Semaglutide has been the subject of clinical exploration in the fight against obesity and the evidence that it can indeed work has been very encouraging. Here’s a breakdown of the findings you mentioned:

 

Study 1: Significant Weight Loss

 

• • Average weight loss: Approximately 33.7 pounds

 

• • Duration: Over time (specific timeframe not mentioned)

 

• • Additional factors: Participants also made lifestyle changes

 

Study 2: Percentage of Body Weight Lost

 

• • Average weight loss: 15.8% of body weight

 

• • Duration: 68 weeks

 

These findings confirm that Semaglutide can serve as an effective weapon to battle weight when supported by lifestyle changes. The tremendous weight reduction that was evident in both trials signifies that the use of this medication may bring about even more positive changes in the health of people who are obese or dealing with weight issues.

 

The report did mention that some of the patients with diabetes were able to reverse it completely using the drug. Besides, the participants could bring their physical activity up to the U.S. Physical Activity Guidelines if they want to lower their diabetes risk due to their lifestyle.
