GLP-1 mimetic clinic

GLP-1 mimetics

GLP-1 mimetic injections, overseen by the experts

Join us in our ambition to help patients with, or who are at risk of, heart disease, learn more about their metabolism, muscle and visceral fat. Leveraging from our medical expertise to get the best out of modern ‘wonder drugs’ such as Semaglutide (Wegovi) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro).

Find lifestyle and food choices that offer the best chance of a long and healthy life with less dependence on seeing your GP.

With our metabolic toolkit, guidance and educational material, you can manage a great deal of prevention for yourself.

Gut hormones can mediate weight gain and contribute to poor metabolic health

Ancestral gut hormone and metabolic processes that once gave a survival edge to our ancestors during famine and ice ages, may be counterproductive in modern times where there is an abundance of carbohydrate-rich food sources.

GLP -1 mimetic injections can therefore be utilised to reduce visceral and peripheral fat stores required to enhance metabolic health in patients with heart conditions such as hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, where randomised controlled trials have shown significant benefit.

The central role of skeletal muscle in glucose regulation

While excessive visceral and subcutaneous fat stores are major contributors to insulin resistance and poor metabolic health, which are major risk factors for heart disease, maintaining or enhancing skeletal muscle also plays a major role in battling glucose and insulin dysregulation.

At SCVC’s cardiometabolic clinic we utilise food apps and biosensors to supplement GLP-1 mimetics to maximise or restore muscle mass, providing the best chance of restoring a healthy metabolism required for maximal possible health span
