Measured vs Virta Health
The verdict
Measured takes it — 75.1/100 to 59.7/100.
Measured grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Measured is a metabolic-health membership pairing GLP-1 treatment with 1:1 nutrition support and board-certified provider care.
We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

Graded #58 · C
Strengths
- Membership includes 1:1 nutrition support and board-certified provider care
- Both compounded (from $79/mo microdose, $119 semaglutide, $229 tirzepatide) and brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound
- Insurance or cash-pay options for brand-name medications
- Oral option available (Wegovy pill); cancel-anytime membership
Where it loses points
- The headline $79 'GLP-1 Microdose' is a promotional rate off a $99 list price, is filed by the provider under longevity rather than weight loss, and is not a labelled therapeutic dose of either molecule
- Branded plans are a $49/mo membership with the medication billed separately at $149 to $449/mo
- The site never states which billing term its 'from' prices assume, though the terms allow monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual
- No state count is published
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products
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
