Medical Weight Loss

Our medical weight loss management plans encourage you to adopt healthy and sustainable habits into your lifestyle while adding supplementary support through appetite suppressants, nutraceuticals, and supplements. 

We understand that obesity is a complex condition heavily determined by specific factors like your habits, family support, mental health, and overall lifestyle. We understand that people have different fitness and weight loss-related goals. 

Our providers will work closely with you to develop a tailored plan that takes into full consideration these specific concerns.

Appetite Suppressants

Appetite suppressants help reduce your hunger and decrease your food intake, promoting faster weight loss results. 

When conservative approaches like having a healthy diet and exercise regimen are not enough, appetite suppressants enable you to effectively control your food consumption. 

Phentermine

Phentermine enhances weight loss by suppressing your appetite and prolonging the sensation of fullness in your stomach. It is a stimulant drug that increases the release of a neurotransmitter associated with appetite control called norepinephrine. 

Common side effects include: 

  • Sleeplessness
  • Nervousness
  • Constipation
  • Dry mouth
  • Unpleasant taste
  • Diarrhea
  • Mild nausea 

Semaglutide

Semaglutide was originally created to assist patients with diabetes management. It has now recently received FDA approval as a weight loss solution for those dealing with obesity. 

When injected, Semaglutide stimulates the hormones in charge of controlling your appetite and slows the process of emptying your stomach. 

Some of the most common side effects that appear after administering a dose of Semaglutide include vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, and constipation, among others.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is an FDA-approved prescription medication that suppresses appetite by mimicking the GLP-1 and GIP hormones responsible for the natural sensation of satiety. 

This medication also causes your insulin production to become more efficient, leading to an optimal regulation of your sugar levels. 

Tirzepatide is not recommended for people under 18 or for those with type 1 diabetes. It may also not be suitable for those dealing with

  • Thyroid cancer
  • Endocrine conditions
  • Serious allergic reactions to Tirzepatide

Some of the common side effects of this medication may mildly affect your gastrointestinal system, causing temporary symptoms like constipation, diarrhea, and mild nausea. 

Supplements

Supplements complement your diet by filling nutritional gaps and increasing the amount of minerals your body absorbs. Some of the supplements we offer at RBI Concierge Medicine include the following:

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are fish oil supplements that support our heart health, brain function, and overall mental well-being. They play a key role in maintaining cognitive health, supporting memory, and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. 

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a natural nutrient produced when our bodies are exposed to sunlight. It helps enhance bone health and promotes effective mineral absorption. This supplement is highly suggested when sunlight exposure is limited. 

Probiotics

Probiotics are naturally found in foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi. They are a kind of bacteria that promote a healthy gut microbiome, immune function, and overall digestive health. 

Collagen

Collagen promotes tissue elasticity and provides structural support to our joints. Collagen supplements can help enhance your skin, hair, nails, and joint health. These are available in powders, capsules, and beverages. 

Adaptogens

Adaptogens, as the name suggests, help our body effectively adapt to physical and mental stress while restoring balance and promoting resilience. Some of the most popular adaptogens are Ashwagandha, Rhodiola Rosea, Holy Basil, and Ginseng. 

Nutraceuticals

Nutraceuticals are derived from food sources, such as vitamins, minerals, or herbal extracts. 

Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral that plays an essential role in nerve and muscle function, blood pressure regulation, and energy production. When used as a supplement, it can help reduce the symptoms of migraine and body pain. 

Vitamin B2

Vitamin B2 is a water-soluble vitamin essential to energy production and cell growth. It can also increase the production of antioxidants that protect the brain from damage.

Melatonin

Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in the brain. Its main function is to regulate the sleep-wake cycle and has been found to reduce symptoms linked to migraine headaches effectively. 

Melatonin is also a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, which can help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in the body. 

Butterbur

Butterbur is a natural herb that has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. It can effectively reduce the symptoms associated with headaches and severe migraines. 

Feverfew

Feverfew helps inhibit the production of inflammatory chemicals that cause severe headaches. It can reduce the frequency, duration, and pain severity of migraine without causing significant side effects. 

Resveratrol

Resveratrol can be naturally found in grapes, peanuts, and certain types of berries that have anti-inflammatory properties. This substance inhibits the production of inflammatory cytokines, which are responsible for causing inflammation in the brain.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for the absorption of calcium and the reduction of brain swelling. This supplement works by regulating the production of inflammatory cytokines and promoting the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, which help reduce swelling in the brain. 

Food Detox Programs

A food detox involves a period of fasting, followed by a diet composed of vegetables, fruits, and water. Some of the benefits these programs offer include:

  • Resting your gastrointestinal organs
  • Stimulating your liver to get rid of harmful substances like pollutants and synthetic chemicals
  • Promoting toxin elimination through feces, urine, and sweat
  • Improving blood flow
  • Reduces bloating and chronic fatigue
  • Helps reduce symptoms associated with digestive issues and autoimmune diseases
