Ever since the world found out about the weight-loss potential linked to Ozempic, patients have been asking our experts for a medication that can produce similar results. Now, our team at Simply Slim Medical is pleased to offer GLP-1 plus GIP program, an injectable medication that has been proven to be highly effective at helping patients to lose weight. When administered in a clinical setting under medical supervision, GLP-1 plus GIP program is a safe and easy way to suppress your appetite. Consuming fewer calories becomes much easier when you already feel full.
What is the GLP-1 plus GIP program?
Like Ozempic, the GLP-1 plus GIP program was originally devised as a drug for people with Type 2 diabetes. Patients and their doctors soon discovered that the GLP-1 plus GIP program not only helped to manage insulin levels and blood sugar production but also seemed to help them lose weight. By restraining hunger hormones, patients consumed fewer calories.
In subsequent clinical trials on patients without diabetes, weight loss results were replicated. Overweight and obese patients lost an average of 15-20% of their body weight (34 to 48 lbs.) over 72 weeks compared to a 3% loss in participants who were given a placebo injection.
GLP-1 plus GIP program is the first drug of its kind to be approved by the FDA for weight management. It is meant for patients with a BMI of over 30, or patients who have a BMI over 27 with a weight-related health complication (sleep apnea, high cholesterol, etc.). Researchers have found it to produce more weight loss than semaglutide (Wegovy).
How Does the GLP-1 plus GIP program Work?
While you eat, your body creates a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) hormone that sends a signal to your brain that you are full. GLP-1 plus GIP program (also known by its brand name Mounjaro) is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist, which means it can send feelings of fullness to your brain even when you have not just eaten, thus diminishing your appetite.
GLP-1 plus GIP program also imitates the GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) hormone, which helps your body to develop more insulin and amplify your feeling of fullness.
It can take multiple weeks of the GLP-1 plus GIP program injections for the drug to affect your appetite. Consistent, weekly use produces the best results.
Ultimately, it is still up to you to consume fewer calories. However, since the GLP-1 plus GIP program can suppress your cravings, maintaining a healthier diet should be much easier. Patients who combine this injectable drug with a diet and exercise plan tend to achieve the best results.
