Semaglutide is one of the earlier GLP-1 receptor agonists, and while effective, it can cause low energy and gastrointestinal (GI) issues. Here’s how I would personally use it to mitigate these effects and enhance overall results:
1. Dosing Strategy
- Start with three small doses per week of 100mcg.
- Gradually increase the dosage over time until you reach a total weekly dose of 1-2mg.
2. Supporting Gut Health
- Implement BPC-157 to help protect and heal the gut while using Semaglutide.
3. Combating Low Energy
- MOTS-C: Inject 5mg, three times per week to support mitochondrial function and energy production.
- 5-Amino-1MQ: Inject 5mg, three times per week to counteract any metabolic slowdowns.
4. Enhancing Cardio Performance & Energy
- Methylene Blue: Take 5mg to help boost mitochondrial efficiency and cardiovascular performance.
5. Boosting Fat Loss
- Carnitine (600mg) + AOD-9604 (300mcg)
- Taken twice daily, fasted to support lipolysis and beta-oxidation of fat cells.
By following this stacked approach, you can minimize common side effects of Semaglutide while maximizing energy, gut health, and fat loss efficiency.
