There are studies that show that sugar is 8-10x more addictive than cocaine. Withdrawal symptoms, such as depression and behavioral issues, are seen when people try to stop consuming sugar completely. Excessive sugar consumption is linked to type 2 diabetes and obesity. Sugar attacks the vascular system, putting one at risk for stroke, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, peripheral vascular disease, and Alzheimer’s disease.
For sugar lovers, Reboot Health offers a sugar addict weight loss therapy (SAWLT). It is composed of 3 drug combinations: namely; (1) low-dose naltrexone, sermorelin, and lipo-trim SL. SAWLT does not diminish or alter your sense of taste for sugar, so you can still enjoy your favorite food, just in moderation.
Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) helps suppress carbs and sugar cravings. It may also decrease insulin levels, which can improve growth hormone levels. Growth hormone helps the body burn fat and maintain lean muscle mass. LDN reduces insulin resistance. In some studies, LDN has been shown to reduce overall inflammation throughout the body. LDN also improves mood and improves sleep.
Sermorelin is a subcutaneous nightly injection. It stimulates the pituitary to produce more of your own body’s growth hormone. Growth hormone production drops naturally as we age. As mentioned before, growth hormone can increase the development of lean body mass through the development of new muscle cells. The last drug in the SAWLT is the lipo-trim SL, which is a daily sublingual oral spray, which includes a combination of amino acids and B vitamins.
Lipo-trim SL is known to help the body convert fat into energy, also helps reduce cravings, and can help support the immune system.
The price for SAWLT is $175 per month. However, the price is reduced to $160 per month if you sign up for 6 months. Monitoring during treatment is included in the monthly price, except for periodic blood work and thorough assessments. This periodic monitoring is done every 2-3 months, and will be covered by your insurance if your BMI is 27.0 to 29.9, and have 1 or more of the co-morbid conditions, such as Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, joint/back pain, sleep apnea, or if your BMI is 30 and above.
