Do These Treatments Get Rid of Belly Fat?
​Scientists found these treatments improved body composition by reducing excess body fat, including abdominal fat, and increasing the proportion of lean body mass, or the amount of weight someone carries that is not body fat. The more body weight a participant lost, the greater the improvement in body composition.​
​
Why Peptides for Weight Loss?
Originally developed as a treatment for type 2 diabetes, semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide have found a niche helping people with weight-related medical problems rapidly lose weight. It does this in three ways:
-
The GLP-1 hormone present in the medication slows down how fast your stomach moves food through, which makes you feel fuller longer and discourages binge eating.
-
The hormone prevents the liver from releasing sugar into the bloodstream, which would otherwise contribute to fat buildup.
-
Semaglutide stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin, reducing blood sugar still more.
When used for treating stubborn weightloss, these peptides should always be paired with improved diet and a regular healthy exercise program.
