Who's behind JellyPal & how we write about GLP-1s
JellyPal is built and written by a real, named human. Here's who runs it, how the blog is researched, and the standards we hold ourselves to for health content.
Meet Cody McLain
Founder, JellyPal
Cody McLain is the founder of JellyPal, the GLP-1 medication tracker he built to help people on Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound stay on top of their treatment. He writes and curates the JellyPal blog, where content is informational and grounded in cited peer-reviewed research and FDA labeling. Cody is not a medical professional, and these posts are not medical advice.

Editorial & sourcing standards
Our goal is to make GLP-1 medication information clear and trustworthy. Every post on the JellyPal blog follows the same standards:
- Claims are sourced. Medical and statistical claims are drawn from peer-reviewed studies, clinical guidelines, and official FDA prescribing information, which we cite within or at the end of each article.
- AI-assisted, human-reviewed. We use AI tools to help draft and structure articles, but every post is reviewed and edited by a human before publishing. We don't publish unverified AI-generated medical claims.
- Kept current. Posts show a publish or last-updated date, and we revise content as new research and labeling become available.
- Honest framing. We explain what the evidence does and doesn't say, and we distinguish established science from anecdote and social-media trends.
Medical disclaimer
The JellyPal blog is for informational and educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Cody McLain is the founder of JellyPal, not a physician, pharmacist, or other licensed clinician, and nothing on this site should be treated as a substitute for professional medical guidance. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting, stopping, or changing any medication or treatment, and seek immediate care for any medical emergency.
Clinical review is coming
We're committed to raising the bar on accuracy. We're in the process of adding clinical review of our health content by qualified medical professionals. Until that's in place, we're transparent that our posts are written and curated by JellyPal's founder and grounded in cited research rather than reviewed by a physician.
