First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 21, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This trial tests whether two specific diet plans can help people with obesity or overweight maintain weight loss after stopping semaglutide (Wegovy). Many patients regain weight quickly when they stop the drug. The study compares a special dietary pattern called NutriAct plus with a rescue very low calorie diet for those who regain weight. Participants must have a BMI of 27 or higher with risk factors, or 30 or higher, and cannot have type 2 diabetes or certain other conditions.

- What this could lead to

- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention study, not a drug trial, so results depend heavily on adherence. The diets may not be sustainable for everyone, and weight regain could still occur.
