A GLP-1 is a natural hormone in your body that helps control appetite and blood sugar. GLP-1 medications mimic this hormone, helping you feel full longer, reduce cravings, and support steady, sustainable weight loss.

Labs may be recommended or required depending on your health history and treatment plan. Labs help your provider evaluate safety, baseline health, and whether GLP-1 treatment is appropriate.

Yes, most GLP-1 medications are self-administered by injection. We provide education and instructions so you feel comfortable and confident.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer. Tirzepatide may be preferred for some clients seeking stronger appetite control, while semaglutide may be a great fit for others. Your provider will help determine the best option.
