  • Support long-term weight management when combined with healthy lifestyle changes

  • Fewer cravings and less emotional eating
  • Improved consistency with diet and exercise plans
  • Steady, sustainable weight loss
  • More control over food-related behaviors

  • Carry excess body fat or an increased waist circumference that raises health risks, even if your BMI is lower
