Everyone’s talking about GLP1’s like

The "Skinny Shot"

On average, people lose 15% of their weight in a year or less* with GLP1 Agonists.

But did you know that it does more than just help you lose weight?

GLP1’s were originally a therapy for Alzheimer’s and Dementia patients to prevent further decline (link). In fact, GLP1’s are a neuroprotectant that increases stem cell proliferation, which replaces cells affected by disease, and increases neurons (dendritic growth)(link).

When done right, weight loss is just a happy side effect.

Nevermind the incredible weight loss that often seems IMPOSSIBLE to lose, GLP-1 receptor agonists have shown potential in promoting longevity and anti-aging effects beyond their primary purposes. 

Research suggests these medications might have broader benefits beyond managing blood sugar levels and weight. They can positively impact cardiovascular health, reduce inflammation, and potentially slow down the aging process at a cellular level.

With this one peptide, you’re protecting your brain and your body from the effects of being overweight. Imagine your life without those extra 20-30 lbs. That you’re carrying 24/7. Multiply that by decades, and you will understand the wear and tear that excess weight causes to 
your health.

Myth #1

GLP1's will give you terrible nausea, vomiting, and heartburn

Verdict: Half Truth

When irresponsibly prescribed to patients, side effects can include extended bouts of nausea, vomiting, and heartburn.

However, the real shame is that these side effects can be managed, dampened, or even altogether mitigated with proper clinical guidance.

All it takes is the right prescription of GLP1, the right dose schedule, useful prebiotics, helpful supplements, and proper scheduling of your weekly injections.

Myth #2

GLP1's will cause you to lose muscle mass

Verdict: Half Truth

It is important to note that any significant weight loss will cause loss of muscle mass. This is a natural effect of losing a lot of weight.

However, when done right the opposite is actually true. GLP 1’s help muscle utilize glucose more efficiently, improving muscular structure and fibers (link).

By having a nutrition and exercise plan (Zone 1 & 2 training), we substitute the loss of weight and replace it with lean muscle, a key driving force for long term success with weight management, and most importantly, longevity.

Myth #3

GLP1's cause pancreatic cancer thyroid cancer, and other kinds of cancer

Verdict: Completely False.

There is ZERO evidence to support that GLP1’s (link) causes an increased risk of pancreatic cancer or other cancers. The thyroid cancer was in a rat model (link), and never evidenced in human trials. This Peptide simply doesn’t work on mechanism.

It’s not just about weight loss…
It’s about doing it right...
