Do you need help losing weight in the Twin Cities? Achieve faster, surer results than healthy diet and exercise can achieve on their own with Regner Health Solutions!

Since our foundation in 2022, our Bloomington weight loss clinic has helped over 400 people shed pounds and feel healthier through the power of protein-based therapies. Each patient who joins us first consults with a licensed doctor in Minnesota, who learns their unique health history and weight loss goals before recommending the best path forward. Treatment can begin that very same day!

A new patient only has to visit our clinic during their first four to five weeks of noninvasive treatment. Afterward, they may self-administer whichever generic (and far more affordable than name brand) weight loss drug their doctor prescribes in the comfort of their own home. There is no long-term commitment; only a month-by-month investment in your health.

Regner Health Solutions currently specializes in tirzepatide, semaglutide, and retatrutide injectable weight loss therapies. Here’s why.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide (the generic name for the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound) was the 110th most prescribed pharmaceutical in 2023, with approximately 6.3 million total prescriptions during that year.

In a recent study of 2,539 adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, participants were shown to have lost an average of 20.9% body weight after receiving 72 weekly 15 mg doses of tirzepatide. Even more promisingly, tirzepatide was shown to improve cardiometabolic risk factors including waist circumference, blood pressure, and fasting insulin level.

Semaglutide

Since its development by Novo Nordisk in 2012, semaglutide (the generic name for the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy) has gained far greater popularity than tirzepatide. At nearly 26 million total prescriptions, it was the 19th most prescribed drug in 2023 alone.

Why has semaglutide become so popular? It’s not just its demonstrable effect on weight loss, with one recent study showing that participants lost an average of 33.7 pounds after receiving 68 weekly 2.4 mg doses. Cardiometabolic risk factors and physical functioning have both also been shown to improve with semaglutide. It can additionally be used to treat Type 2 diabetes, and may even reduce the risks of heart disease and certain types of cancers as well.

Retatrutide

Retatrutide (which is presently being developed by Zepbound creator Eli Lily) has been hailed as “a game changer in obesity pharmacology” by Biomolecules. Studies have demonstrated retatrutide’s ability to delay gastric emptying, reduce food intake, and promote weight loss more effectively than any other gut hormone therapy.

One particular recent study shows retatrutide’s incredible promise. Upon receiving just 48 weekly 12 mg doses of the drug, 83% of participants showed at least 15% weight reduction; 93% showed at least 10%; and 100% of participants showed at least 5%.

Experience Affordable Medical Weight Loss

Regner Health Solutions is on a mission to make medical weight loss affordable to everyone. That’s why we don’t prescribe name brand drugs, which can easily cost over $1,700 a month. Our generic alternatives have precisely the same effects. They just cost as little as $299 a month instead.

Our patients don’t just become happier with their appearance. Improved sleep. Reduced blood pressure. Lower likelihood of diabetes, and lower incidence of joint issues, too. They’re all yours to gain with Regner Health Solutions’ help!
