Injectables for Weight Loss

At Sunshine Health DPC, vitamin injections can support weight loss by providing essential nutrients that enhance metabolism, boost energy levels, and promote fat burning.

How Vitamin & Peptide Injections Help:

1

Boosts Energy and Reduces Fatigue

Vitamin injections, particularly B12 and B-complex, vitamin C, Vitamin D, help combat fatigue by improving energy production at the cellular level. Increased energy allows for more active workouts and daily activity, which contributes to calorie burn and weight loss.

2

Supports Metabolism

B vitamins (like B12, B6, and B-complex), vitamin C and Vitamin D, play a critical role in energy production and metabolic processes. These vitamins help the body convert food into usable energy more efficiently, boosting metabolism and supporting fat loss.

3

Enhances Fat Burning

L-carnitine and lipotropic compounds found in certain vitamin injections help transport fatty acids into the cells for energy production, aiding fat burning and improving fat metabolism, especially during exercise.

4

Reduces Cravings and Supports Appetite Control

Vitamin and peptide injections help regulate hunger hormones and reduce cravings, promoting healthier eating habits and easier weight management.

5

Improves Detoxification

Vitamins and peptides such as Vitamin C and glutathione injections aid in detoxification, helping to cleanse the body of toxins that may slow down metabolism, ultimately supporting weight loss efforts.

6

Preserves Muscle Mass

Muscle loss can happen with weight loss. Vitamins and peptide injections help to support muscle health. Maintaining muscle mass is crucial for keeping your metabolism high and ensuring that weight loss is from fat, not muscle.

Frequently Asked Questions about
Peptide Injections for Weight Loss

What are peptide injections?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as messengers in the body, signaling cells to perform specific functions. Certain peptides can boost metabolism, regulate appetite, improve fat burning, and support muscle growth—making them powerful tools for weight loss and body composition.

Peptide therapies can:

  • Reduce appetite and cravings

  • Increase fat burning (lipolysis)

  • Preserve lean muscle mass

  • Improve sleep and recovery

  • Support insulin sensitivity and metabolic function

They help your body shift into a more fat-burning, muscle-sparing state, which supports sustainable and healthy weight loss.

We offer several medically supervised peptides, including:

  • Semaglutide (GLP-1 receptor agonist) – controls hunger, improves blood sugar, and promotes significant fat loss

  • Tirzepatide – dual-action peptide that targets both GLP-1 and GIP pathways for advanced appetite and insulin regulation

  • Sermorelin– stimulate natural growth hormone production to improve fat burning, energy, and body composition

  • Lipo-A –– targets cellular metabolism to increase fat oxidation

We choose the right peptide (or combination) based on your individual health profile and goals.

Most patients see noticeable results after 3-5 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. The exact number of treatments depends on the area and desired outcome.

Most peptides are administered via a small, subcutaneous injection (like an insulin shot) either daily or weekly, depending on the type and protocol. We teach you how to self-administer them safely and comfortably at home.

Many patients start noticing reduced hunger, improved energy, and better sleep within 2–4 weeks. Visible weight loss and body changes often occur within 4–8 weeks, with consistent use and lifestyle support.

Peptide consultations, monitoring, and support are included in your Sunshine Health DPC membership. However, the cost of the peptide medications themselves is separate and varies depending on type and dose. We partner with trusted compounding pharmacies and offer transparent pricing.

Yes—peptides work best as part of a holistic plan. While they can help regulate appetite and metabolism, pairing them with nutrient-dense eating, movement, and good sleep habits amplifies your results and builds long-term success.

Not necessarily. Peptides are a tool to help reset your metabolic pathways and establish healthy habits. With ongoing support from Sunshine Health DPC, many patients maintain their weight loss through titrating off and  continued lifestyle changes, even after finishing peptide therapy.

We’ll assess your health history, labs, weight loss goals, and current challenges during a comprehensive metabolic consultation. If peptides are appropriate, we’ll create a personalized plan with the right dose, education, and follow-up care.

Frequently Asked Questions about
Supplemental Supporting Peptides & Vitamins

What are vitamin and peptide injections?

These injectables involve delivering essential vitamins and nutrients directly into the skin through a needle, like a “shot” or vaccination. This allows for faster, more effective absorption and more immediate effects compared to oral supplements.

Vitamin injections, like B12, B-complex, and peptides like L-carnitine, and lipotropic compounds, boost metabolism, reduce fatigue, support energy levels, and promote fat burning, all of which can help with weight loss.

  • Vitamin B12: Boosts energy and metabolism.

  • B-Complex Vitamins: Enhance metabolic processes and increase energy.

  • L-Carnitine: Helps convert fat into energy, improving fat metabolism.

  • Lipotropic Injections: Break down fat and improve liver function.

  • Vitamin D: Supports metabolism and regulates hunger hormones.

  • Glutathione: Detoxifies the body and supports fat burning.

  • Vitamin C: Aids in detoxification and boosts cellular immunity

Vitamin injections are beneficial for individuals who experience low energy, sluggish metabolism, difficulty losing weight, or those looking for an additional boost in their weight management journey.

Yes—when prescribed and monitored by a qualified provider. At Sunshine Health DPC, all peptide therapies are:

  • Prescribed based on labs and clinical history

  • Compounded by FDA monitored, licensed pharmacies

  • Monitored closely for safety, tolerance, and results

Side effects are generally mild and may include nausea, fatigue, or mild injection site irritation, depending on the peptide.

The frequency depends on your individual goals and needs and the particular vitamin. Some people benefit from weekly or bi-weekly injections, while others may need less frequent treatments. We will create a customized plan for you.

  • Increased energy and reduced fatigue

  • Enhanced metabolism and fat burning

  • Reduced cravings and improved appetite control

  • Improved detoxification

  • Better workout recovery

  • Preserved muscle mass during weight loss

  • Improved sleep quality

No, these nutrient injections are part of a comprehensive weight management program at Sunshine Health DPC. We also offer personalized diet plans, exercise recommendations, hormone balancing, and other treatments to support your weight loss goals.

Vitamin and Peptide injections are quick and typically take only a few minutes. You can resume your normal activities immediately after the injection.

While nutrient injections provide a boost, combining them with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management will maximize the benefits and help you achieve your weight loss goals.

To begin, schedule a consultation with us. We’ll assess your health and weight loss goals, recommend the appropriate injectables, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
