Nutrisystem, headquartered in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, is a commercial provider of weight loss products and services. Initially, the company offered weight loss counseling and products in brick and mortar centers. In 1999, the company moved to a direct-to-consumer business model, selling its products and programs on the Internet and through a call center via 1-800 numbers. [citation needed]

As of 2014 evidence was lacking that Nutrisystem products help with long-term weight loss; there was tentative evidence that at three months it resulted in 3.8% more weight loss than a control group.[1] Reviews of the Nutrisystem program criticize the company’s approach as not conducive to long-term weight control and expensive.[2]

In 2010, the company's mobile platform was launched amidst allegations that Nutrisystem had stolen the technology from WebDiet, Inc., a Silicon Valley startup.[3][4] In 2012 Dawn Zier joined Nutrisystem as CEO.[5] In 2015 they acquired the South Beach Diet brand.[6]

Nutrisystem will help you transform your life inside and out with a personal weight management experience that's simple to follow, effective and uniquely yours.
