Peptide Therapy:

Peptides For Weight Loss. What You Need To Know

You’re tired of being overweight, and now you’re teetering toward actual ‘obesity’. You’ve tried everything. You’ve been dieting as long as you can remember and nothing happens. You starve yourself, exercise to exhaustion, lose some pounds and gain them back. No matter what you do, your ‘tummy’ is still there. You know you’re not alone. There are well over 50,000 book titles on Amazon when you insert ‘diet’ in the search engine. Diet pills, prescription or not, give no lasting benefit.


And now you see articles and TV ads for the new semaglutide peptides (Wegovy, Trulicity, Mounjaro, Ozempic). These look good. Really simple, once weekly injections, originally FDA approved for Type 2 (adult onset) diabetes, had a marvelous additional benefit: users of the semaglutides lost weight.


And then, when the FDA approved one of them for obesity (Wegovy), everyone wanted it. Not surprisingly, Big Pharma priced the semaglutides quite high (Wegovy et. al are $1,300 a month without insurance). The insurance companies, fully aware that 70% of Americans are overweight and 42% are obese, took one look at these prices and pressed the denial button every time a doctor wrote the prescription for a semaglutide when prescribed for obesity. The meds are covered for diabetes only after other therapies have been shown to fail.


Nevertheless, there are national shortages of weight loss peptides, reminding you there are no shortages of rich overweight people for whom $15,000 a year to become and remain svelte is considered a good investment.

Peptide Therapy

Peptide Therapy is an innovative medical science that uses precise amino acid sequences, which are called “peptides”. When these peptides are appropriately administered, they communicate with different parts of the body and can enhance the function of the whole body. They do this by binding to receptors on the cell surface and signal optimum messages for health improvement.
