The Vitamin Shoppe has introduced a new line of dietary supplements known as GLP-1 Support from Whole Health Rx, aimed at meeting the nutritional requirements of individuals using GLP-1 medications for weight management. This product range encompasses five categories: protein, fiber, probiotics, multivitamins, and a comprehensive nutrient solution.
These supplements are available exclusively at The Vitamin Shoppe and Super Supplements locations across the country, as well as on their website. The development of these products was influenced by the increasing use of GLP-1 medications, which can affect appetite, digestion, and nutrient absorption. Muriel Gonzalez, President of The Vitamin Shoppe, noted the importance of tailored nutritional support in this context.
The GLP-1 Support collection is formulated with clinically studied ingredients and developed in collaboration with dietitians and the Whole Health Rx Medical Advisory Council to address dietary gaps and side effects associated with GLP-1 medications. Key products in the range include a nutrient powder that serves as a meal replacement, a protein supplement designed to counteract muscle loss, a fiber supplement to aid digestion, a synbiotic for gut health, and specialized multivitamins for both men and women.
Tabitha Daley, a Registered Dietitian nutritionist at The Vitamin Shoppe, emphasized the challenges GLP-1 users face in finding appropriate nutritional products and the goal of this new line to provide science-backed solutions to support their health during weight loss.
