Basal Health vs Youth & Soul
The verdict
Youth & Soul takes it — 61.6/100 to 47.7/100.
Youth & Soul grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Ten-vertical telehealth marketplace selling compounded GLP-1 tiers alongside HRT, ED, nootropics and peptides, running on the Bask Health platform.

Graded #494 · C
Strengths
- Stated nationwide coverage (50 states + DC)
- Metabolic-framework positioning rather than single-product
- Clinician-supervised dosing rather than a fixed protocol
- Adaptive monitoring approach
Where it loses points
- No pricing shown publicly — you must complete intake to see cost
- Compounding pharmacy partner not named
- GLP-1 molecules not specified (semaglutide vs tirzepatide vs oral)
- No LegitScript badge visible on the homepage
- No FDA compounded-medication disclaimer on the pages reviewed
Graded #291 · C
Strengths
- Three GLP-1 tiers priced openly, with the dose range and every included component listed per tier
- Full refund advertised if you are not approved
- Physician consultation, prescription and shipping stated as included in the plan price
- Ten treatment verticals under one account, from GLP-1 to HRT, peptides and mental health
Where it loses points
- Describes its compounded medications as FDA-Approved Compounds, which is false: compounded drugs are not FDA-approved
- Presents scraped third-party comments as testimonials, several using Reddit usernames and some describing brand Wegovy or Mounjaro
- Its own copy promises never to fabricate testimonials while displaying those scraped comments
- Homepage trust counters render as 0K+ medical professionals, 0.0M+ patients and 0M+ successful orders
- Labels its compounded tirzepatide a Mounjaro compound, conflating a compounded drug with the brand
