GLP-1 Transformation
Semaglutide
The foundational physician-directed GLP-1 program — refined dosing, supervised by a licensed clinician, delivered to your door.
Available by consultation
003 — Semaglutide protocol, placeholder.
Overview
How Semaglutide works
A weekly injection that mirrors a hormone your body already makes — recalibrating appetite, satiety, and metabolic signaling.
- 01Quiets appetite and food noise
- 02Improves metabolic markers in published trials
- 03Sustained weight management with continued treatment
- 01Mimics natural GLP-1
- A long-acting analog of glucagon-like peptide-1 — the satiety hormone your gut releases after a meal.
- 02Slows gastric emptying
- Food stays in the stomach longer. Satiety arrives sooner and lasts longer between meals.
- 03Quiets appetite signaling
- Acts on the brain's hunger pathways, reducing the constant food noise that drives unconscious overeating.
Who It’s For
A considered fit, not a funnel.
Adults seeking a foundational, supervised approach to weight management — and the ongoing care that makes results sustainable.
The Right Fit
- Adults 18+ with a BMI of 27 or higher, or 25+ with weight-related conditions
- Patients who want a physician-directed program rather than a vending-machine prescription
- Members optimizing for steady, monitored progress over months — not a quick fix
Not Appropriate For
- Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2
- Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or planning pregnancy
- Active pancreatitis or untreated severe gastrointestinal disease

The Glow Standard
A standard of care built for people who expect more than telehealth.
- 01Physician-Directed
- Founded and directed by Dr. Adrienne Guthrie. Every program is informed by functional medicine, supported by a nationwide network of licensed providers, and built around the patient — not a product line.
- 02Premium Sourcing
- Compounded by partner pharmacies, prepared per protocol, delivered in discreet temperature-controlled packaging. Sourcing is a quiet promise we keep — never a marketing line.
- 03White-Glove Concierge
- A real care team, not a chatbot. Direct messaging, structured check-ins, dose adjustments at every transition, and the kind of follow-through you would expect from a private practice.
“If you stay active in your program for 6 months, follow your treatment plan, and do not achieve meaningful progress, we will work with you at no additional membership cost until you do.”

Safety
No medication is right for everyone.
01
Common side effects
Most common during titration: mild nausea, fatigue, or digestive changes that typically resolve as the body adjusts to each dose increase. Your provider supports you through every transition.
02
Who shouldn’t take this
Not appropriate for patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, or for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Full medical history is reviewed before any prescription is authorized.
Glow protocols are prepared by partner compounding pharmacies in the United States. Compounding pharmacies are regulated by both state boards and the FDA and have been part of American medicine since long before mass-manufactured drugs existed. The active ingredient is prepared per your protocol — supervised by your provider — and delivered direct to your door.
Members
From members of the Semaglutide program.
“After fifteen years of trying everything, the food noise just stopped. The first week was strange. The first month was the proof. I am still surprised.”
“What I did not expect was how normal it would feel. I am not white-knuckling anything. I eat when hungry and stop when full. That is the whole story.”
“My provider adjusted my dose three times to find what worked for me. That kind of attention is what I never got from regular doctors. The supervision is what makes this safe.”
