The masthead ledger
How we're funded
A magazine is only worth reading if you know who pays for it. Here is exactly who pays for this one.
MetabolicMoms is reader-supported and free to read. We keep it that way with affiliate links: when we send you to a provider and you sign up, that provider may pay us a referral fee. It never adds a cent to your cost. Rather than stamp a little “ad” badge on individual providers, we tell you the plain truth once, here — any provider on this masthead may have a commercial relationship with us, and you should read every recommendation with that in mind.
Partners and what we feature
Some providers we list are partners, and we may be paid when you sign up through our links. That can affect which providers we feature and where they appear: CoreAge Rx is a featured partner, and providers we work with may appear first. Scores are our own.
The Editors' Rating is scored on six weighted factors under one published rubric, and a referral fee is not one of them — a commission does not change a score. The rating is printed beside every provider, alongside the pricing and the catches in each review, so you can weigh every provider for yourself.
Who runs this desk
MetabolicMoms is an independent publisher. We are not a pharmacy, a telehealth company, or a drug manufacturer, and we hold no relationship with any provider or maker beyond ordinary affiliate agreements. We do not attempt to cover every brand in the market — the ones we review are the ones our readers, as mothers, keep asking about. Meet the editors on our masthead.
A starting point, not a prescription
Choosing a GLP-1 provider is a personal health decision, and our reporting is a place to begin it — not medical advice. Compounded GLP-1 medications are not FDA-approved finished drug products, and GLP-1 medicines are not appropriate during pregnancy or while trying to conceive. Pricing and availability change constantly; confirm the current details on any provider's own site, and talk to a licensed clinician before you start. See our medical disclaimer.
