First in class
GLP-1
Certification
For foods, meals & beverages
The certification that tells 30+ million GLP-1 consumers your product was made for them.
Why GLP-1 certification
Food brands are adding "GLP-1 Friendly" to packaging, but there is no regulatory definition behind the term. Each brand decides for itself what it means.
GLP Certified™ gives brands a published, independent nutrition standard for people using GLP-1 medications, so the claim on your package means something specific. See our standards
How GLP-1 certification works
-
Send us your product's nutrition panel, ingredient list, and formulation details.
-
We audit it against the eight GLP Certified™ criteria and send you a written report, usually within 5 business days.
-
Qualifying products earn the GLP Certified™ mark. Products that come close get a clear path to qualify through our Revision Program.
Who it's for
Food and beverage brands, meal kit companies, and the R&D and marketing teams developing products for GLP-1 consumers.
Our Certifications
Submit one finished product for a full review against the GLP Certified™ standard. We measure your nutrition panel, ingredient list and formulation against all eight published criteria: protein density, protein quality, fiber type and timing, energy density, fat load and type, micronutrient contribution, added sugar and processing, and GI tolerability.
Products that pass earn a license to display the GLP Certified™ mark on packaging and marketing, showing consumers and retailers that the product meets a published, independent nutrition standard for people using GLP-1 medications.
What's included:
Full review of your nutrition panel, ingredient list and formulation
Assessment against all eight GLP Certified™ criteria
Written audit report with a clear determination: certified, certified with conditions, or declined
GLP Certified™ mark license and PR package (if certified)
One round of remediation guidance if the product doesn't pass
Most audits are completed within 5 business days of a complete submission.
Ideal for brands launching a single SKU or trying certification before committing a full product line.
For products that didn't pass their initial audit, have been reformulated, or have a "new and improved" recipe. Instead of starting over with a full audit, you get a focused re-review of what changed, measured against the same eight GLP Certified™ criteria.
Certification is revisited any time a product is reformulated, so this program also keeps certified products current after a supplier or recipe change.
What's included:
Accepts failed audits, reformulated products and recipe updates
Detailed remediation report for previously failed products, with specific guidance tied to the criteria
Focused re-review of changed ingredients and formulation
Direct access to the review team during revision
Priority re-review on resubmission
Up to two additional revision rounds before a new full audit is required
GLP Certified™ mark license upon certification
Ideal for brands whose products need targeted reformulation or re-verification after an ingredient change.
