Reverse type 2 diabetes with Virta!
Virta is a medically supervised, research-backed treatment to reverse type 2 diabetes through nutritional ketosis without calorie-counting, surgery, or more medication. Virta’s treatment is done online, and patients are medically supervised as they lower A1c, eliminate diabetes medications, and lose weight.
The Midwest Operating Engineers Welfare Fund fully covers the cost of Virta for eligible active members, eligible retirees, or eligible covered dependents with type 2 diabetes.
Virta uses nutritional ketosis to naturally lower blood sugar and turn the body into a fat-burning machine. There is NO surgery, required exercise, or calorie counting on Virta.
With Virta’s personalized treatment plan, each patient gets medical supervision from a physician-led care team, a one-on-one health coach, diabetes testing supplies, educational tools like videos and recipes, and a private online support community.
Virta provides around-the-clock monitoring and care—there are no waiting rooms and no lines. With an easy-to-use mobile and desktop app, Virta can be done from anywhere.
