What is Ideal Protein?

Ideal Protein is a program that helps you set, achieve, and maintain your weight loss goals. There are three phases in the Ideal Protein program including:

Phase 1

In phase 1, you’ll limit carbohydrate intake and eat more protein. This helps you stay full, encourages your body to use its stored fat for energy, and jump-starts weight loss.

Phase 2 

In phase 2, you’ll eat specially-formulated Ideal Protein foods that help you sustain muscle mass. Simultaneously, you’ll learn smarter eating habits and lifestyle choices.

Phase 3

In phase 3, you’ll learn the best weight maintenance methods. This prevents you from falling back into unhealthy habits and gaining the weight back.

The Ideal Protein weight loss protocol takes a unique approach to weight loss so you can get the results you want and enjoy sustained changes.
