Health and Wellness
How healthy you are is directly related to how well you look. We’ve all had the experience of running into a friend or family member who is not feeling well. Before you say a word to them you can tell something is wrong. How did you know they were sick? They looked pale, their hair was a mess and their eyes looked like they haven’t slept in days! Fighting chronic illness wears you down and forces your body to focus on more serious concerns than how you present yourself to others. Taking care of your health is crucial to helping your skin, hair, eyes and overall appearance, look as good as you can.
The providers at Arizona Beauty Lab have been in the medical industry for years. They have provided care that helps you regain your health. When you feel your best you will have the energy to work out, have fun and enjoy life.
In addition to services provided in the infusion and regenerative therapy sections of our website, we offer a few more things to help you live healthier and to feel your best.
Semaglutide Weightloss
The struggle is real when it comes to weight loss. Even the best intentions and commitments to diet and exercise fail, but why? Hormonal, psychological, and physical issues are all contributing factors against losing weight. For these reasons many lose hope or give up trying, but a new game changing medication has given people their hope and health back.
The success of Semaglutide, a GLP1-peptide, has been spreading like wildfire, but what is it? We’re going to break it down for you, and explain how the medication works and how it’s prescribed.
Semaglutide is a Glucagon-Like-Peptide-1. Peptides are short-chain amino acids found naturally in the body. This particular GLP-1 peptide hormone is produced in the small intestine. It increases the body’s ability to produce insulin, inhibits glucagon, and decreases appetite, resulting in healthy and effective weight loss. It is self administered as a small subcutaneous injection which is injected into the subcutaneous fat weekly.
The result is rapid weight loss typically in the 10lb a month range and many lose more. The more weight there is to lose, the faster it comes off. It typically does plateau if there is only 10lbs left to lose. When you have reached your goal weight it is recommended to stay on the medication for a few more months to help maintain your weight. At this point we may want to look at hormonal levels to make sure your hormones are not working against you to risk gaining the weight back.
B12 Injections
Monthly B12 injections are amazing to help you get the energy you need to tackle your day. Everyone is busy and sometimes you need a little boost to increase energy to finish the day strong. B12 is an easy way to provide the essential energy your body needs to keep going.
You’ve tried dieting. Most of the time it works well when you are motivated. However, when you hit your goal and stop the diet the weight comes right back on including a few extra pounds you didn’t have before!
At Arizona Beauty Lab we help people understand the difference between a fad diet and lifestyle changes that make a long-term difference. The providers have helped hundreds of patients lose weight with an “anti-inflammatory” lifestyle. Many of the foods we eat are nutritious but cause inflammation. These foods are like tomatoes and other peppers, dairy products like milk and yogurt. Although they have some nutritional value, they cause massive amounts of inflammation that wreak havoc on your body’s ability to lose weight.
If you are interested in learning more about our anti-inflammatory diet, please schedule a consultation to speak with one of our amazing providers.
