Graded #417 · C
Strengths
- Founder is named and credentialed: Dr. Amy Lee, MD, triple board-certified in Internal Medicine, Obesity Medicine and Clinical Nutrition
- Cites SURMOUNT-1 properly, naming the trial, the 20.9% average and the Jastreboff NEJM 2022 source
- Discloses that featured patients were compensated for their time
- Labels its NAD+ decline chart as illustrative and not a measurement, with an unusually careful methodology note
- Offers compounded, microdosed and brand-name Ozempic and Zepbound in one catalogue
Where it loses points
- No price is published anywhere; every option is gated behind a three-minute quiz
- The LegitScript badge is a self-hosted image with generic alt text rather than the issued embed, so the certification could not be verified
- A BBB Accredited A+ claim is displayed without a link to the BBB profile
- No state list and no named pharmacy, only licensed U.S. pharmacies
- Before-and-after photographs are used alongside compensated testimonials
Graded #218 · C
Strengths

- Compounded semaglutide (~$239) and tirzepatide (from $299), plus NAD+
- Structured metabolic-health program with provider support and accountability
- HSA/FSA eligible with flexible payment options
Where it loses points
- Doesn't clearly publish which states its telehealth covers
- Tirzepatide tiers climb to $339-$399/month
- More program structure (and cost) than medication-only sellers
- Compounded GLP-1 only online — no brand-name options noted
