Everyone is reaching for a GLP — but here are my favorite peptides for fat loss, and what most people don't know.
GLP-based medications help suppress appetite and support fat loss. But real body composition comes from preserving lean muscle mass and improving your metabolism. My two favorites for this:
- Ipamorelin — helps improve your growth hormone levels and increase lean muscle mass.
- Tesamorelin — helps decrease visceral fat, the fat around your organs, which is the most harmful.
It's not just about losing weight — it's about building a healthier body. GLPs have their place, but if stubborn fat is what you want to improve, you need to lose fat and build muscle at the same time. That's what drives a total body recomposition — and these are the conversations to have with your provider.
