Why nothing has worked
Microbiome
Gut bacteria can affect metabolism, inflammation, nutrient absorption, & how your body processes and stores fat. Imbalances in the microbiome have therefore been linked to weight gain[3].
Hormones
Hormones such as insulin, ghrelin, and leptin can affect appetite, metabolism, and fat storage. In particular insulin and ghrelin have been found to contribute to weight gain[4].
Genetics
Genes can influence weight by affecting body composition, metabolic rate, hormone levels, your body’s response to food and exercise & appetite and fat storage[5].
Metabolism
Your metabolism is a process to convert food into energy. A slow metabolism can make it hard to lose weight & may require you to take fewer calories to achieve a healthy weight level[6].
Ask a doctor
Overweight is having excess body weight for your height and BMI is used to measure it. Studies suggest that Asian people may be at higher risk for obesity-related diseases at lower BMIs than other ethnicities. Thus the WHO recommends lower cutoffs for Asian people: BMI 23 or higher indicates overweight, and BMI 27.5 or higher indicates obesity.
Being overweight can increase the risk of developing a number of chronic health conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, certain cancers, sleep apnea, and osteoarthritis. These conditions can impact quality of life and reduce life expectancy.
Biological factors play a significant role in determining a person’s weight. As a result, taking a biological or medical approach to weight management can be advantageous. By evaluating an individual’s medical history, underlying health conditions, and genetic predispositions, healthcare professionals can provide personalized weight management plans that are safe and effective.

The science behind
Innovative medication:
GLP-1s
Current scientific findings provide a better understanding of how our health & biology impact our weight. A new category of drugs, known as GLP-1s, tackle these biological elements directly.
GLP-1 is a hormone that is naturally produced in the body and plays an important role in regulating blood sugar levels and energy metabolism, as well as promoting feelings of fullness and reducing appetite. GLP-1 medications are designed to mimic the effects of this hormone.[7]
Benefit #1

Benefit #2
Regulate digestion
Benefit #3
Shift set point
Benefit #4
Suppresses appetite

What the research says:
“...results in a sensation of satiety, or fullness, lasting much longer than possible with natural GLP-1 hormone levels”[12]
“GLP-1...can lead to clinically significant weight loss and may also help improve other aspects of metabolic health”[13]
“GLP-1... have shown... promise for weight management, with significant reductions in weight, improved metabolic outcomes”[14]

The Ease Body Program uses GLP-1 prescription medication which can help you lose up to 10-15% body weight in 1 year by improving metabolic function, regulating digestion and suppressing appetite. This medication has been approved by the US FDA and by the HSA in Singapore.
The GLP-1 medication provided in the Ease Body Program is applied with a pen with a small needle. The injection process is quick, and patients typically experience minimal discomfort akin to a small prick. The medication needs to be injected into the subcutaneous layer of fat beneath the skin, such as the upper arm, thigh, or abdomen. It’s recommended that patients rotate the injection site regularly. As the medication is protein-based, it cannot be ingested orally, as the digestive system would rapidly break it down, rendering it ineffective.
During the first injection, one of the program’s pharmacists will provide guidance via video call. If any questions or concerns arise about administering the medication, the program’s registered pharmacists are available to provide support. The medical support team can be contacted by emailing customer.care@ease-healthcare.com.
The Ease Body Program uses GLP-1 prescription medication which can help you lose up to 10-15% body weight in 1 year and has been approved by the FDA and by the HSA in Singapore. GLP-1 medication works in the following ways:
Improves metabolic function
GLP-1s regulate blood sugar by stimulating insulin and inhibiting glucagon, while improving insulin sensitivity in muscle cells and regulating fat cell growth. This leads to improved metabolism and weight loss.
Regulates digestion
GLP-1s can improve digestion by slowing down the emptying of the stomach, leading to a longer feeling of fullness and reduced appetite. They also stimulate the release of enzymes and bile acids, which help to break down and absorb food more efficiently.
Shifts set point
GLP-1s help to shift the body’s “set point” (the weight your body fights to maintain) by modifying the activity of brain regions involved in hunger and satiety, leading to reduced appetite and increased energy expenditure.
Suppresses appetite
GLP-1 medications have been shown to help suppress appetite and reduce cravings by affecting the brain’s reward system. Specifically, they act on the mesolimbic dopamine system, which is responsible for feelings of pleasure and reward associated with food intake.
While all medications carry some degree of risk of side effects, it is possible to reduce and manage the side effects associated with the medication prescribed by the Ease Body Program through various lifestyle interventions. Common side effects include temporary symptoms such as nausea, headaches, reflux, constipation, vomiting, fatigue, and injection site irritation.
To assist patients in managing these side effects, the program’s medical support team will check in with them frequently at the beginning of the treatment process. The team is available to offer guidance and support on reducing side effects. If patients have any questions or concerns, they can contact the medical support team by emailing customer.care@ease-healthcare.com.
The Ease Body Program begins with a metabolic test & teleconsultation to assess your eligibility that costs a total of $75.
The body’s biology plays a crucial role in weight loss, which is why a metabolic lab test is necessary. By examining an individual’s hormones and metabolism, the test provides insight into how their body is currently functioning. This information is crucial for our doctors to determine whether the GLP-1 medication prescribed by the program is suitable for the patient.
Current scientific findings provide a better understanding of how our health & biology impact our weight. A new category of drugs, known as GLP-1s, tackle these biological elements directly.
GLP-1s are a type of medication called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). GLP-1s have been FDA and HSA-approved and deemed safe and effective for managing a number of conditions, including weight management and type 2 diabetes, when taken as directed. GLP-1 medications come in pre-filled injector pens and are self-administered through subcutaneous injection. GLP-1s help with weight management in the following ways:
Improves metabolic function
GLP-1s regulate blood sugar by stimulating insulin and inhibiting glucagon, while improving insulin sensitivity in muscle cells and regulating fat cell growth. This leads to improved metabolism and weight loss.
Regulates digestion
GLP-1s can improve digestion by slowing down the emptying of the stomach, leading to a longer feeling of fullness and reduced appetite. They also stimulate the release of enzymes and bile acids, which help to break down and absorb food more efficiently.

Continuing the medication prescribed by the Ease Body Program is recommended for long-term weight loss success, as it helps patients establish sustainable behavioural changes that prevent weight regain. The program’s objective is to ensure patients continue treatment until their desired weight loss goals are achieved and maintained. This will be discussed with your doctor during the check-in teleconsultations.
The Ease Body Program includes 2 teleconsultations with a doctor and unlimited medical support from our team of pharmacists who are available via text or call. To be put in touch with our medical please email us at customer.care@ease-healthcare.com.
The Ease Body Program has shown to help patients lose up to 15% of their body weight within one year, which is a significant improvement compared to patients who rely solely on behavioural changes to lose weight. In addition to weight loss, the medication used in the program has been linked to lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels, along with other positive physical and mental health improvements such as better sleep quality and improved mobility.
Typically, patients can expect to lose around 5% of their body weight by month 6 of the program while taking GLP-1 medication, with further weight loss of up to 10-15% achievable by month 12 if they choose to extend the treatment.
The Ease Body Program is a 6 month program (182 days). You may exit the program after month 1 if you do not wish to continue with the treatment and you will not be billed for subsequent months.
