Nucific vs Steady State Health
The verdict
Nucific takes it — 56.2/100 to 54.9/100, but only just.
Nucific grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. GLP-1 and NAD+ telehealth founded by triple board-certified physician Dr. Steady State Health is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.

Graded #418 · 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 #452 · C
Strengths
- Prescribes semaglutide or tirzepatide within a perimenopause and menopause hormone-and-metabolic care plan
- Care delivered by a named women's-health nurse practitioner (Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C)
- Transparent flat program fee from $139/mo, with a $99/mo standalone GLP-1 support option
Where it loses points
- Available only to Oregon and Washington residents
- GLP-1 medication is billed separately by the pharmacy and not included in the program fee
- Dispensing pharmacy is not publicly named
