Wegovy® the brand name for Semaglutide, a type of medication called GLP-1s. GLP-1s are a class of medical treatments for weight loss and diabetes. They mimic the GLP-1 hormone that is naturally released in the gastrointestinal tract in response to eating.


The active ingredient in Wegovy®, Semaglutide has been linked to deliver:

  • Less hunger
  • Fewer food cravings
  • Better control of eating 
  • Reduced preference for high-fat foods

All this can lead to eating fewer calories and as a result, significant weight loss.


A 2021 study conducted with almost 2,000 adults without diabetes, showed that after 68 weeks, participants taking a weekly Semaglutide injection lost an average of almost 15% of their body weight. This was alongside some lifestyle changes, like improving their diet and getting regular physical activity. [1]
