Virtual GLP-1 support: a short, non-randomised evaluation
A twelve-week quasi-experimental study compared a virtual programme with physical-activity coaching against usual care.
A twelve-week quasi-experimental study compared a virtual programme with physical-activity coaching against usual care. The authors reported greater weight loss and changes in body-composition percentages in the programme group. Allocation was not randomised and body composition was measured using home impedance scales. A higher muscle percentage is not proof that absolute muscle mass increased. The study does not evaluate SHIFT or establish long-term effectiveness.
