About us, in one sentence: we are an independent editorial team that helps people in the United States understand and compare medically supervised weight-loss options, from GLP-1 medications to telehealth programs and their real costs.
What we cover
We cover weight loss only: telehealth programs that include a prescription, prescription weight-loss medications (GLP-1s and others), costs and insurance, side effects and safety, and the nutrition, tracking and fitness products that support treatment. We read the fine print so you don’t have to: pricing pages, cancellation terms, FDA labels and safety communications, and the clinical research behind each treatment. Then we explain it in plain English.
Who we are
Each of our five sections has its own writer: Rachel Moreno (GLP-1 medications), Daniel Okafor (telehealth programs), Priya Raman (cost and insurance), Megan Holloway (nutrition and lifestyle) and Thomas Reyes (safety and research). These are pen names used by the members of our small editorial team, so each section keeps one consistent voice. None of them is a clinician, and we don’t present them as doctors, dietitians or patients. Our articles go through a fact-check and a health and safety review, described in our methodology. Our editorial policy and corrections policy set the rules we follow.
What we are not
We are not a medical provider, a pharmacy or a telehealth company. We do not prescribe, sell or ship medication, and nothing on this site is medical advice. Only a licensed clinician who knows your health history can tell you whether a treatment is right for you.
