Hey Product Hunters 👋 -- My co-founder Marc and I founded Lever Health to make it easier to get healthy and lose weight in the long term. 🏋️ We're not about short term solutions, our goal is to help people build small healthy habits that help them to build a healthier lifestyle over time. 💪 We start by connecting you to a Certified Health Coach 👩‍💻 who will work with you 1:1 to improve your habits across 🥗nutrition, fitness 🏃🏽‍♀ , and sleep 💤. We're not a bot -- we believe that personalization is key to really change your habits, and we connect you to a real person who can help you figure out what getting healthy means to you. 👩‍💻 Health Coaching works to drive long term sustainable behavior change that results in weight loss 📉. A health coach is trained to develop the goals and motivation a person has, and facilitate changes to help them improve their health and well-being. 💥 We designed Lever Health for people who are finally ready to "get healthy" but aren't sure where to start. 🤔 Lever is for people who have tried calorie counting and going to the gym more — but that didn’t work. For people who want to take the guesswork out of getting healthy and prove to them that it doesn’t have to be hard. ✔️ 🙌 We help people build healthier habits through education 📖, accountability ✍🏽, and support. 👫🏿 We know first-hand that fad-diets 🥕, deprivation 🙅, and over-exercising 🤾‍♀️don’t work in the long-term. We also know that what works for me, might not necessarily work for you. Please apply today to get started.

"certified" health coaches are mentioned a few times. What does that mean, certified by who? Are these nutritionists, dietitians, physical trainers…? Is there any content that helps me build trust with Lever so I can believe the guidance I would get as a customer? I would hate to sign up and wind up getting dubious health advice like following new fads like ketogenic diets or fasting.

@_taurean Hi Taurean - The short answer is that certified health coaches graduate from a number of certified health coaching programs and the curriculum is focused on behavior change. Long Answer https://medium.com/qualitativehe...

@_taurean @pubkevin > Dietitians help clients with weight management, meal planning, portion control, reading labels, reviewing dietary supplements, and debunking nutrition myths. It doesn't seem like this is something that a Health Coach can effectively offer. It also seems like Health Coaches _can_ be certified but there isn't anything that explicitly requires them to be certified. Is that right? If so, Who specifically is certifying the health coaches used by Lever and what are they specifically certified to be capable of?

@_taurean @pubkevin here is a list of the certification programs that we hire from https://nbhwc.org/find-an-approv... Some programs are led by medical schools like Duke and Cleveland clinic. Just like personal trainers there is not a legal requirement for certification state by state for health coaches, but this is something that is being tested for weight loss in a clinical setting by the VA. Companies like Omada and Livongo use certified Heath coaches for weight loss. Health coaches do not plan meals for members or tell them which Marcos to eat. Health coaches help with behavioral changes - driven by the members who desire to adhere to the changes they are looking to make. Health coaches are great at helping with support and accountability. MDs and Dietitians are great at telling you what you should do, certified health coaches help you figure out how to actually meet your goals. If it was easy to simply get told what to do and follow it then we wouldn’t need the support and adherence health coaches help provide.

Huge fan of Lever Health - what I love most is the accountability of having a coach who's also plugged directly into your individual health metrics. I really think this type of coaching is the future. Keep up the great work @pubkevin !
