VIAL ONLY
X4 needles X4 swabs included
Mounjaro is a dual agonist that mimics the action of two natural hormones, called incretins, in the body:
• Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)
• Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)
By activating the receptors for both of these hormones, Mounjaro promotes weight loss through several combined actions:
1. Reduces Appetite and Increases Fullness (Satiety):
• It signals to the appetite control centers in the brain that you are full, leading to reduced hunger and fewer food cravings.
• It slows down the rate at which your stomach empties (gastric emptying), helping you feel fuller for a longer period of time after eating.
• These effects lead to a lower overall calorie intake, which is the key driver of weight loss.
2. Improves Metabolism and Blood Sugar Control:
• It enhances the body's sensitivity to insulin, making your cells (in muscle, fat, and liver) more effective at taking sugar from your blood.
• It helps the body to produce more insulin when needed and reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver.
• The GIP component may also aid in the breakdown of fat stores and potentially enhance metabolism, contributing to greater weight loss.
