Visit Genesis Lifestyle Medicine →Two GLP-1 Providers chasing the same patients, trading off price, geography and what lands in the box differently. On our scoring, Embody starts at $79/mo, and Embody finishes ahead, 9.3 to 4.0. What follows: the prices, what each plan actually covers, the six-dimension score, where each one is weak, and who should pick which.
Pricing
Embody
Checkout: '$79/mo flat forever' (strikethrough $299); bundles $76/$73/$69 per month on 3/6/12-mo. CAVEAT: T&C list price is $199/mo — the $79 depends on the auto-applied SUMMER promo marketed as permanently locked; Trustpilot complaints allege the lock was not always honored.
Checkout tile 'Flat rate at $119/month (strikethrough $349)'; homepage 'starting at $129/month'; bundles $126/$123/$119 per month.
New oral semaglutide $229/mo.

About Embody
Embody sells compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide by injection, plus a compounded oral tirzepatide gum that is unique in the category. Flat-rate pricing is aggressive, coverage runs to all 50 states, and clinician messaging is available 24/7 under a board-certified internal medicine CMO.

Eighteen clinics spread over 8 states back up the telehealth side, so accountability has a physical address, which few direct-to-consumer GLP-1 sellers can claim. The medical spa covers hair restoration, aesthetics, hormone therapy and weight loss. On weight loss it carries compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide as well as branded Wegovy and Zepbound, meaning a patient who wants an FDA-approved drug does not have to go elsewhere.

Embody
What we like
- Semaglutide at $79 a month, 58% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $129 a month, 52% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- Names 4 dispensing pharmacies, which most sellers in this register do not do
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
- Both oral and injectable options are on record, so the format is a choice rather than a condition
Watch-outs
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
Genesis Lifestyle Medicine
What we like
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- Coverage is published for 8 states only, so this may not reach you
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
Our Verdict
Embody takes it, 9.3 against 4.0, and it is especially strong on knowing which pharmacy fills the vial — it names RedRock Pharmacy. Genesis Lifestyle Medicine is no weak second and may fit you better on a published state list — 8 of 50 — when most of the register publishes none.

Choose Genesis Lifestyle Medicine if…
You want a published state list — 8 of 50 — when most of the register publishes none.
