Likewise, GLP-1RAs can lower postprandial glycemia predominantly by slowing gastric emptying and promoting weight loss [6, 7]

Benefits Significant, clinically proven weight loss Reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease Non-surgical, once-weekly injection Personalized dosing not a one-size-fits-all approach Physician-supervised by a board-certified plastic surgeon Built-in path to body contouring if needed after weight loss Best candidates for GLP-1 weight loss injections GLP-1 type medications are suitable for adults who: Have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity) Have a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related condition, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol
