What exactly are Peptides and how can they support my weight loss journey?
Peptides are tiny chains of amino acids, which are actually the fundamental building blocks of proteins. In the human body, these amino acids act as specific cellular signaling molecules, telling your organs, tissues and cells how to function, helping balance hormones and communicate with one another. Peptides can help with appetite suppression, blood sugar regulation, and overall metabolic and hormonal balance.
Which weight loss peptide do you offer and can you explain the benefits?
I offer Tirzepatide in my clinic. Tirzepatide is actually a GLP-2 using two receptors to signal your body to lose fat. Using GLP-1, which is a hormone produced in your large intestine, signals your body to feel full and say, “I’m not hungry.” Tirzepatide also uses GIP, which is a hormone produced in your small intestine, signaling your body to say, “Let’s burn up this stored fat!”
What are the benefits of being on a ShiftSetGo protocol along with the Tirzepatide?
ShiftSetGo products have the purest and most bioavailable protein on the market. This means the protein in the products is 99.9% absorbed in your body, which is the only way your muscle (lean) mass can be protected. When you are on a 100% protocol with the ShiftSetGo products, your insulin levels drop really low and your glucagon levels rise really high. This is when the fat is getting depleted. Due to your high levels of glucagon, this becomes your third receptor to burn fat. Therefore, using Tirzepatide along with the ShiftSetGo protocol actually becomes a GLP-3 (using all three receptors), plus you are getting the benefits of saving your muscle (lean mass).
Do I have to stay on peptides forever to maintain my weight loss?
No. You can complete a four-, eight- or 12-week session of peptides, then cycle off for a while and, if need be, do another four weeks. Another benefit of completing the ShiftSetGo protocol is that you will actually teach your body what to crave and learn how much protein, how many healthy fats, and how many complex carbs to consume each day to help maintain your weight.
Is there a solution if I am afraid of doing shots?
YES! ShiftSetGo offers the “Daily Trim.” This is a combination of three supplements that help produce your own GLP-1s naturally. These supplements help stimulate insulin to lower blood sugar, help reduce your appetite, help with digestion, and also help with burning fat while your body is at rest.
