Graded #50 · C
Strengths
- $119/mo all-in including medication, 1:1 physician consults, and unlimited messaging ($100-off-for-life intro promo)
- Both compounded (injectable + sublingual semaglutide/tirzepatide) and brand GLP-1 (Wegovy, Zepbound)
- Integrated fitness and nutrition/behavioral coaching (linked to the BodyFX brand)
- Publishes Terms, Privacy, and data-privacy policies; links to LegitScript verification
Where it loses points
- Promo-driven landing page; compounding pharmacy and legal entity not named
- Tirzepatide and brand pricing may differ from the advertised $119/mo plan
- LegitScript status links to a CAPTCHA-gated checker — not independently confirmed here
- Exact drug and dose are shown only after the intake quiz
Graded #336 · C
Strengths
- Offers a Responsible Prescribing track with optimized GLP-1 use
- Clinically monitored medication off-ramp toward nutrition therapy
- Nutrition-first model shown to rival GLP-1 weight loss (about 13% at 1 year)
- Provided at no cost to members through employers and health plans
- Strong evidence base for diabetes reversal and metabolic health
Where it loses points
- Primarily a nutrition program; GLP-1s are a secondary track
- Distributed via employers and health plans, no direct cash-pay
- Deliberately discourages GLP-1 use for most members
- GLP-1 access depends on the specific program the plan selects
