Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are generic names for Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and other weight loss medications. One major issue is the question of whether you can wean yourself off the medications.
In May 2024, the Novo Nordisk company presented long-term data at the European Congress on Obesity. What did they find?
“Patients taking Wegovy obesity treatment maintained an average of 10% weight loss after four years.”
Furthermore:
- Weight loss continued to week 68 of use
- Sustained by week 208
- They lost and KEPT OFF an average of 10.2% of their weight and 3 inches off their waist
- Weight loss was smaller for participants with a BMI lower than 30
Is Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Effective?
We at Biohackr Health know that semaglutide and tirzepatide work. We have seen it in hundreds of patients now. We want to help you lose the weight and keep it off. There are things you can do to help:
- NAD+ or NMN (our oral supplement NAD precursor). Are you deficient? NAD is related to mitochondria, the powerhouse of your cells. We have an NAD test to find your baseline, an excellent way to determine how much to supplement and help you sustain your weight loss (and other bonuses!)
- Probiotic. Gut health is important. Our probiotic is cost effective and contains Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, which is shown to help with insulin resistance (one of the ways semaglutdie is thought to help with weight loss). Ours also has ingredients which help promote digestion.
- InBody scan. When you lose weight, is it muscle or fat? Where are you now? We do this scan monthly with our semaglutide and tirzepatide regimens. It is invaluable to know so you can target muscle growth — particularly as you age, maintaining muscle is important.
- Hormones. In your 50s? Hormones have a huge impact on weight loss and muscle maintenance as you age for men and women. Know your levels. We do testing and treatments.
Test. Know your levels. Treat. Everyone is different and we approach this scientifically. See what works for you and where you have issues.
Optimize you. It’s the Biohackr Health way.
