Appetite works in the brain. So does Wegovy^®*

Silhouette of the human body showing the GLP-1 hormone.

Your brain gets signals from different places in your body. Some of these signals are called appetite hormones, like GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which help regulate how much food you eat.

Wegovy^® works similarly to GLP-1 by reducing your appetite, so you eat fewer calories and lose weight.
