Frontline heroes, teachers offered large discounts on weight loss solutions

JACKSON, Tenn. — Over 100 million Americans face weight-related challenges, and 1 in 6 deaths in our country are linked to obesity.

There are promising new treatments available, however, shortages and high costs are leaving people without help.

Hims and Hers is a company that is attempting to break down these barriers by making effective treatments affordable.

First responders, teachers, and many others who help our communities are getting a 50% discount on these medications.

Also, Hims and Hers offers online help for these individuals.

You can contact a doctor 24/7 to ask questions, get feedback, and get assistance with anything you need regarding weight loss.

“Advice on nutrition, physical activity, it’s about mental health support and really understanding that mental health and weight are intrinsically linked,” said Dr. Jessica Yu. “It’s about getting cheerleading and coaching and encouragement. It’s incredible what we can do to improve the lives of our first responders, our veterans, and our frontline heroes in this way.”

GLP 1 medications are what is being offered through Hims and Hers.
