Crazy diets, fluctuating weight, and endless exercise is not the best way to achieve weight loss. All physicians will tell you that a healthy diet (what you eat, not a specific “diet”) and exercise are always the keys to weight loss. However, there are some effective treatments available on today’s market that can help encourage weight loss, along with a healthy diet and exercise. Peptide therapy is receiving serious attention as an alternative way to help with weight loss.
Peptide therapy consists of weekly injections of peptides. There are different types of peptide injections used for different purposes. For weight loss, tirzepatide and semaglutide are the two peptides to consider. Combined with a healthy diet and exercise, these have shown to effectively help overweight and obese people lose weight.
This article will take a look at peptide therapy. It will specifically dive deeper into tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss. Tirzepatide is known on the market as Zepbound, and semaglutide is known as Wegovy. Let’s examine peptide therapy to see if it’s a good option for you.
What Is Peptide Therapy?
Peptides are the building blocks of proteins, so they exist naturally within your body. Peptides have various jobs within your body as they help to regulate various biological functions and processes. You are probably familiar with insulin, or you have at least heard of it as it relates to diabetes. Insulin is a peptide. It is when the pancreas doesn’t produce the proper amount of insulin that diabetes can occur. Insulin is just one of many peptides in your body.
Peptide therapy is the use of peptides to elicit a change for the better within your body. Peptides can be used for muscle recovery, hair loss, bone loss, weight loss, and more. Because peptides are produced naturally in your body already, serious side effects are not generally reported from peptide medications. For the purposes of this article, we will be looking at peptide therapy for weight loss. Tirzepatide (Zepbound) and semaglutide (Wegovy) are two peptides currently being used to help with weight loss.
Tirzepatide and Semaglutide for Weight Loss
Tirzepatide is known as Zepbound. It was already in use to help Type 2 diabetic adults regulate their blood sugar. In 2021, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Tirzepatide for weight loss use for those who are overweight or obese and experiencing at least one weight-related health issue.
Semaglutide is known as Wegovy. Ozempic and Rybelsus are also semaglutide, but only Wegovy has been approved by the FDA for weight loss purposes. Often drugs that are developed for one use have added benefits. All three of these drugs were initially used for treating Type 2 diabetic patients. Because Ozempic and Rybelsus may have the same weight loss effects as Wegovy, many people are using them for this purpose.There have been cases of counterfeit Ozempic, so we want to stress that it is important to receive your medications from a physician. Counterfeit drugs are dangerous, and may not even contain the proper medication. Using drugs for the purposes approved by the FDA under the care of a physician is the smartest and safest course of action.
