Semaglutide is an innovative hormone therapy transforming lives in Fairbanks North Star Borough and beyond. As a leading hormone clinic, Vivo Health provides cutting-edge semaglutide treatments to help patients lose weight, regulate blood sugar, lower cholesterol, and improve overall health.
Semaglutide is an glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist that regulates appetite and calorie intake. Originally approved for type 2 diabetes treatment, semaglutide has remarkable efficacy for chronic weight management. In 2021, the FDA approved semaglutide for weight loss in patients with obesity or overweight.
Vivo Health offers customized semaglutide protocols to help patients achieve their weight goals. Semaglutide suppresses appetite, slows digestion, reduces cravings, and increases insulin sensitivity to facilitate weight reduction.
Vivo Health carefully evaluates each individual to determine the optimal semaglutide type, dosage, timing, and delivery method. We offer pharmaceutical injections as well as compounded semaglutide formulas as pills, IV, topical creams and more.
Our protocols include nutrition optimization, movement strategies, complementary therapies, and lifestyle adjustments. We closely monitor biomarkers to refine treatment plans and address the mind-body connection.
