Calibrate focuses on sustainable weight loss by improving metabolic health instead of relying on traditional dieting methods. Their program combines gradual habit changes with medication that targets biological factors affecting weight. This approach is based on extensive research and claims to be the first to achieve a 15% sustained weight loss in real-world settings. Calibrate operates on a subscription model, often supported by employers as part of employee wellness programs, but individuals can also subscribe. The program utilizes GLP-1 medications, which help with inflammation, digestion, metabolic function, and cardiovascular health. Unlike many competitors, Calibrate's program is designed to be non-restrictive and easy to maintain, and they offer a money-back guarantee if users do not see results. The goal of Calibrate is to provide an effective and sustainable solution for weight loss and improved health.
