Exploring Beyond Numeric Weight Loss: The Metabolic Effects of Semaglutide. by Sara, Sokary

“…Studies have shown that semaglutide reduced fat mass, particularly visceral fat, while preserving lean muscle mass, as the proportion relative to total body mass decreased by 3.5% and 2.0% for total and visceral fat mass, respectively, while it increased by 3.0% for lean body mass. Also, it enhanced glycemic control, as evidenced by significant reductions in hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) with the 0.5 mg and 1.0 mg doses. …”
