wegovy®, Ozempic®)
  • Tirzepatide (Mounjaro®, Zepbound®)
  • Liraglutide (Saxenda®, Victoza®)

These medications work by mimicking gut hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar, helping patients lose 15-25% of body weight when combined with lifestyle changes.

  • Personalized meal plans based on metabolic testing
  • Hormone and neurotransmitter balancing
  • Gut microbiome optimization
  • Targeted supplementation

Why Medical Supervision Matters

Weight loss medications require careful monitoring by physicians to:

  • Adjust dosing appropriately
  • Monitor for potential side effects
  • Ensure proper nutrition during weight loss
  • Address underlying metabolic issues
