Debunking Myths About Semaglutide
Despite the hype around semaglutide, some misconceptions still prevail. Let's clarify them:
Myth: Semaglutide is just another weight loss fad
Fact: Unlike restrictive diets, semaglutide brings about measured, sustainable fat loss by acting at a hormonal level. Effects persist long-term with continued use.
Myth: It causes risky heartbeat changes
Fact: While a small transient rise in heart rate can occur initially, studies show semaglutide reduces cardiovascular risk over time by improving underlying metabolic issues.
Myth: The weight comes back once you stop injections
Fact: While semaglutide discontinuation may slow metabolic rate, the lifestyle habits built over months of treatment ensure weight regain is unlikely. Maintenance dosing may be implemented.
