Weight Loss Medications
Our program challenges conventional wisdom about weight loss and views excessive weight as a medical condition requiring medical attention. This program has been researched since 1980 and involves the use of FDA approved medications – which are all fully endorsed. Most people have little or no side effects. They actually enhance the body’s natural inclination to lose weight and healthy.
Semaglutide
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide for weight loss is an injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist that’s administered once weekly. It was originally approved in 2017 — at a lower dose under the brand name Ozempic — to help control blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes. People taking Ozempic for blood sugar control also tend to lose weight as an additional benefit.
Because of this, Novo Nordisk studied the medication in people without Type 2 diabetes, but at a higher dose. Now, Semaglutide injection (under the brand name Wegovy) is FDA-approved for weight loss. Semaglutide should be used in combination with lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and exercise.
How does Semaglutide work for weight loss?
GLP-1 is an incretin hormone that plays a role in your appetite and digestion. Incretins — hormones released by your digestive tract — are sent out by your body after you’ve eaten a meal. They help lower your blood sugar by triggering insulin release and blocking sugar production. They also slow down how quickly food leaves your stomach (called gastric emptying). The result of these actions causes you to feel full = lowering your appetite and aiding you in losing weight. Medications like GLP-1 agonists are referred to as incretin mimetics since they “mimic” these effects. As mentioned above, GLP-1 agonists, like Semaglutide, were originally used to treat Type 2 diabetes. However, the weight loss side effect has been shown to benefit people without Type 2 diabetes as well.
Tirzepatide
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is an injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 and Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GLP-1/ GIP) receptor agonist that’s administered once weekly. It was originally approved in 2017 — at a lower dose under the brand name Mounjaro — to help control blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes. People taking Mounjaro for blood sugar control also tend to lose weight as an additional benefit. Now, Tirzepatide (Monograph) is FDA-approved for weight loss.
Tirzepatide should be used in combination with lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and exercise.

GLP-1 & GIP is an incretin hormone that plays a role in your appetite and digestion. Incretins — hormones released by your digestive tract — are sent out by your body after you’ve eaten a meal. They help lower your blood sugar by triggering insulin release and blocking sugar production. They also slow down how quickly food leaves your stomach (called gastric emptying). The result of these actions causes you to feel full = lowering your appetite and aiding you in losing weight. Medications like GLP-1 agonists are referred to as incretin mimetics since they “mimic” these effects. As mentioned above, GLP-1 agonists, like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, were originally used to treat Type 2 diabetes. However, the weight loss side effect has been shown to benefit people without Type 2 diabetes as well.
Hcg (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin)
HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, which is a natural hormone that activates the hypothalamus gland and causes your body to use your stored fat for energy. This all-natural hormone is safe and effective for weight loss, with no stimulants to make you feel nervous or jittery.
HCG targets the adipose fat (stubborn fat), so patients can lose from 15 up to 25 lbs in a month with a low calorie diet. Works fast & naturally reduces hunger. Available in insulin injections.
Hydrochlorathiazide 25mg (Hctz)
Diuretic hydrochlorothiazide is designed to help eliminate excess fluid retention and swelling. It can also treat high blood pressure.
Disclaimer: Patients who are currently taking HCTZ will not qualify for a prescription water pill.
Methylcobalamin (B12)
Methylcobalamin 3mg is considered the most potent form of Vitamin B12 found in nature and the only active form of Vitamin B-12 in the brain outside the mitochondria. We need methylcobalamin for the healthy development and sustenance of our circulatory, immune and nervous systems.
MICC
MICC Each of these ingredients helps the body turn into energy and are also powerful antioxidants. MICC injections are often used in weight loss regimens as well as to promote healthy cell function and increased energy.
Active Ingredients:
Methionine 25mg: amino acid that supports liver detoxification, liver fat metabolism, and energy production*
Inositol 50mg: supports overall relaxation and helps maintain the proper metabolism of serotonin. It is used for nutritional support of brain wellness and hormonal health through its role in healthy liver function. It may also aid in attaining a restful night’s sleep.
Choline 50mg: Healthy nerve cells, cuts muscle recovery time, helps convert fat to energy
Cyanocobalamin (B12): Energy, healthy nerve cells.
Lipo-Max
Lipo-Max is a lipotropic fat-burning combination to help the body speed up weight loss. It also contains a mixture of B vitamins which further help to facilitate fat loss and increase energy. Along with powerful antioxidants.
The formula is then completed by adding ingredients to reduce appetite, build muscle and promote a healthy immune system.
Active Ingredients:
Pyridoxine (B6) 2mg: Promotes red blood cell production and converts food to energy.
Methionine12.4mg: Helps break down sugars & carbohydrates and convert to energy.
Inositol 25mg: Converts food to energy.
Choline 25mg: Healthy nerve cells, cuts muscle recovery time, helps convert fat to energy
B12 1mg: Energy, healthy nerve cells.
Thiamine (B1) 50mg: Improves immune system, helps convert fat and carbohydrates into energy
Riboflavin (B2): Increases metabolism, supports the immune system
L-Carnitine 125mg: Improves fat metabolism and energy, reduces recovery times and promotes muscle building potential.
B Complex
(B1) Thiamine 75mg: The body needs thiamine to make adenosine (ATP). This is a molecule that transports energy within cells.
(B2) Riboflavin 2mg:, breaks down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. You may experience an energy boost.
(B3) Niacin 75mg: helps lower cholesterol, ease arthritis and boost brain function, among other benefits.
(B5) Pantothenic acid 2mg: healthy skin, hair, and eyes.
- Proper functioning of the nervous system and liver.
- Healthy digestive tract.
- Creates red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body.
- Creates sex and stress-related hormones in the adrenal glands.
(B6) Pyridoxine 2mg: lays an important role in mood regulation. This is partly because this vitamin is necessary for creating neurotransmitters that regulate emotions, including serotonin, dopamine and
gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)
Lipo-Shred (L-Carnitine 500mg)
- Boosts Athletic Performance
- Facilitates Weight Loss and Fat Burning
- Minimizes Muscle Damage
- Boosts Brain Function and Slows Aging
- All while helping your cardiovascular health!
Taurine Boost
- Taurine is used for energy production.
- Taurine helps the body process bile acid and balance fluids, salts and minerals, among other actions.
- Taurine is an amino acid that increases glycine and GABA to calm the brain. It also protects the brain by reducing the harmful effects of excess glutamate.
Many individuals believe taurine is a stimulant, much like caffeine – but the truth is that it isn’t. In fact, it’s just the opposite, as the ingredient is added to popular energy drinks as a nervous system depressant and just has a stimulating effect on the brain.
Attaining Your Weight Loss
Objectives are Certainly Achievable!
Weight loss goals are achievable beyond just diet and exercise. The challenge lies in Insulin Resistance, often overlooked by the diet industry. Adjusting insulin levels naturally aids weight loss—making your goals truly achievable.
