Medically guided weight loss. Personalized care. Support that fits your life.
Weight loss can feel overwhelming. Conflicting advice. Short-term fixes. Little support. The Justlife GLP-1 Weight Loss Program changes that. This service combines clinically guided GLP-1 treatment with expert consultations, nutrition planning, and ongoing virtual care so you can move toward sustainable weight loss with confidence.
Understanding GLP-1 and Weight Loss
What Is GLP-1?
GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide-1. It is a hormone your body naturally produces after you eat. GLP-1 is released by cells in the intestine and specific neurons in the brainstem in response to food intake.
GLP-1 plays a key role in regulating blood sugar and appetite. Alongside another hormone called GIP, GLP-1 belongs to a group known as incretins. These hormones help the body manage blood glucose levels by stimulating insulin release when blood sugar rises after meals.
Because GLP-1 only triggers insulin release when blood sugar is elevated, it supports glucose balance without causing unnecessary drops in blood sugar. This mechanism is why GLP-1 has long been used in the management of Type 2 diabetes.
Naturally occurring GLP-1 breaks down very quickly. It has a short lifespan of only a few minutes due to rapid degradation by the enzyme DPP-4. GLP-1 medications are designed to overcome this limitation.
How GLP-1 Supports Weight Loss
GLP-1 medications mimic the effects of the body’s natural GLP-1 hormone. These medications were originally developed for diabetes care but are now widely used in medically guided weight loss programs.
Appetite Control and Satiety
GLP-1 medications work on the brain’s appetite centers. They reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness. This helps people eat less without constant cravings or food noise.
Slower Digestion
GLP-1 medications slow how quickly food leaves the stomach. This supports longer-lasting fullness after meals and helps regulate portion sizes naturally.
Clinically Proven Effectiveness
Clinical studies show that many individuals using GLP-1 medications achieve an average weight reduction of 10 percent to 15 percent within a year. Some formulations lead to even greater results. Even a 5% to 10% reduction in body weight is associated with meaningful improvements in metabolic health.
Combination GLP-1 therapies that act on multiple hormone pathways tend to produce stronger weight loss outcomes compared to single-action treatments.
Benefits and Safety Profile of GLP-1 Treatment
GLP-1 therapy offers benefits beyond weight loss.
Health benefits
-
Improved blood sugar regulation
-
Reduced strain on the cardiovascular system
-
Lower risk factors associated with heart disease and stroke
-
Support for kidney health in individuals with metabolic conditions
Common Side Effects
Most side effects are related to the digestive system and may include nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, headache, or abdominal discomfort. Nausea is the most common and often improves as the body adjusts to treatment.
Less Common But Serious Risks
Rare complications may include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, or kidney strain related to dehydration. The risk of low blood sugar is typically low unless GLP-1 medications are combined with other glucose-lowering treatments such as insulin.
Who Should Not Use GLP-1 Medications?
GLP-1 treatment is not recommended for individuals with a history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia, pancreatitis, or during pregnancy or breastfeeding. A medical consultation is required to assess eligibility.
Maximizing Results With Lifestyle Support
GLP-1 treatment works best when combined with structured lifestyle guidance. At Justlife, medication is only one part of the plan.
Nutrition Support With the MEAL Approach
-
Muscle Maintenance
Weight loss can include muscle loss if protein intake is insufficient. Aim for 1.0 to 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily. Start meals with 20 to 30 grams of protein from sources such as chicken, fish, beans, or protein shakes.
-
Energy Balance
Smaller meals and nutrient-dense snacks help maintain energy levels. Slowly digested carbohydrates and healthy fats support fullness and sustained energy.
-
Managing Side Effects
Limiting fried foods and spicy ingredients can reduce nausea or heartburn. Fiber intake and hydration support digestion and prevent constipation.
-
Hydration
Drink 2 to 3 liters of water daily to prevent dehydration and support overall health.
Movement and Activity
Gradual increases in activity support long term success. Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity weekly such as brisk walking, combined with strength training 2 to 3 times per week to maintain muscle mass.
