ABOUT SEMAGLUTIDE
How Does Semaglutide Work for Weight Loss?
Semaglutide mimics a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that targets areas in the brain regulating appetite and food intake. After eating, your digestive tract releases this hormone, lowering blood sugar by triggering insulin release to block sugar production. This process helps you eat less and lose one to two pounds per week. While a reduced-calorie meal plan enhances weight loss
