Medifast (NYSE:MED) has launched OPTAVIA ASCEND, a new high-protein product line featuring mini meals and daily nutrient packs. The products are part of two science-backed nutrition plans targeting GLP-1 medication users and individuals seeking weight maintenance support.

The launch addresses critical challenges in the weight management market, particularly the fact that two-thirds of weight lost on GLP-1 medications is typically regained within 12 months of stopping treatment. Additionally, muscle loss on these medications can equal up to a decade of natural muscle loss within 12-18 months.

OPTAVIA ASCEND combines high-protein products with personalized coaching support and builds on Medifast's existing collaboration with LifeMD for GLP-1 medication access. The products are designed to provide essential nutrients promoting muscle, digestive, and bone health while supporting long-term weight management success through proper nutrition and lifestyle habits.

Studies indicate that FDA-approved GLP-1 medications combined with lifestyle modification programs like OPTAVIA may help achieve an average 15% body weight reduction. Medifast's approach incorporates both medication support and coaching for comprehensive weight management.
