The Vitamin Shoppe Launches Supplements For GLP-1 Users
The Vitamin Shoppe has launched a new line of dietary supplements designed to address the health and nutritional needs of individuals using GLP-1 medications for weight management.
Sold under the Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe, the supplement range provides targeted support for GLP-1 users across five essential categories: protein, fiber, probiotics, multivitamins, and a comprehensive all-in-one nutrient solution. The products are said by the retailer to be doctor-approved and dietitian-formulated.
"With the surge in GLP-1 medication use for weight loss, we recognized a critical gap in the market for tailored nutritional support," said Muriel Gonzalez, president of The Vitamin Shoppe. "GLP-1 medications can significantly impact appetite, digestion, and nutrient absorption, making supplementation essential. Building on the expertise of The Vitamin Shoppe's Whole Health Rx telehealth platform, we developed these new GLP-1 Support products as an easy-to-understand, one-stop solution for consumers seeking a balanced and holistic approach to weight loss and nutrient supplementation."
According to the company, the products are formulated with premium, clinically studied ingredients, in close consultation with dietitians and the Whole Health Rx Medical Advisory Council. The GLP-1 Support from Whole Health Rx collection is specifically designed to address common dietary gaps and side effects associated with GLP-1 medications:
- GLP-1 Support Nutrient Powder: The meal replacement provides 25 grams of protein, 24 essential vitamins & minerals, digestive enzymes, fiber, and a full serving of Truserv greens. This all-in-one formula is said to help maintain lean muscle mass, support digestion, and replenish key nutrients often depleted by reduced food intake.
- GLP-1 Support Protein: Offering 30 grams of whey protein, 5 grams of collagen for skin health (which is often impacted by weight loss), and muscle-preserving ingredients like myHMB and PeptiStrong, this formula helps counteract muscle loss — a key concern for GLP-1 users.
- GLP-1 Support Fiber: With 15 grams of fiber per serving to support digestion, this advanced blend includes antioxidant-rich Natureknit fruit and vegetable fiber, Inavea acacia fiber, and Fibersol-2, clinically shown to enhance GLP-1 activity.
- GLP-1 Support Synbiotic: A triple-action gut health solution, combining PreForPro prebiotic, HOWARU Shape probiotic, and ButyraGen postbiotic, to optimize digestion, immune health, and Akkermansia production—a beneficial gut bacteria linked to weight management and metabolic health.
- GLP-1 Support Multivitamins (Men's & Women's Formulas): These advanced daily multivitamins provide a host of essential nutrients across energy, metabolism, brain, heart, and immune health. Formulated with Suntheanine for stress support, plus ginger for occasional nausea—two common concerns among GLP-1 users.
"GLP-1 users face specific nutritional challenges, and finding products tailored to these needs can be challenging," said Tabitha Daley, a registered dietitian nutritionist with The Vitamin Shoppe who helped formulate the GLP-1 Support from Whole Health Rx products. "Our goal was to create an accessible, science-backed system that fills essential nutrient gaps, while also helping individuals feel their best throughout their weight-loss journey by addressing nutrition-related issues that are associated with GLP-1 drugs."
