Description

Tesamorelin is the only peptide with FDA approval specifically for visceral fat reduction. It works by stimulating your pituitary gland to produce more of your own growth hormone in a natural pulsatile pattern, which then drives visceral fat breakdown through IGF-1. Unlike injecting growth hormone directly, tesamorelin works with your body's own regulatory system rather than replacing it. The pivotal clinical trials published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed approximately 15 to 18% reduction in visceral adipose tissue over 26 weeks, measured by DEXA and CT scan. That is meaningful, statistically significant data on actual visceral fat volume, not just waist circumference. This video covers why visceral fat is metabolically different to subcutaneous fat and why it resists standard diet and exercise interventions, how tesamorelin works at a hormonal level, what the clinical trial data actually showed, how it compares to retatrutide and other peptides in this class, the full side effect profile including what to monitor, and who this intervention is most relevant for. What I cover: — Why visceral fat is metabolically different and uniquely resistant to standard fat loss interventions — What tesamorelin is and how it stimulates growth hormone without replacing it — What the clinical trials actually showed including specific percentage reductions in visceral fat volume — How tesamorelin compares to retatrutide and other peptides in this class — Side effects and what to monitor including insulin sensitivity changes — Who this is most relevant for and when to consider it ----------- *MY METABOLIC TOOLKIT* 💫 Berberine (10% off: KAIT10): https://hckait.com/getsobalanced 🧂 Electrolytes (15% off): https://hckait.com/sodiielectrolytes 🥤 Protein powder (20% off): https://hckait.com/equip 🍳 Non-toxic cookware (15% off): https://hckait.com/misen 🩸 At-home insulin resistance test (10% off: KAIT10) https://hckait.com/getsowell 🔥 Continuous glucose monitor (25% off): https://hckait.com/signos 🚨 Red light therapy ($260 off): https://hckait.com/rlt ☕️ MCT oil: https://hckait.com/bulletproof *WATCH NEXT* https://youtu.be/ImdgLKDwklk https://youtu.be/ifE5YuT1guc https://youtu.be/PiHeYMXSz6s *SOCIAL LINKS* Instagram: https://instagram.com/healthcoachkait TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@healthcoachkait Facebook: https://facebook.com/.com/healthcoachkait *COACHING* 7-Day Insulin Resistance Masterclass https://hckait.com/IRmasterclass *TIME STAMPS* 0:00 Why visceral fat is metabolically dangerous and different to regular fat 0:45 Can you actually target visceral fat specifically 1:26 How tesamorelin differs from GLP-1 peptides like retatrutide 1:58 Why visceral fat resists standard diet and exercise 3:31 What tesamorelin is and how it stimulates growth hormone naturally 4:30 Clinical trial results, specific visceral fat reduction percentages 6:37 How tesamorelin and retatrutide mechanisms overlap 7:01 Side effects and what to monitor on tesamorelin 8:13 Tesamorelin availability and research use only status 9:00 Who tesamorelin is most relevant for *ABOUT ME* Hi, I’m Kait Malthaner (aka Health Coach Kait), a certified health and nutrition coach specialising in blood sugar balance and reversing insulin resistance.
