🚨 The GLP-1 cost crisis is real—and growing. But what if you could cut usage in half while still driving meaningful weight loss and saving millions? Early results are in: Virta is doing exactly that. 👇 💊 >50% reduction in ongoing GLP-1 use for weight loss ⚖️ ~5% average weight loss in just 90 days—with or without GLP-1s, with previously reported one year weight loss outcomes of 13% without GLP-1s 💰 Major cost savings for payers, without compromising outcomes Demand for smart and sustainable weight loss care has fueled Virta’s revenue growth to 80% in Q1'25, up from 60% in 2024. As employers and health plans face soaring GLP-1 costs projected to top $100B annually, Virta has shown that the future of weight loss care doesn’t rely on expensive, lifetime prescriptions. This isn’t just cost control—it’s the responsible approach to addressing obesity and covering GLP-1s while maximizing health outcomes.

“Most people regain the weight.” That’s what the research says about stopping GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro or Ozempic. But this member didn’t. In fact—they lost 20 more pounds after stopping the drug and joining Virta for a structured, sustainable approach to nutrition. Expert coaching, daily biomarker tracking, lifestyle support, and real accountability makes for a powerfully effective off-ramp. Brad's not alone. For the millions seeking a long-term alternative to costly medications, Virta offers more than hope—we offer a proven path forward. https://lnkd.in/gv4iKMVz #VirtaHealth #GLP1 #MetabolicHealth #WeightLoss #Nutrition

Nutrition isn’t as easy as "eat less, move more." Yet, the core of healthy eating can be remarkably simple: prioritizing proteins and healthy fats, mitigating sugar and processed foods, and above all, consistency. 💪 Our founder + CEO Sami Inkinen sits down with Christina Farr, Luba Greenwood, J.D., and Ash Zenooz, MD to talk about the power of food in reversing chronic diseases, how flexibility and intense personalization promotes sustainability, and the impact of popular weight loss drugs like GLP1s.

We’re excited to share data on the safety of Virta’s approach for individuals on Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Key findings include: ✅ Virta’s approach does not raise the risk of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) ✅ Virta’s monitoring appears to offer a reasonably safe way for individuals to combine very low carb nutrition with SGLT2 inhibitors. This is a significant step forward in ensuring the safety and effectiveness of our treatment for a broader range of patients.
