Mobile Health Consumer, a digital health and wellbeing solutions provider, has announced the launch of two programs: the GLP-1 Prerequisite Program and the GLP-1 Lifestyle Support Program. Both programs aim to foster healthier lifestyle habits before, during and after medication use.

Mobile Health’s programs provide comprehensive support aimed at increasing the effectiveness of medications with the goal of reducing long-term healthcare costs.
The first program is a digital GLP-1 prerequisite program, building a foundation for success and equipping employees with knowledge on nutrition, physical activity and sustainable lifestyle changes before starting GLP-1 medication.
Employees can also integrate wearable devices, Bluetooth scales, activity trackers and health data into the program, which also provides customized weight management, nutrition and fitness education and mental health support.
The second is Digital GLP-1 Life Support. The program provides employees with tools during and after GLP-1 treatment and emphasizes the importance of lasting lifestyle changes.
Employees can also integrate wearable devices, Bluetooth scales, activity trackers and health data into the program.
“GLP-1 drugs offer a powerful tool in the fight against obesity and related chronic diseases, but true success cannot be achieved with drugs alone,” John Halloran, CEO of Mobile Health Consumer, said in a statement.
“Our program not only prepares employees for GLP-1 treatment with proper weight management and lifestyle education, but also helps them maintain healthy habits long after they stop taking the medication.”
