Semaglutide is a powerful GLP-1 receptor agonist and works by mimicking the natural actions of GLP-1 in the body. The medication binds to the GLP-1 receptors in the gut, activating them and signaling to the brain that the body has had enough to eat, which helps to reduce the feeling of hunger and increase feelings of fullness, making it easier to stick to a healthy eating plan and consume fewer calories. In addition to suppressing appetite, Semaglutide also slows down the digestive process, delaying the emptying of the stomach. This means that food stays in the digestive tract for longer periods of time, which helps to decrease cravings for high-calorie foods while also allowing for better nutrient absorption. In addition to this, Semaglutide helps with weight loss by improving insulin sensitivity. When insulin resistance occurs, the body becomes less efficient at using sugar for energy, which can lead to weight gain. Semaglutide can help improve insulin resistance by making it easier to burn stored fat, resulting in weight loss.
