According to KFF, 12% of American adults have taken a GLP-1 agonist (Ozempic). While this prescription drug was originally created to control blood sugar levels in diabetes patients, it’s now popularly used for weight loss too. In fact, of the adults in the above survey, 40% said they took GLP-1 agonists to lose weight.
While Ozempic weight management is certainly effective on its own, people are starting to combine it with red light therapy. The utilization of red light technology results in not only more fat loss, but also other benefits.
So you should try Ozempic with red light therapy if you’re interested in synergistic health treatments. Read on to see all the red light and Ozempic therapy benefits you can get.
Enhanced Weight Loss
Ozempic is a great alternative to liposuction since you don’t have to go under the knife. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone, which is responsible for your blood sugar and appetite. Since it slows down digestion, it’ll make you feel full for longer, and this can result in a reduced calorie intake.
Red light therapy may stimulate mitochondria, which is the powerhouse of cells. In turn, this can help increase fat metabolism. A 2011 study found that red light therapy promotes the release of stored triglycerides, and this may assist in shrinking fat cells.
When you combine Ozempic with red light therapy, you’ll see accelerated fat loss and body contouring. This is especially true since you won’t feel as hungry and will eat less, which can prevent you from weight stagnation or even gaining more weight.
Improved Insulin Sensitivity
As we’ve said earlier, Ozempic was first created to help manage diabetes, so naturally, it’ll give you more control over your blood sugar levels. As a result, this will reduce your risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. In addition, Ozempic decreases glucose production in your liver, which stabilizes your blood sugar levels.
On the other hand, Ozempic can help your body make more insulin if needed. For instance, it can stimulate your pancreas to produce more in response to meals.
As for red light therapy, a study showed that photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can improve glucose metabolism in muscle cells. It might also aid with mitochondrial function, allowing your cells to use glucose more efficiently.
Research also shows that red light therapy can reduce oxidative stress, which is linked to insulin resistance. This means that you can use Ozempic to control your blood sugar and incorporate red light therapy to support cellular energy production.
Reduced Inflammation
It’s common to have chronic inflammation if you’re obese and/or have diabetes. Those with metabolic disorders and rheumatoid arthritis may experience this symptom too.
What’s excellent about Ozempic is that it can lower levels of inflammatory markers, such as C-reactive protein (CRP). And by improving your metabolic health, this medication may indirectly reduce inflammation in your organs (such as the liver and pancreas).
As we’ve mentioned earlier, red light therapy can decrease oxidative stress, and as a result, this reduces inflammation at a cellular level. Plus, it can improve circulation and help deliver oxygen and nutrients to your inflamed tissues.
When you combine these two treatments, you’ll have a fighting chance against inflammation, and your overall health will become better.
Better Energy Levels
Are you always feeling drained and like no amount of sleep will reenergize you? This can happen while on Ozempic, especially when you’re eating significantly less food. When you reduce your calorie intake, you’ll have lower energy, and Ozempic may cause you to have nausea or mild dehydration.
Luckily, red light healing effects include better energy levels. It can stimulate mitochondria to produce more cellular energy and aid in oxygen circulation.
So if you use red light therapy while on Ozempic, you can prevent these annoying energy dips. We suggest having sessions in the morning or before a workout to maintain steady energy levels.
Skin Health and Anti-Aging
Yes, Ozempic can be wonderful for significant weight loss. However, an unfortunate side effect is loose and sagging skin, especially in the face. This is due to reduced collagen production, which leads to wrinkles and skin laxity.
The best way to combat this is through red light therapy. It can boost collagen and elastin production, and you’ll see an improvement in skin elasticity. In fact, this therapy is often used for anti-aging purposes, as it rejuvenates the skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
And as we’ve said earlier, red light therapy can enhance circulation. With better skin hydration, you’ll have a reduction in dullness, and your skin will glow.
Those who use Ozempic primarily to lose weight shouldn’t miss out on red light therapy. Combining the two treatments can help keep skin firm and smooth, and you’ll have a lower chance of sagging skin. It might also promote the healing of stretch marks or cellulite as your body adjusts to the amazing weight loss.
Pain and Muscle Recovery Support
An unpleasant side effect of losing weight rapidly on Ozempic is muscle aches and mild joint pain. Another is gastrointestinal discomfort, which can come with bloating and cramping.
You can easily mitigate these effects with red light therapy. Since it decreases oxidative stress and improves circulation, it can help reduce chronic pain. It can also reduce muscle soreness and help with recovery after exercise, so use red light therapy after your workouts.
Make sure you continue taking Ozempic as prescribed while incorporating red light therapy into your wellness routine. Maintain a balanced diet and drink plenty of water to see the best results.
