About Perdura

Perdura is a UK health coaching service for people coming off GLP-1 medication. It exists to solve one specific problem: what happens after the medication stops.

What Perdura is

Perdura runs a structured twelve-week programme for people who are taking, tapering, or have recently stopped GLP-1 medication — Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic or Saxenda.

The programme works across four areas: appetite and nutrition, movement, sleep and stress, and behaviour and accountability. Progress is tracked using validated tools rather than the scale alone, including the Food Noise Questionnaire, which measures the intrusive food-related thinking that most programmes never assess.

It is a coaching service — not a medical service. It does not prescribe or supply medication, and does not replace the care of your GP or prescriber.

What the name means

Perdura comes from the Latin perdurare — to last, to endure, to hold out. It's the same root that gives Spanish perdurar and English durable.

The name was chosen deliberately. Losing weight on medication is, for many people, the part that finally worked. The harder question is whether it lasts. That's the problem this was built for.

Why it exists

The idea came from a pattern that kept repeating. People did well on medication — often better than on anything they'd tried before — and then came off it with no plan, no structure and no support. Appetite returned, weight followed, and almost everyone interpreted that as personal failure rather than as a predictable consequence of an unmanaged transition.

This is the programme that should have existed at that point.

The premise is that regain after medication is not a discipline problem. The eating patterns that hold while appetite is suppressed were never tested against real hunger — they didn't need to be. When the medication is withdrawn, those patterns have to carry weight they were never built for. That is a structural problem, and structural problems can be solved.

Who runs it

Jaz Sandhu, Health and Wellbeing Coach

Perdura was founded by Jaz Sandhu, a Health and Wellbeing Coach working in the NHS, supporting people living with obesity, type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

That NHS work is where the pattern above became obvious — seen repeatedly, across many people, rather than inferred from research alone. Every coaching session on the programme is delivered by Jaz personally; there is no team of associates and no handing off.

Who the programme is for

It's designed for adults in the UK who are on a GLP-1, tapering off one, or have already stopped. It works at any of those stages, though the earlier someone starts, the more of the transition can be prepared for rather than reacted to.

It's built around people with demanding jobs rather than people with spare hours — one coaching session a week, plus daily practices worked out together.

It isn't right for everyone, and part of the point of a discovery call is to work that out honestly. Where the programme doesn't look like the right fit, we'll say so.

How it's evidenced

Progress is measured on more than weight. The Food Noise Questionnaire — a validated self-report instrument for intrusive food-related thought — is used at baseline, mid-programme and exit, alongside sleep, movement and confidence measures.

Weight is one signal. Appetite, confidence and consistency say considerably more about whether a change will hold.

Where Perdura works

Perdura works with adults aged 18 and over across the United Kingdom. Coaching is delivered remotely, so location within the UK isn't a constraint.

What Perdura is not

Worth stating plainly, because the name is shared with several unrelated businesses. This Perdura — perdura.health — is a UK health coaching service. It is not connected to any skincare, construction materials, decorative stone or paint applicator company trading under a similar name.

It is also not a medical service, not a prescriber, not a supplier of medication, and not a diet or meal-replacement product.
