Metabolyz vs Sunlight.com
The verdict
Sunlight.com takes it — 85.4/100 to 59.6/100.
Sunlight.com grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. One of the cheapest published rates in the ranking — semaglutide $88/mo, tirzepatide $157/mo, flat and stated never to rise — from a LegitScript-certified telehealth with two named, NPI-verified physicians.
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 #346 · C
Strengths
- Three GLP-1 programs: standard semaglutide, dual-agonist tirzepatide, and a microdose protocol for near-goal or dose-sensitive patients
- Nutrition, movement, and lifestyle coaching included in all programs at no extra charge
- Medication compounded in licensed 503A/503B US pharmacies with temperature-controlled, unmarked direct-to-door delivery
- Licensed provider supervision with direct messaging access and structured check-ins throughout
- Telehealth across all 50 states; BMI 27+ eligibility (25+ with weight-related condition)
Where it loses points
- Pricing is fully gated — not disclosed until after consultation, preventing upfront cost comparison
- Compounded GLP-1 only — no brand-name options (Wegovy, Zepbound) available
- No LegitScript certification or named medical leadership found on public-facing pages
- Labs not mentioned as included — unclear whether baseline or follow-up bloodwork is offered
- Newer brand with no external reviews, published outcomes data, or notable accreditations
Graded #7 · B
Strengths
- Cheapest published semaglutide in this ranking ($88/mo) with competitively priced tirzepatide ($157/mo), both flat and stated to never increase — not quiz-gated, the FAQ states the exact figures
- LegitScript-certified with two named physicians and public NPI numbers (Lion MD network), rather than an anonymous "licensed clinicians" claim
- No membership fee, cancel anytime, free shipping in 1-2 days, a fresh 4-week supply every month
- All 50 states served, plus a separate live NAD+ program on the same domain
Where it loses points
- Injection only — the hero banner's "Injections and oral options available" line does not match the live site: no oral GLP-1 product page exists and sunlight.com/oral-semaglutide/ 404s
- The $157 tirzepatide figure sits inside a collapsed FAQ accordion rather than the hero, so it takes one extra click to find even though it is genuinely on the page
- Sermorelin is marketed as "launching soon" and is not yet live — do not expect it today
- No published lab or monitoring cadence, and the compounding pharmacy partner is referenced only generically, not named
