How GLP-1 Medications Actually Help You Lose Fat

GLP-1 receptor agonists mimic a hormone your gut releases after eating. You feel full sooner, stay full longer, and your blood sugar stays steadier — which is why patients on GLP-1 therapy tend to eat less without white-knuckling it.

Where the weight actually comes from

A scale can't tell fat from muscle. In rapid weight loss, up to a quarter of what you lose can be lean mass unless you protect it. That's why every Dexaslim plan starts with a DEXA baseline.

How DEXA changes the plan

Your scan shows regional fat, visceral fat, lean mass, and bone density. Your provider uses those numbers to adjust dosing, add resistance training, or layer in Sermorelin when lean mass is slipping.

Lose fat, not muscle. The scan is how we prove it.
