Transform Your Body with Ozempic Diet.org

Semaglutide comes as an injectable drug marketed as Ozempic, Wegovy or is now available as

compounded with B6 or B12 or L-carnitine. It also comes in a pill form and is marketed as Rybelsus.

Semaglutide in high dosage is approved by the FDA for weight loss under the brand name Wegovy. All three

brand names Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus are not covered by most insurance plans and are

sometimes not well tolerated by some patients. The compounded Semaglutide with B6 or B12 or L-Carnitine assists with unwanted gastrointestinal issues and has affordable prices. It should be noted

that Semaglutide is not a miracle drug and it's not for everyone. There is no cure for obesity. It requires

lifelong treatment that’s not one size fits all.

What is Semaglutide ?

Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists, or is

now advertised as GLP-1 Ras. It should be noted that it mimics the GLP-1 hormone, released in the gut in response to eating food. So it is only effective when one consumes a measured diet and is ineffective in starvation mode opposite to appetite suppressants.

The role of GLP-1 is to prompt the body to produce more insulin, which reduces blood sugar (glucose) which stops the formation of fat and uses the stored fat for energy resulting in significant weight loss.

How effective is Semaglutide for weight loss in non-diabetics?

Several anti-obesity medications can help suppress appetite and create caloric deficit resulting in weight loss. But Semaglutide injections or by mouth pill “Rybelsus” performs differently. In controlled studies, obese adults with minor lifestyle changes with Semaglutide and diet and exercise lost 15% of their body weight after 68 weeks. And nearly a third lost 20% of their weight. The participants who incorporated only lifestyle changes lost about 2.4% of their weight, confirming that Semaglutide does help people for whom diet and exercise are not especially helpful. Since then, additional studies have shown that participants who stopped taking Semaglutide suddenly and did not incorporate tapering off medication and amending their life style, tends to gain weight.

The fundamentals of obesity management are always be changes to diet and exercise. But using anti-obesity medications is another toolbox-depending on the person’s clinical history.
