IDEAL Protein

Principles Behind the Ideal Protein Weight Loss Method

The body has three sources of energy from which it draws to meet its metabolic needs: Carbohydrates, Muscle, and Fat. Chronologically, the body will first draw on its carbohydrate reserve before turning to muscle and fat. During the weight loss phases of the protocol we limit the carbohydrate intake to encourage the body to turn its fat and muscle components for energy.

By eating high biological protein foods, the protocol helps to support muscle mass and teaches dieters how to develop smarter eating habits and lifestyle choices so they can maintain a stable weight after weight loss is achieved.

The Ideal Protein Weight Loss Method is not a high-protein diet… It simply offers a variety of good, quality, protein-based foods that are easily assimilated.
