How Semaglutide promotes lasting weight loss
Semaglutide is part of a class of medications called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which were originally developed to help regulate blood sugar in people with Type 2 diabetes. By mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite, Semaglutide helps you feel full more quickly and stay satisfied longer.
This process makes it easier to reduce calorie intake without feeling deprived. In addition to controlling appetite, Semaglutide slows the emptying of the stomach, allowing you to feel fuller for longer periods. This combination helps you stick to a calorie-controlled diet, promoting steady and sustained weight loss over time.
