What are GLP-1 analogues and how do they work?
GLP-1 analogues mimic the GLP-1 intestinal hormone, which is released after eating to signal fullness and satiety to the brain.
Reduce Appetite
They increase the feeling of satiety, helping you feel satisfied with smaller portions of food.
Slow Down Digestion
By slowing gastric emptying, they help you eat less without feeling constant hunger.
Improve Metabolism
They enhance insulin production and action, providing superior glucose control.
What are GIP analogues and how do they work in your body?
GIP (Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide) analogues are molecules designed to mimic the function of natural hormones in our gut (incretins). Unlike other treatments, these optimize the metabolic response only when the body needs it, achieving superior hormonal balance.
Primary Mechanisms of Action:
"This technology represents the most significant breakthrough in metabolic medicine of the last decade."
Why is the combination of GIP and GLP-1 important?
The interaction between GIP and GLP-1 allows for a comprehensive approach to metabolic control, working complementarily on four fundamental pillars:
This mechanism makes them a key tool in the management of overweight, obesity, and metabolic disorders, always under medical supervision.

MOUNJARO / ZEPBOUND (Tirzepatide)
Weekly Injection • Dual GLP-1 + GIP Action • 2026 VanguardExclusive Innovation: Tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, activating two incretin hormones instead of just one. This produces a more potent effect on fat metabolism and weight loss.
Advantages of Dual Mechanism:
- Superior glucose control
- Intense effect on fat metabolism
- Marked appetite reduction
- Superior weight loss vs conventional GLP-1s
SURMOUNT-1 Study: Up to 22.5% loss over 72 weeks.
A 100 kg person can lose 20-22 kg or more.
Commercial Comparison
Tirzepatide yields greater weight loss than semaglutide (approx. 21% vs 15%). It represents the absolute vanguard of obesity treatments.
Positioning
Ideal for patients with significant obesity or those who did not achieve sufficient results with other medications. Maximum efficacy.
What does this mean for you?
These effects translate into lower caloric intake, reduced food cravings, and weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.
They are used for both type 2 diabetes and obesity; some were first approved for diabetes and later (at higher doses) for obesity management.
Semaglutide
Ozempic: Lower doses for diabetes
Wegovy: Higher doses for obesity
Liraglutide
Victoza: 1.8 mg for diabetes
Saxenda: 3 mg for weight loss
Tirzepatide
Mounjaro: Glycemic control (Diabetes)
Zepbound: Weight management (Obesity)
Typical Indication:
Approved for adults with BMI ≥ 30 (obesity) or BMI ≥ 27 with weight-related comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, fatty liver, etc.). All are administered via subcutaneous injection with a pre-filled pen.

Find out if you are a candidate. Book your assessmentPreclinical and Clinical Obesity
BMI remains an important tool, but it is no longer the sole criterion for defining obesity or initiating treatment.
According to updated criteria from The Lancet (2025), conditions associated with excess body fat tissue are key factors in identifying preclinical and clinical obesity. These indicators determine the need for medical treatment, even in early stages.
These conditions reflect a real impact of adipose tissue on overall health, allowing for timely intervention that goes beyond just the number on the scale.
Additional Indications for Medical Treatment
-
Patients experiencing weight regain after bariatric surgery.
-
Patients with insufficient weight loss following bariatric surgery.
-
Patients with a swallowable gastric balloon wishing to enhance results.
-
Patients with medical contraindications for surgical intervention.
Medications originally developed for Type 2 Diabetes that are now utilized for obesity management, achieving weight loss results previously only possible through bariatric surgery.
