Semaglutide Recommended Partnered Lifestyle Changes

In conjunction with the prescription of Semaglutide, Allure Medical recommends healthy lifestyle changes to assure success on our patients’ weight loss journey. On top of increasing one’s activity level, there are three key steps to help optimize one’s weight loss on Semaglutide.

1. Switch from American Diet to Mediterranean Diet

a) Studies have shown that a Mediterranean diet is one of the best for weight loss and a healthy body. This eating style contains high amounts of vegetables, nuts, plant oils (particularly olive oil), legumes (beans, peas, lentils) fruits, and whole grains. Most importantly, these diets have no processed foods (no chips, processed breads, energy bars, boxed meals, etc.), no red meat, occasional poultry, and modest fish consumption.

2. Management of Gut Microbiome

a) One’s gut microbiome is key in determining weight and overall gastrointestinal health.

b) Prebiotics help improve one’s microbiome, we emphasize the following two supplements:

i Galactooligosaccharide “GOS” sourced from various legumes. This supplement should be incorporated slowly and titrated slowly to avoid stomach upset.

ii Bata thylakoid sourced from spinach. This supplement, which usually comes as a green powder can be mixed into meals, water, or our favorite, a low sugar orange juice to aid with taste.

3. Extra Virgin Olive Oil Incorporation

a) Extra Virgin olive oil has been clinically shown to promote weight loss. This oil can be mixed into smoothies, added to food, or taken straight.

i Recommended 1.5 tablespoons daily, no need to start with smaller dosing.

ii We advise patients to check the sourcing of their oil to assure quality and purity, our favorite olive oils are from Chili, Australia, and the U.S. who have low likelihood of being counterfeit.
