Improved Glycemic Control: Better management of blood sugar levels helps prevent the spikes and crashes that often lead to overeating
GLP-1 RAs stimulate the pancreas to create more insulin, a hormone that essentially gobbles up the glucose in your blood.12 That extra insulin leads to a reduction and balancing of blood sugar, which allows your body to more effectively regulate its fat stores without creating new, excessive adipose tissue
In 2021, semaglutide was approved, and Wegovy was available to patients as a once-weekly injectable to treat obesity
Concentration: Available in dosages of 0.25 mg and 0.5 mg per injection
Same molecule as the Wegovy shot and Ozempic, just packed into a tablet with an absorption helper called SNAC so enough of it survives your stomach
Also, eating smaller portions more frequently throughout the day (rather than three large meals) helps prevents your stomach from becoming too full, which is a major trigger for Ozempic-related discomfort
