Weight loss and weight management is not easy!

Eating right and exercising is sometimes not enough, especially as we age.

If you have been looking for a better way to lose weight, here it is!

Tirzepatide is a medication used to help control blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes, but studies suggest that it may also help people without diabetes lose weight. Tirzepatide has been labeled as a weight loss “game changer,” by medical researchers.


Tirzepatide is administered as a weekly injection at AyaFusion Wellness Clinic. Tirzepatide is a once-weekly GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptor and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist, representing a new class of medicines studied for the treatment of obesity. Tirzepatide is a single peptide that triggers the body's receptors for GIP and GLP-1, two natural incretin hormones.

By blocking receptors within the stomach lining, Tirzepatide slows the emptying of the stomach.  When the stomach empties more slowly, the brain receives a signal that it is full. This reduces your appetite and reduces your desire to eat, which is necessary for weight loss. Tirzepatide allows you to lose weight slowly and safely, so the weight stays off. 


Tirzepatide mimics two hormones naturally produced in the body: glucagon-like peptide-1, or GLP-1, and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide. and Wegovy simulate only GLP-1, whereas Tirzepatide imitates both hormones. Researchers believe Tirzepatide may be so effective at lowering blood sugar levels and inducing weight loss because the two hormones it imitates work in a synergistic way. Due to its unique dual activity, Tirzepatide has shown about 50% better weight loss than Wegovy™


This medication combines powerful GLP-1 blocker effects with GIP effects. This medication works similar to a GLP-1 standalone, but the addition of a GIP gives it additional weight-loss power. According to clinical studies, participants lost 23% of their body weight with fewer side effects, providing weight loss results that are comparable to bariatric surgery.
