What are Weight Loss Injections?
Weight loss injections are a medical treatment designed to assist with weight management by regulating appetite, boosting metabolism, and improving insulin sensitivity. These injections typically contain active ingredients such as GLP-1 receptor agonists or other medications aimed at influencing the hormones that control hunger and fat storage in the body. The injections work by sending signals to your brain to reduce hunger and help you feel fuller for longer, thereby reducing calorie intake.
At MNJ Medical we specialise in the prescribing of Mounjaro (Tirzepatide).
These treatments are typically used in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular physical activity, making them a powerful tool to help you achieve sustainable weight loss. With regular use, weight loss injections can assist in not just losing weight but in maintaining a healthy weight for the long term.
What is Mounjaro (Tirzepatide)?
Mounjaro is a MHRA-approved medication, recently made available in the UK, originally developed to manage type 2 diabetes. However, it has shown promising results for weight loss, making it an increasingly popular choice for individuals struggling to lose weight. The active ingredient, tirzepatide, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which works by targeting the hormones that regulate hunger and insulin production in your body.
Mounjaro helps reduce appetite, making it easier to eat less, and also improves fat metabolism, leading to sustainable weight loss. Clinical trials have shown that Mounjaro can support significant weight loss when used alongside a healthy diet and exercise regime.
How Mounjaro Works
Mounjaro works by mimicking the action of natural hormones in the body that control blood sugar and appetite. The active ingredient, tirzepatide, works in two ways to support weight loss:
Appetite Control: Mounjaro slows down the emptying of the stomach, which helps you feel fuller for longer, reducing the temptation to snack or overeat.
Improved Metabolism: It enhances the body’s ability to use insulin, which helps with fat burning and encourages the efficient use of energy, aiding weight loss.
Administered as a weekly injection, Mounjaro is easy to use, and our team at MNJ Medical will guide you through the process and monitor your progress to ensure you achieve the best results.
Benefits of Mounjaro for Weight Loss
Significant Weight Loss: Clinical studies have shown that Mounjaro can result in significant weight loss for individuals with a BMI over 30 or those with weight-related health conditions.
Appetite Control: The treatment helps to reduce hunger, making it easier to manage portion sizes and resist cravings, without feeling deprived.
Sustainable Long-Term Results: Mounjaro not only helps with initial weight loss but also supports long-term weight management, promoting healthier habits and improved metabolism.
Convenient and Easy to Use: Mounjaro is administered as a weekly injection, making it simple to incorporate into your routine. You don’t need to visit the clinic frequently, giving you the flexibility to manage your weight loss on your own terms.
