Three Different Options for Weight Loss

GLP-1 peptide Injection, FDA Approved

GLP-1 peptide is a medicine used for weight loss in specific patients, and to lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack or stroke in type two diabetic patients.

GLP-1 peptide is a glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist and works by increasing insulin release, lowering the amount of glucagon released, delaying gastric emptying and reducing appetite. GLP-1 peptide also controls appetite, therefore the amount of food that you want to eat is decreased. GLP-1 peptide is not for use in people with type 1 diabetes.

MIC/B12 weight loss series

MIC (methionine, inositol, choline) are amino acids that help break down fat cells. Additionally, MIC injections convert fat into energy. It also decreases cholesterol build up in the body. B12 is an energy booster, increasing your metabolism. This is the popular weight loss injection that everyone is talking about. Best results are shown when receiving MIC/B12 injections once a week for 3 months and decrease caloric intake and continue to exercise.

Retatrutide

Retatrutide – a next-generation injectable targeting three metabolic pathways (GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors) to support significant weight loss and improved metabolic health, administered under medical supervision as part of a personalized plan.’ (Confirm exact clinical wording with provider.)

How Does It Work?

Methionine

is an amino acid that activates S-adenosyl methionine which breaks down estrogen carnitine (a fat carrier molecule). Methionine produces choline, creatine, epinephrine (energy), melatonin synthesis (aids in sleep, powerful antioxidant), nucleic acid synthesis (breakdown of histamine), glutathione synthesis (major detox antioxidant of the body), and maintains cartilage health.

Inositol

transports fats through the body, converts food into energy, helps neurons communicate better with the body’s nervous system, and is vital for hair growth. Lastly, inositol combined with choline produces lecithin, which aids in the breakdown of cholesterol.

Choline

is also an essential part of normal cell function by helping to transport nutrients throughout the body and decreases the risk for heart disease as it helps breakdown fat as cholesterol and helps prevent accumulation of fat in the liver.

Vitamin B12

is a co-factor in the transfer of methyl groups in the body, important in the synthesis of DNA. B12 helps to increase red blood cell production and support the nervous system. Low B12 can result in low energy, tingling sensation or numbness in the hands or feet, swollen, red cracked tongue, mood changes, trouble concentrating and remembering things, and megaloblastic anemia.
