For many people, weight loss feels like a cycle of frustration—strict diets, endless exercise, and still little to no progress. If you’ve struggled to shed unwanted pounds or manage your blood sugar levels, it may not be a lack of effort, but rather an issue with how your body processes food and regulates metabolism.
Semaglutide is a peptide that offers a breakthrough solution, helping patients overcome plateaus, improve metabolic health, and achieve lasting results.
At Genesis Integrative Medicine in Manitowoc, WI, Terra Hartman, FNP, recommends semaglutide therapy to help patients lose weight naturally while improving overall health.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, a class of medications designed to mimic the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1, a hormone naturally produced in the gut.
GLP-1 plays a crucial role in signaling fullness, slowing down digestion, and regulating blood sugar levels. By enhancing this natural process, semaglutide helps patients feel satisfied sooner, eat less, and experience more consistent energy.
Initially developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, semaglutide is now widely used for weight management and overall metabolic health.
Semaglutide is FDA-approved for certain conditions, including diabetes management and weight loss for individuals with obesity.
How Semaglutide Works
Semaglutide is administered as a small subcutaneous injection, typically once per week. Once in the body, it:
- Reduces appetite by signaling satiety centers in the brain.
- Slows gastric emptying, which prolongs fullness after meals.
- Improves blood sugar regulation by increasing insulin secretion and reducing glucose spikes.
- Supports fat metabolism for gradual, sustainable weight loss.
When combined with healthy eating and exercise, semaglutide helps patients not only lose weight but also improve long-term metabolic health.
Benefits of Semaglutide Therapy
Patients who undergo semaglutide therapy may experience:
- Steady weight loss without extreme diets
- Improved blood sugar control and reduced insulin resistance
- Decreased inflammation and improved cardiovascular health
- Better digestion and reduced cravings
- Increased energy and a more stable mood
- Support for hormonal balance and stress regulation
Beyond weight loss, many patients find that semaglutide improves overall wellness, making it easier to stay active, manage stress, and maintain a healthier lifestyle.
Who Can Benefit from Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is designed for men and women who want safe, effective support for weight loss and metabolic health. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Struggle with obesity or difficulty losing weight
- Have insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes
- Experience frequent cravings or appetite control issues
- Want to reduce cardiovascular risks and improve long-term health
- Seek a medical, guided approach rather than a one-size-fits-all diet plan
