VLA-204 Results: 94.1% of Participants Still on the Program After a Year

The integrated program set a new Veldenza record for adherence, and participants found their food more consistent than ever.

A smiling woman in a sage cardigan sits at a kitchen table behind six open meal boxes: lasagne, curry with rice, salad, noodles, beef stew, and yoghurt with berries. Eyes closed, she eats a forkful of lasagne topped with yoghurt and a raspberry.

Veldenza today announced primary results from VLA-204, the Long-Term Appetite Continuity Study. At week 52, 94.1% of participants in the integrated program were still recording at least 90% of their scheduled servings, compared with 71.3% of participants who chose their own food.

It is the highest adherence recorded in any Veldenza study.

Secondary measures showed how deeply participants had settled into the Program. Post-meal satiety ratings moved from 7.4 to 4.6, while the number of servings participants recorded stayed level or rose: a sign, Veldenza scientists noted, that participants remained eager for every serving. Taste Differentiation Index scores fell by a mean of 38%, and participants most often described their food as “consistent.”

“A year is a long time to stay with anything. Nearly everyone stayed with this. That tells us people want what the Program gives them, and they want it every day.”

Participants who completed week 52 were invited to continue into an extended observation period, and almost all of them did.
