How will Ideal Protien help me lose weight?

Ideal Protein works by training the body to burn fat reserves. This is achieved through eliminating simple and complex carbohydrates from the diet during the weight loss phase.

Carbohydrates

Simple and complex carbohydrates can prevent weight loss. The body stores approximately three days’ worth of carbohydrates for fuel. Therefore, the Ideal Protein protocol restricts sugars and starches (simple and complex carbs) until you have achieved your weight loss goal.

Supplements

To maintain nutritional balance throughout the program, the Ideal Protein protocol is accompanied by supplements that contain key ingredients for optimal health, including omega-3 fatty acids, electrolytes, calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

Eliminating Sugar

Eliminating sugar and starches from your diet ensures that your body more favorably burns fat and you lose weight. The core principle of the Ideal Protein Protocol is to deplete glycogen (carbohydrate) reserves completely and promote fat loss.

With Ideal Protein, you should expect to:

  • Lose weight while sustaining lean muscle mas
  • Learn how food is utilized by the body and how your food choices affect fat storage
