Wellness Shot
Weekly injections under physician supervision — package required

At a glance
A plain description of what is in the bag and what happens while you are here.
GLP-1 receptor agonism affects insulin secretion, glucagon, gastric emptying and hypothalamic appetite circuits.
Unlike most things in the wellness field, this medication has large randomised trials behind it.
Evaluation, titration and monitoring by a prescriber.
One injection per week rather than a daily regimen.
The science
We would rather tell you where the evidence is strong, where it is thin, and where it simply does not exist yet.
Semaglutide is an incretin mimetic: it augments glucose-dependent insulin secretion, suppresses inappropriate glucagon, slows gastric emptying, and acts on hypothalamic appetite circuits to reduce hunger and food intake.
In 1,961 adults with overweight or obesity without diabetes, over 68 weeks on 2.4mg weekly plus lifestyle intervention, mean weight change was -14.9% versus -2.4% for placebo. Roughly 69-79% achieved at least 10% loss and 51-64% achieved at least 15%, against 12-27% and 5-13% on placebo.
Nausea 44.2%, diarrhoea 31.5%, vomiting 24.8%, constipation 23.4%. GI events led to discontinuation in 4.5% versus 0.8% on placebo. Titration exists specifically to manage this.
Weight regain is typical after discontinuation, so this is best understood as ongoing therapy rather than a course you complete. Serious risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder disease and reported vision changes.
Who commonly considers this: Adults with obesity, or with overweight plus a weight-related condition, who qualify after medical evaluation.
