Why Virta’s Nutrition Therapy Works
Virta helps you use fat instead of carbohydrates as your main fuel source. This helps you lose weight and control blood sugar, without needing medication.

Exactly. Virta is savvy enough to see the train wreck that is sure to come with the expanded prescriptions of GLP-1s and the need to pick up the pieces when people can no longer continue with these chemicals. Virta is a low carb approach that has a history of success with a business model to sell their services to companies and organizations where people who have T2D or pre-T2D can follow the Virta program. Dr. Sarah Hallberg was a board member who was on the team that designed the Virta program. They've had tremendous success, and for those many failed GLP-1 experiences that are sure to increase, I would go with a low-carb, keto approach as an alternative to achieve a healthy weight and metabolism. Those who have stopped GLP-1s have not had a positive experience. Much healthier to do it naturally, but the issue in today's society is that it takes time and conviction, two things no one seems to want to apply.
