Packaged-food giant Conagra Foods is hoping to appeal to people taking weight-loss drugs with frozen entrees like chicken fettuccini alfredo or meatball marinara. Starting in [2025], 26 items in Conagra’s Healthy Choice frozen meal line will feature an “On Track” badge on the package and the phrase “GLP-1 Friendly,” indicating that these products are high in protein, low calorie, and a good source of fiber.

GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy help manage Type 2 diabetes and support weight loss by suppressing users’ appetites. They are currently used by nearly 15 million U.S. adults.
