    Understanding Your Body with InBody Scans

    What is an InBody scan?

    An InBody scan is a body composition analysis that measures more than just weight. It provides a detailed breakdown of your muscle mass, fat percentage, and water weight. This information helps Dr. Addison create a personalized program that targets your specific body composition for efficient weight loss.

    Creating a Personalized Diet Plan

    There's no one-size-fits-all diet for weight loss. Dr. Addison will work with you to develop a personalized dietary plan that considers your preferences, lifestyle, and medical history. This plan focuses on whole, unprocessed foods that nourish your body and promote healthy eating habits.

    Introducing Tirzepetide

    In some cases, Dr. Addison may recommend tirzepetide injections as part of your weight loss plan. Tirzepatide is a medication developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes that has also been approved for weight loss. It is a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, which means it acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors to help control blood sugar levels.

    How Tirzepatide Works

    • Weight Loss: Tirzepatide tackles weight loss in two ways:
    • Reduced Appetite: It works by curbing your appetite, making you feel fuller for longer and potentially leading to decreased calorie intake.
    • Slower Digestion: It slows down the movement of food from your stomach to your small intestine, allowing your body to absorb nutrients more gradually and potentially increasing feelings of fullness.
    • Type 2 Diabetes: In managing type 2 diabetes, tirzepatide targets blood sugar levels by:
    • Boosting Insulin Production: It stimulates your pancreas to produce more insulin, a hormone crucial for regulating blood sugar.
    • Lowering Liver Sugar Production: It helps regulate the amount of sugar your liver produces, contributing to overall blood sugar control.
    • Administration: Tirzepatide is a convenient once-weekly injection delivered under the skin.
    • Mechanism of Action: Tirzepatide is classified as a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, meaning it mimics the effects of two natural gut hormones involved in appetite control and blood sugar regulation.
