The intention was to address the needs of individuals using GLP-1 medications for weight management. This thoughtful dietary offering focused on high protein content, significant dietary fiber, and the absence of added sugars. This year, Smoothie King partnered with [Costco and Sam’s Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wellness-smoothie-multipack) to offer complimentary items from its GLP-1 Support Menu to members of the popular grocery stores. The promotion ran from October 28th through Friday, October 31st. Card-carrying members of Costco and [Sam's Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/egglife-foods) could present their card and receive "two fan favorites from Smoothie King’s GLP-1 Support Menu — the Slim ’N Trim GLP-1 Mango Greens and the Power Meal Slim™ GLP-1."
