Graded #288 · C
Strengths
- Offers both semaglutide and tirzepatide with injectable and oral formats
- Functional-medicine approach with at-home labs and blood-work interpretation
- Unlimited coaching and ongoing support included
- No long-term contracts
- Board-certified doctors and nurse practitioners referenced
Where it loses points

Graded #222 · C
Strengths
- Verifiable LegitScript certification (seal ID 50400451) plus a named board-certified physician (Dr. Michael Wasef, MD) licensed in all 50 states
- Full GLP-1 lineup: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, plus gentler microdose entry options
- Generous support — unlimited care-team messaging, monthly check-ins, dosage adjustments, and 1 free blood test per quarter on the GLP-1 protocols
- Available in all 50 states with free priority shipping, discreet packaging, and roughly 48-hour delivery
- Transparent multi-month pricing with 50% off your first month; semaglutide protocols are compounded with B12
Where it loses points
- The advertised $299 is a struck-through anchor price, not a starting point: the real month-to-month rate is $299, a first month runs $149 at 50% off, and the $199 rate needs six months
- The page states its pricing is 'introductory and subject to change', so none of these figures is committed to
- The tirzepatide price is published the same way, against a struck-through anchor, and we could not establish which figure a buyer actually pays
- A separate semaglutide microdose is sold at $99/mo — a sub-therapeutic protocol, not a cheaper weight-loss dose
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
