The GLP-1 Market is Booming - Here’s why Mobile Body Scanners are Next

GLP-1s are taking the world by storm

Over the last few years, GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy have transformed the landscape for weight loss and metabolic health. These drugs have rocketed the global GLP-1 market to staggering heights, with industry analysts projecting growth from $49.3B in 2024 to $157.5B by 2035 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1%. This surge is powered by the incredible effectiveness of GLP-1s at driving clinically significant weight loss and improving metabolic markers for millions worldwide. As GLP-1s become a mainstay of modern healthcare, the industries connected to weight management and metabolic health are experiencing unprecedented momentum and demand for next generation solutions.
