The StudyBackedHealth team
We exist because health product marketing is loud, and the actual evidence is quiet. We read the studies so you don't have to.
Our mission
Help adults — especially those 50 and over — make GLP-1 and health product decisions with evidence, not advertising. Every ranking on this site is built from two inputs: published, peer-reviewed clinical research, and aggregated real owner reports from patient communities and review platforms. Never from commissions.
How we work
We publish as a team rather than as individuals. What we put our names behind is the method: a 31-point scoring rubric applied identically to every provider, scores locked before any affiliate relationship is examined, and a public corrections log when we get something wrong.
We are an analysis operation, not a testing lab — we do not personally test prescription products, and we're skeptical of sites that claim to. Our value is in reading the actual trials, separating what the data shows from what the marketing says, and aggregating what real users report across Reddit, Trustpilot, and the BBB.
Medical review
Articles that make medical claims are reviewed for accuracy by a licensed, credentialed clinician — named, verified against their state licensing board, and linked on every article they review. This review is for accuracy; it is not a substitute for advice from your own clinician.
Our founding medical reviewer joins this page soon — credential verification is in progress, and no article will carry a "medically reviewed" line until it's complete.
Funding
The site is reader-supported through affiliate commissions, governed by one rule: scoring happens before commissions are ever checked. The full picture is on how we make money.
