Game-Changing Weight Loss

New Horizon Wellness St. Louis Clinic Offers Antidiabetic Medications, B12 And 'Skinny Shots'

Kevin Teubner, one of the owner’s of New Horizon Wellness in St. Louis, says he's seen patients come off of medications they’ve been on for a decade or more after taking the medications his clinic offers.

“You'd be surprised how many other aspects of your life improve when you lose weight,” Kevin says. “Your knees and back feel better, and everything seems to improve.”

Kevin says his St. Louis clinic offers innovative solutions that align with its holistic approach to well-being, integrating lifestyle modifications, nutritional guidance and emotional support.

New Horizon Wellness currently offers Semaglutide and Tirzepatide for weight loss.

• Semaglutide, more commonly known as Ozempic or Wegovy (a higher-dose version of Ozempic), is prescribed for chronic weight loss management and has shown benefits in managing various health conditions. It’s a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists. Originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, this medication has gained attention for its potential benefits beyond glycemic control, including managing blood sugar levels and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular issues. By mimicking the action of a natural hormone, GLP-1, it helps the body regulate glucose levels.

• Tirzepatide, more commonly known as Mounjaro and Zepbound, is also an antidiabetic medication that controls blood sugar levels while offering additional benefits beyond traditional diabetes treatments. 

Unlike some diabetes medications that may lead to weight gain, Kevin says Tirzepatide has demonstrated significant weight loss benefits. “Its dual-action action approach addresses both diabetes and weight management, thus promoting a healthier overall lifestyle,” he adds.

Kevin says they're also offering other injections, such as B12 and 'Skinny Shots,' and will be adding more services in the future. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient credited with increasing energy levels, enhancing metabolism, improving mood and brain function, protecting nerve cells and perhaps helping improve memory, concentration and overall cognitive performance. Skinny Shots, also known as lipotropic injections, are used to help patients with weight loss by boosting energy and metabolism while increasing the removal of fat. They’re a mixture of B vitamins, amino acids and lipotropic agents.
