NEW! The Future Of GLP-1 Weight Loss Is NOW Including NAD+
Medically Managed GLP-1 Shots PLUS Now Offered at Atlantic Highlands Wellness Center
Located right on First Street in the heart of Atlantic Highlands. The Atlantic Highlands Wellness Center is proud to offer Medically Managed GLP-1 Shots PLUS, a cutting-edge weight management program, with a focus on full-body wellness. GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide are known for their powerful effects on appetite regulation, insulin sensitivity, and weight reduction. Under supervision, your weekly injections are precisely tailored to support your body’s metabolism, health goals, and nutritional needs.
But what truly sets this program apart is the “PLUS”—an innovative, multi-modality approach that tackles the common challenges often seen with weight loss. At our wellness center, we go beyond injections to help you preserve lean muscle, help avoid sagging skin, and contour your shape. Our team combines EMS muscle-building technology with your GLP-1 medication to stimulate and help strengthen core muscle groups, helping your body stay toned as you lose fat.
In addition, we integrate targeted cryotherapy to aid in body sculpting and fat reduction in stubborn areas. This localized cryo approach helps to activate cellular metabolism, firm tissue, and trigger natural fat breakdown—all while promoting collagen production for smoother, tighter skin. To further support your transformation, our program includes lymphatic drainage therapy, which helps your body flush toxins, reduce inflammation, and maintain healthy circulation throughout your weight loss journey.
Combining NAD+ therapy with GLP-1 medications offers a powerful, science-backed approach to enhancing weight loss and overall metabolic health. NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a vital coenzyme that supports cellular energy production, mitochondrial function, and DNA repair—processes that can slow down during calorie restriction or weight loss. When paired with GLP-1 treatments like semaglutide or tirzepatide, NAD+ can help boost energy levels, reduce fatigue, and support muscle preservation, making it easier to stay active and motivated. This synergistic combination not only enhances fat metabolism and insulin sensitivity but also promotes long-term wellness and sustainable results.
The Medically Managed GLP-1 Shots PLUS program at Atlantic Highlands Wellness Center isn’t just about dropping pounds—it’s about helping you feel strong, balanced, and confident in your body. Whether you’re starting your weight loss journey or enhancing current results, our integrated approach delivers both supervision and holistic support in one convenient, welcoming location. Book your FREE consultation today and experience the next level of personalized body transformation.
❓1. What are GLP-1 shots, and how do they work?
A: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide help regulate blood sugar and control appetite by mimicking natural hormones. When used under medical supervision, they can promote steady, sustainable weight loss by reducing cravings and increasing feelings of fullness.
❓2. What does the “PLUS” include in the GLP-1 Shots PLUS program?
A: The “PLUS” combines advanced body contouring and wellness support with your weekly injections. This includes EMS muscle-building technology to help prevent muscle loss, targeted cryotherapy for body shaping, and lymphatic drainage to support detoxification and healthy circulation during weight loss.
❓3. Will this program help prevent saggy skin during weight loss?
A: Yes. The integrated use of EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) and targeted cryo treatments helps preserve and tone muscle while stimulating collagen, which can reduce skin laxity and promote a firmer, more sculpted appearance.
❓4. Is this program safe for everyone?
A: All participants undergo a medical evaluation before starting. GLP-1 medications are not suitable for everyone, especially those with certain medical conditions. We will assess your individuals health needs to determine if you’re a candidate.
❓5. How often do I need to visit the wellness center?
A: Most patients receive weekly GLP-1 injections, with additional EMS and cryo sessions scheduled based on your customized plan. We work with you to create a schedule that supports your goals and lifestyle.
❓6. How long before I see results?
A: Many patients begin noticing changes within the first few weeks, including reduced appetite and gradual fat loss. Enhanced body sculpting results may be seen after several EMS and cryo sessions, especially when paired with healthy habits.
❓7. Do I need to follow a strict diet while on GLP-1?
A: While no extreme dieting is required, we recommend following a balanced nutrition plan to maximize results and support your metabolism.
🧬 NAD⁺ and GLP‑1: The Science Behind Synergy
A pivotal study published in Endocrinology demonstrated that restoring intestinal NAD⁺ levels via supplementation improved GLP‑1 production and glucose metabolism in obese mouse models. These findings suggest that impaired NAD⁺ biosynthesis contributes to reduced incretin hormone response, while NAD⁺ precursor administration—such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN)—can counteract metabolic dysregulation associated with obesity and aging PMC+11Franco, Johnny (scalingskinny.com)+11Business Insider+11J-STAGE+3PubMed+3ResearchGate+3.
NAD⁺ depletion is widely recognized as a hallmark of metabolic dysfunction. Supplementation with precursors like NMN or nicotinamide riboside (NR) has been shown to restore mitochondrial function, enhance fat oxidation, bolster insulin sensitivity, and support skeletal muscle health Pulse & Remedy. When combined with GLP‑1 agents like semaglutide or tirzepatide—which regulate appetite, slow gastric emptying, and promote insulin secretion—the two act synergistically to optimize both hormonal and cellular metabolism, helping patients overcome plateaus and sustain weight loss ScienceDirect+3Pulse & Remedy+3Franco, Johnny (scalingskinny.com)+3.
⚕️ Clinical Applications and Implications
-
Synergistic Metabolic Support: GLP‑1 therapy primarily targets appetite and glycemic control, while NAD⁺ enhancement addresses the cellular energy and mitochondrial pathways needed for sustained metabolic demand.
-
Muscle & Energy Preservation: NAD⁺ supports muscle function and recovery—a critical asset when appetite suppression reduces caloric intake, which otherwise may lead to muscle loss or fatigue.
-
Improved Long-Term Outcomes: Together, the treatments may reduce rebound weight gain, improve metabolic flexibility, and support overall wellness through a dual approach that targets both hormone pathways and intracellular bioenergetics.
📊 Summary
Combining medically managed GLP‑1 injections with NAD⁺ therapy represents an innovative, science-infused approach to managing weight, enhancing energy, and supporting metabolic health. While human clinical trials are still emerging, preclinical models and early translational studies support the therapeutic rationale. Always consult a medical professional and consider individual health status and treatment history before beginning combination therapy.
