9amHealth vs Tuyo Health
The verdict
Tuyo Health takes it — 72.5/100 to 71.3/100, but only just.
Tuyo Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Tuyo Health (tuyohealth.com) is a US telehealth weight-loss program founded by Dr. German Echeverry that offers both compounded and brand-name GLP-1 medication. 9amHealth is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
