iHerb's GLP-1 Support Products Mitigate Rapid Weight Loss Side Effects
Laura McQuarrie — June 27, 2024 — Lifestyle
With increased use of GLP-1 medications, there's a growing demand for products that alleviate the side effects of rapid weight loss, and iHerb debuted three new GLP-1 support products to help. "Our goal was to create products that addressed the side effects of GLP-1 head-on, from improved digestive function, to enhanced metabolism and blood sugar support, and better-retained muscle mass," said iHerb's Chief Scientific Advisor, Dr. Michael Murray, "Each of these products was carefully designed using the highest-quality natural ingredients to ensure optimal effectiveness."
iHerb's leading house brand of vitamins, minerals and supplements, California Gold Nutrition, debuted CollagenUP Plus to prevent muscle loss, regulate blood sugar levels, minimize nausea and bloating and support skin firmness. This water mix-in is enhanced with a prebiotic fiber blend for better digestive health and muscle health.
Also in the lineup, Digestion Pro features Prodigest, a patented plant-based blend formulated to optimize digestive function, and Berberine Advanced for gut health, heart health, weight management and blood sugar level regulation.
