Maintaining a healthy weight is one of the most important and self-care choices you can make for your mental and physical health and well-being. In recent years we have discovered weight loss with the help of GLP-1 medications this drug class has delivered dramatic and immediate results. For a more holistic and improved approach, designed to work alongside a healthy diet and exercise, we also offer Lipotropic (MIC) weight loss injections. MIC injections consist of Methionine, Inositol and Choline.
MIC shots are a combination of nutrients that can help break down fat, boost energy, and support weight loss. The nutrients in MIC shots include:
- Methionine: An amino acid that helps maintain protein balance and muscle tissue. This essential amino acid helps break down fat and reduces fat buildup in the liver, supports detoxification by aiding in the removal of heavy metals from the body, and finally, aids in the production of Glutathione in the liver (Glutathione is the most powerful antioxidant that is produced in the body).
- Inositol: A vitamin-like substance that helps regulate insulin, glucose and fat metabolism. Its also has another useful side effect: It promotes mental clarity and mood that helps patients to maintain their weight-loss regimen.
- Choline: A nutrient that supports liver function and fat metabolism by reducing fat build up in the liver and mobilizing fat for energy production.
- B-12: The MIC injection is often paired with B-12 shots to increase energy and exercise capacity.
GLP-1 receptor agonists like Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and Liraglutide are weight loss injections that affect metabolism, appetite, or fat storage. Originally developed to treat Type 2 diabetes, the discovery of their impact on Metabolic Syndrome, weight loss, inflammation, and anti-aging make it one of the most consequential new drug applications of the last 50 years. You can see weight loss of at least 15% of total body weight, even in patients who have struggled to lose weight by other means. This is with the GLP-1 alone. The weight loss is even greater with MIC, B-12, NAD+, and Glutathione shots. Another effect of the adjunct nutraceuticals mentioned is increased muscle sparing and increased capacity for exercise.
At Cyrus Cosmetics we offer generic versions because of their affordability and ability to add MIC, NAD+ and B-12 as part of our commitment to helping more of our patients take full advantage of these transformative weight loss treatments.
