Ideal Protein is about much more than just losing weight. The Ideal Protein Protocol is about getting your life back and regaining your health and vitality.

How does Ideal Protein work? 
Ideal Protein brings our relationship with food back to its fundamentals. The body has three sources of energy from which it draws to meet its metabolic needs: Carbohydrates 
The body has three sources of energy from which it draws to meet its metabolic needs: 
  • Carbohydrates 
  • Protein
  • Fat 
Chronologically. the body will first draw on its carbohydrate reserve before turning to protein and fat. 

During the weight loss phases of the Protocol. we limit carbohydrate intake to encourage the body to turn to its fat and muscle components for energy. 

By eating protein foods, the Protocol helps to support muscle mass and teaches you how to develop smarter eating habits and lifestyle choices. to help maintain your weight after weight loss is achieved.
