Read More »Ozempic® (semaglutide): It’s one of several GLP-1 medications that are best known for their ability to help patients with type 2 diabetes control blood sugar—but the drug is also effective in helping those with obesity or overweight improve their metabolic health and lose weight. Like any medication, Ozempic® (the brand name for semaglutide) produces slightly different results from one person to the next. No two people have the same exact biology. That, along with the fact that all patients taking Ozempic® will have a different starting point and a completely unique genetic and health history profile, means that it’s virtually impossible to predict how long it will take you to lose weight on the medication. Clinical trials of semaglutide, however, provide some high-level information and context on the timeline on which prescribing healthcare professionals can expect to see results in their patients. Read on to learn more about how Ozempic® works, how it’s dosed, and whether or not it might be a good fit for your needs.

Read More »The STEP-2 study found that semaglutide helped participants lose about 10% of their body weight after 68 weeks. The STEP-2 study was done in people with type 2 diabetes and the dose used was semaglutide 2.4mg weekly. It’s important to note that the outcome of these clinical trials was influenced by the fact that study participants were supported by the research team with lifestyle changes including dietary modifications and exercise recommendations. Simply taking the medication without simultaneously working to improve your day-to-day routine will not produce the same results. Below, we’ll explain why the Calibrate Metabolic Reset is uniquely positioned to set up its members for success on GLP-1 medication by providing 1:1 accountability coaching and a science-backed curriculum to empower you to make lasting changes. With Calibrate, members can expect to start seeing results after a couple of weeks of tapering up on the medication. You’ll likely notice some changes in appetite and reductions in food cravings within the first week.

Read More »GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is one such incretin hormone, but it does more than just influence satiety: It also plays an important role in the management of blood sugar levels and can lower blood sugar and reduce A1C in people living with impaired glucose tolerance, prediabetes, or diabetes. As a GLP-1 receptor agonist , Ozempic® works by imitating the effects of the GLP-1 hormone produced naturally in your body. In those with type-2 diabetes or those living with overweight or obesity, natural GLP-1 production may be lower or less effective than normal. By injecting Ozempic® once weekly under the care of a physician, blood glucose levels are more easily controlled. Like other GLP-1s—such as Mounjaro, Saxenda®, Wegovy®, Trulicity®, and Rybelsus®—Ozempic® is a medication that makes it easier to lose weight and stick to healthy habits. However, it’s not a “weight loss drug” on its own: It must be used in combination with other tactics to support metabolic health and avoid weight regain. These tactics may include modifications to what you eat, how and when you exercise, and other healthy lifestyle changes. Calibrate’s Metabolic Reset combines GLP-1 medication with evidence-based lifestyle recommendations—the Four Pillars of Metabolic Health—to help participants maximize their success with Ozempic®. These pillars include:
