According to a Gallup survey released in July 2026, approximately 11% of U.S. adults now report taking a GLP-1 medication for weight loss, compared with 3% in 2024, while nationwide obesity rates have declined from 39.9% in 2022 to 36.4%. As interest in medical weight-management programs continues to grow, Colón is expanding his educational resources to help adults better understand their options and prepare for informed discussions with licensed healthcare professionals.
“The best healthcare decisions are informed healthcare decisions,” said Anthony Colón, RN. “My goal is to help people become educated healthcare consumers who know the right questions to ask before making important health decisions and who understand the importance of working with qualified healthcare professionals.”
The educational resources are designed to help adults understand weight-management options, evaluate telehealth providers, and prepare for informed conversations with licensed healthcare professionals. Rather than recommending a single approach, the materials emphasize patient education, transparency, and realistic expectations.
Topics include guidance on understanding the differences between FDA-approved medications and compounded alternatives, verifying a prescribing clinician’s licensure, understanding what a comprehensive medical evaluation should include before beginning treatment, and recognizing the importance of pharmacy transparency and medication sourcing.
The educational library also discusses practical considerations that adults may wish to evaluate when comparing telehealth programs, including total program costs, membership fees, laboratory testing, follow-up care, shipping policies, provider accessibility, and ongoing medical support. Colón emphasizes that successful long-term care extends beyond receiving a prescription and includes appropriate monitoring, communication, and individualized medical follow-up.
Additional resources explain commonly reported GLP-1 side effects, including nausea, constipation, and gastrointestinal discomfort, while encouraging patients to communicate promptly with their healthcare provider regarding concerning symptoms or questions. The materials also highlight potential warning signs when evaluating telehealth marketing, including unrealistic promises, high-pressure sales tactics, and a lack of transparency regarding clinician credentials or program policies.
Drawing on both his nursing background and his personal experience of losing more than 165 pounds through lifestyle changes and medically supervised care, Colón emphasizes that sustainable long-term success is built on healthy nutrition, regular physical activity, ongoing medical guidance when appropriate, and realistic expectations rather than relying on any single intervention alone.
All educational materials are intended for general informational purposes only and are not a substitute for individualized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Adults considering weight-management treatment, including GLP-1 therapies, should consult a licensed healthcare professional to determine what options may be appropriate based on their individual medical history, health status, and treatment goals.
Colón plans to continue expanding his educational library with evidence-informed articles, videos, and practical resources that empower adults to make confident healthcare decisions while working alongside licensed healthcare professionals.
