FAQ
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved weight-loss treatment for adults.
It’s an injectable medication that was originally used to treat type 2 diabetes, but when it was noticed how much weight patients were losing, it was studied, tested, and ultimately approved independently as a weight-loss medication.
The compound itself belongs to a class of drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, which are used to reduce blood sugar and energy intake.

It basically mimics a hormone that the gut naturally produces in response to food (called glucagon-like peptide 1, or GLP-1), and which causes both a reduced appetite and improves metabolic function.
This means you instinctively eat less and more easily lose weight, without ever feeling hungry or deprived of food.
It works due to 3 main processes:
1. Slows down how fast your stomach empties -> when you eat you feel full faster and stay full for longer.
2. Blocks the hunger hormone (ghrelin) -> reduces cravings for high-calorie foods.
3. Increases insulin production and decreases release of glucagon -> leads the body to burn fat faster in order to turn it to energy.
