Proprietary Weight-loss Protocol
Our proprietary Protocol is medically-designed and consistent with scientific and evidence-based guidelines. Patient outcomes are proven to be measurable, predictable, repeatable and sustainable. The Weight Loss Phase was designed to maximize fat loss through nutritional ketosis, a safe and natural metabolic state in which the body’s primary fuel source is coming from ketone bodies – energy molecules produced by “burning fat”. Throughout this Phase, lean body mass (muscle) is preserved through the intake of our protein-based partial meal replacements, which contain protein of high biological value.
One-On-One Coaching
Studies show that to lose and sustain weight loss successfully, there is nothing more important than being assisted by a qualified coach.¹¹ All Coaches are provided ongoing training from Ideal Protein. Through behavior modification and education, our coaches help empower patients with strategies that are critical for long-term healthy weight maintenance. ¹¹ Sforzo GA, Kaye MP, Todorova I, et al.

Foods and Supplements
The Ideal Protein Protocol combines whole foods with medically designed partial meal replacements. Lean body mass is preserved through an adequate daily intake of high biological protein. Essential nutrients are provided through daily supplements, water, and low-glycemic vegetables. Our products are FDA label approved and meet the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) standards for all macro food groups and micro nutritional needs.
Stabilization and Maintenance Plans
Ideal Protein is a structured three-phase Protocol designed for long-term weight maintenance. The Weight Loss phase is designed to optimize fat loss through nutritional ketosis. Following weight loss, the body’s biological response seeks to regain lost energy stores. Our Protocol attenuates this response through the Stabilization phase by adjusting macronutrient intake in the right proportions to effectively manage hunger, promote greater satiety, and maintain weight loss. During the 12-month Maintenance phase, patients continue to receive ongoing education, support, and strategies from their coach and clinic to maintain their weight loss and daily navigate an extensive food landscape.
