Worried about the impact of GLP-1 shortages on your employees? Calibrate has shown that medication is a tool—not the entire treatment. Our comprehensive lifestyle intervention empowers members to achieve sustainable weight loss—with or without continuous medication, and we have the data to back it up. Calibrate recently conducted a real-world analysis of medication access and clinical outcomes for obesity treatment with GLP-1s. This analysis, presented at the Endocrine Society, reveals that even with significant gaps in medication access, Calibrate members achieved clinically significant weight loss outcomes. Key Findings:  - Members who did not experience a 13-week medication disruption over 24 months achieved an average weight loss of 17.28% at their 12-month mark.  - Members who experienced a medication disruption of at least 13 weeks over the same period still saw an impressive average weight loss of 14.96% Whether on a GLP-1 or not, Calibrate members lose weight—and keep it off, for good.

With the ever-changing dietary guidelines and the contradictory information in the media—it’s no wonder why we struggle to eat healthy. At Calibrate, our food philosophy is intuitive, sustainable, and simple. Calibrate is not a diet—there’s no calorie counting, restriction, or meal replacements. Instead, we focus on eating nutrient-dense whole foods, while minimizing foods that negatively impact your metabolic health. Calibrate is built around the best nutrition practices shown to reduce cardiometabolic conditions and support long-term weight health. Our research-backed Calibrate Food Triangle helps you learn how to quickly and effectively assess foods by looking at how processed they are and the quality of nutrients they contain. In our Cooking With Calibrate event series, our wonderful Senior Director of Content and Program Content Strategy, Drew Salvatore, walks members through the ins and outs of health-promoting foods and shares easy recipes that bring the Calibrate food program to life. The combination of food as medicine and anti-obesity drugs is a powerful combination that changes your biology and gives you the tools to sustain long-term weight loss and improved metabolic function. “The combination of meds, curriculum, and coaching have re-trained my brain in the way I look at food and nutrition,” says a Calibrate member. “Regaining control of my health is the most rewarding part of this whole experience. Calibrate was at the forefront of using this combination to help people achieve real and lasting results for the first time in their lives, I feel fortunate to have been on the first wave of pioneers.” To learn more about our food philosophy check out our blog: https://lnkd.in/e6Cirz9N #FoodAsMedicine #WholeFoods #Nutrition
