Medical Weight Loss
Medical weight loss is a safe and effective approach to successful weight loss and improved health.
It combines a patient-centered approach with evidence-based medical and lifestyle interventions to help people reach their weight loss goals.
Medical weight loss is designed to be sustainable and to provide long-term results. Medical weight loss aims to help individuals achieve and maintain a healthy weight safely and effectively.
At Dynamis Online, the process involves evaluating a patient’s current health and medical history, determining their individual needs and goals, and then working with the patient to produce a personalized weight loss program.
The program typically involves recommendations surrounding dieting, exercise, and medications.
Benefits of Medical Weight Loss
The benefits of medical weight loss are numerous. Not only can it help people reach their desired weight, but it can also improve overall health. Some of the most significant benefits include the following:
Improved health
One of the main benefits of medical weight loss is that it can help to improve overall health and well-being. Being overweight or obese is associated with various health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer. Losing weight can help to reduce the risk of these conditions and improve overall health.
Increased energy
Losing weight can also lead to increased energy levels. As you lose weight, your body becomes more efficient, and you may experience increased energy and vitality. When you carry excess weight, your body has to work harder to perform everyday tasks, which can lead to feelings of fatigue.
Improved mental health
Medical weight loss can also positively impact mental health. Being overweight or obese can lead to feelings of low self-esteem and depression, and losing weight can help to improve these feelings. Additionally, the process of losing weight can be empowering and can help to boost confidence and self-esteem.
Better sleep
Increased mobility
Carrying excess weight can make it more difficult to move and be physically active. As you lose weight, you may find it easier to move and participate in physical activities, which can improve mobility and flexibility.
Semaglutide
Semaglutide, an injectable drug already approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes, produced moderate weight loss at its dose of 1 milligram weekly.
Participants lost an average of 37 pounds through Semaglutide and diet changes. What this medicine does is help patients adhere to a reduced-calorie diet. It increases insulin secretion, which is good for diabetes. But at higher doses, it acts on centers in the brain and suppresses appetite. It is important to use this medication in conjunction with lifestyle intervention.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide (trade name Mounjaro) helps perform several critical bodily functions. It is a compound that mimics hormones called ‘glucagon-like peptide1’ or ‘GLP-1’.
This drug may help decrease food intake while also keeping metabolism steady. Studies on Tirezepatide for weight loss have shown that nearly 75% of clinical trial participants lost at least 15% of their body weight in 16 weeks. The drug is a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Agonists are drugs that activate receptors. In this case, GIP and GLP-1 regulate gut hormones called incretins, which help our bodies know when we feel full. It is an FDA-approved product for patients with Type 2 Diabetes, & off-label use for chronic obesity leading towards metabolic diseases.
Thermogenics
Thermogenics are a group of supplements and other substances that aim to increase metabolism to burn fat and produce energy.
Phentermine is one commonly used thermogenic that suppresses the appetite as it increases your body’s fat-burning rate. It also helps regulate blood sugar levels and can promote greater mental clarity.
Low Dose Naltrexone
Low-dose Naltrexone (LDN) has become increasingly popular for losing weight, with its use growing more widespread in recent years.
It’s a medication used since the mid-1980s to help treat opioid and alcohol dependence, but only recently has it been looked at for its potential effectiveness in helping people lose weight.
Low-dose Naltrexone (LDN) is a medication that is gaining popularity as a weight loss aid due to its ability to help reduce appetite, reduce cravings, and improve energy.
It works by blocking endorphins, the body’s natural pleasure-inducing chemicals, from binding to opioid receptors in the brain. This blockage can help reduce appetite and cravings and increase energy levels.
5-Amino-1MQ
5-Amino-1MQ is a small, selective, membrane permeable molecule that is an NNMT inhibitor. It is a great option for patients who are looking for weight loss alongside muscle gain!
- Weight Loss
- Lowers Cholesterol Levels
- Improves Blood Sugar Levels
- Fights Inflammation
- Enhanced Muscle Regeneration
5-Amino-1MQ reduces the production of NMNT in fat cells. This mechanism may shrink white adipose tissue and dramatically reduce weight loss. 5-Amino-1MQ targets and stimulates Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) activity. BAT is a critical player in fat cell metabolism and thermogenesis, responsible for the burning of fat cells to generate heat (this process is known as browning). 5-Amino-1MQ triggers the conversion of white fat cells into “beige” fat cells to enhance their ability to burn fat and promote weight loss. The “browning” effect aids in reduced weight gain, as well as contributing to the overall shrinkage of fat cells within the body’s fat tissue → thus, reducing fat stores. 5-Amino-1-MQ may also potentially enhance the basal metabolic rate through an increase in intracellular NAD+ levels, contributing to increase calorie burning and support weight loss.
Advanced Thermogenic (NMN)
NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is the precursor to NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide). NMN supplementation will increase intracellular levels of NAD+ and encourage the anti-aging benefits seen with NAD+, in addition to the benefits listed below. You may take NMN and NAD+ at the same time. It is suggested that you skip the NMN capsule on the day of your NAD+ injection.
- Produce Anti-Aging Effects
- Improve Cognitive Function
- Lower Cardiovascular Risk
- Improve Blood Sugar and Treat Diabetes Symptoms
- Fight Inflammation
- Improve Fertility
- Improve Eye Health
- Boost Immune Function
- Increase Energy Levels
- Promote Weight Loss
- Improve Liver Health
- Improve Kidney Health
This formulation is designed to provide a combination of thermogenic nutraceuticals to assist patients in their weight loss journey. This is a non-controlled, non-phentermine containing formula. The best thing about this weight loss product is it contains 50mg of pharmaceutical-grade NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) which has become increasingly popular in North America and Europe. The benefits of this treatment have been discussed on podcasts by Joe Rogan, The Huberman Lab, David Sinclair and other anti-aging sources.
Lipotropic Injections
Lipotropic injections, commonly known as “skinny shots,” are a type of injection used to help with weight loss.
The injections are made up of a combination of different vitamins and amino acids, which help to speed up the metabolism and break down fat cells. They are often combined with a healthy diet and exercise program to maximize the results.
Lipotropic injections increase the body’s ability to process fat by breaking down fat cells more quickly and efficiently. This means that more energy is available to be used by the body, thus allowing for more weight loss. The injections also help to reduce cholesterol levels and increase energy levels.
