Semaglutide helps with weight loss by mimicking a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) which is produced in the body when nutrients are detected during eating. When semaglutide binds to GLP-1 receptors in the body, it can help people feel full and less hungry, which can lead to a decrease in food consumption.
Semaglutide is most effective as a chronic weight management aid when combined with lifestyle changes like a reduced-calorie diet and regular exercise.
When taken correctly, semaglutide can affect weight loss through two primary actions: blood sugar management and appetite regulation.
Semaglutide’s multiple benefits can help lower blood sugar, reduce body weight, and lower the risk of cardiovascular events—like heart attack, stroke, or heart disease—in millions of patients.
Losing weight with Firefly Health comes with a multitude of benefits:
Semaglutide is a medication belonging to the class of GLP-1 receptor agonists. It has several brand names, including Ozempic, Rybelsus and Wegovy.
It mimics the action of the hormone glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which stimulates the pancreas to release insulin after meals, helps cells take up glucose, and promotes feelings of fullness. Additionally, semaglutide slows down the rate at which food leaves the stomach.
