What is peptide therapy and what does it have to do with weight-loss? What role do peptides play in improving chronic conditions, anti-aging, and longevity? Gabriella Woldman is the Director of operations and the Patient care coordinator for Alegro Health & Wellness, who is here to answer these questions, and more, on today's episode of Food Heals.
Peptides are short-chain amino acids found naturally in the body. The GLP-1 peptide hormone that we are talking about today is produced in the small intestine. It increases the body's ability to produce insulin, inhibits glucagon, and decreases appetite, resulting in healthy and effective weight loss. It is self administered as a small subcutaneous injection which is injected into the subcutaneous fat weekly.
Peptide therapy has been shown to assist patients with losing weight, reducing chronic pain, improving immune function, hormone regulation, cardiovascular health, and so much more.
Today we are specifically speaking about Semaglutide and B-12 which is what Allison has been taking to lose 16 pounds in 9 weeks. We are not discussing Wegovy or Ozempic which are the brand names of this peptide. Allison has not tried those and cannot speak to their side effects, nor effectiveness.
