Wondr Health, a leader in virtual metabolic health programs, has expanded its weight and obesity care solution, Wondr Plus, to offer enhanced lifestyle support and nutrition counseling for employees using GLP-1 weight-loss medications. This update addresses challenges such as medication adherence and side effects, which often lead to high discontinuation rates. Many individuals face difficulties with costs, side effects, and ineffective prescribing, potentially leading to treatment cessation and health risks. Wondr Plus tackles these issues with personalized guidance to optimize outcomes and support sustainable weight loss.
The program combines human expertise with digital resources to provide a comprehensive support system for GLP-1 users. Employees gain access to registered dietitians and certified health coaches for one-on-one counseling and accountability, along with tailored digital content on medication adherence, nutrition, exercise, and emotional well-being. Condition-specific tracks also address common metabolic issues like diabetes and musculoskeletal health.
As GLP-1 use and metabolic health challenges rise, employers increasingly seek scalable solutions to support their workforce and manage healthcare costs. Wondr Health’s comprehensive approach strengthens employee benefit plans and ensures long-term health improvements.
“It’s no secret GLP-1s are highly effective for weight loss—that’s what is driving demand and demand is increasing access,” said Tim Church, MD, MPH, PHD, Chief Medical Officer of Wondr Health. “People need personalized, expert obesity care and accountability to optimize and sustain health and quality of life outcomes.”
