What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, or GLP-1 RAs. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone, released in the gut in response to eating.
One role of GLP-1 is to prompt the body to produce more insulin, which reduces blood sugar (glucose). For that reason, healthcare providers have used Semaglutide for more than 15 years to treat Type 2 diabetes.
How it works?
GLP-1 in higher amounts interacts with the parts of the brain that suppress your appetite and signal you to feel full. When used in conjunction with diet and exercise, it can cause significant weight loss — and a reduced risk of cancer, diabetes and heart disease — in people who are obese or overweight.
Semaglutide has a secondary beneficial effect on blood sugar control. It stimulates the pancreas to release insulin more effectively when blood glucose levels are high while also reducing the liver’s production of glucose. This dual action assists in weight management and aids in the better management of type 2 diabetes, making it a versatile tool in treating obesity and diabetes-related conditions.
This scientific approach to weight management and blood sugar control makes Semaglutide a groundbreaking weight loss medication.
