In 2021, a *study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, demonstrated weight loss of approximately 15% of the participants starting weight over the course of 68 weeks with once, weekly injections of Semaglutide
Unlike some drugs that primarily focus on suppressing appetite or blocking nutrient absorption, semaglutide takes a more holistic approach by addressing the underlying hormonal and metabolic factors that contribute to weight gain
New skin cells form continuously, which means improvements require maintenance to sustain
In the SELECT trial, participants using semaglutide consumed approximately 2,700 fewer calories per week without feeling deprived, indicating that appetite suppression rather than willpower alone drives the weight loss
