My bad cholesterol dropped and my good cholesterol went up after losing the weight. I hope to be off my satin for my cholesterol shortly. I especially liked working with Dr. Huang as she explained how all of my food choices affected my health. I’m much healthier than I was a year ago and I have better understating of what I need to do to continue to maintain good health. I would definitely recommend this diet to anyone serious about losing weight. Thank you to Dr. Huang and her staff for their help and encouragement!!

How the Method Works
The body has three sources of energy:
Carbohydrates are always burned first, followed by
Protein and
Fat
Once the body has depleted its carbohydrate reserves, it will simultaneously draw on its protein and fat reserves for energy.
The intake of our high-biological value protein meals while following our protocol will help maintain lean muscle mass and force the body to turn to its fat reserve for energy. We also offer our Alternate Protocol which is optimized for diabetics.
The diet allows for regular weight loss, and that is reinforced by the accountability factor of weekly check-in and daily videos. Dr. Huang and Jim has been helpful with food tips and encouragement. The front staff is very accommodating, efficient and pleasant. While the diet is stringent, it can be followed to some degree even with an unusual travel schedule. Seeing steady results is motivating and further helps one stay on track toward reaching goals. I feel and look better!

Detoxification
With the overwhelming amount of environmental toxins around us, it is inevitable to acquire pollutants in our body. Though it is possible to avoid major sources of toxins like industrial by-products, chemicals and biological hazards, there are others which are carefully disguised. In fact some are found in food, water, and utensils. We help our patients take proactive steps to expel the toxins in their body. That way, illnesses which these pollutants may cause will be avoided.
This is designed for our clients who are professional athletes and those who are into rigorous sports training. It is programmed to help individuals who regularly do intense physical activities so that they can have deeper knowledge about proper diet and nutrition, recovery techniques, lowering fatigue level, handling aging, and a whole lot more. We will give extensive knowledge to the patient by delving into specific aspects such as:
Science-based diet to achieve optimum physical performance
Necessary nutrients which will improve sports abilities
Sports physiology
Correct way to achieve recovery and avoid extreme muscle fatigue
This is a procedure which allows the body to absorb needed nutrients and medication faster. The solution is administered directly to the vein with the use of a fine needle so the cells recover more quickly. We help our patients with chronic fatigue, weak immune system, gastrointestinal ailment, severe migraine, cancer, and others. The IV Nutritional Therapy supplies the necessary vitamins and minerals so that the body would be on its way to full recovery in no time and patients can feel significant improvement quickly.
Since exercising is a must in preventing various ailments like diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, and others, we will provide exact methods to our patients about proper nutrition and exercise to be able to maintain quality of life despite aging. We also customize the program depending on the specific needs and profile of our patient. Resistance and weight training, cardiovascular exercises, and flexibility training will also help in hormone balance which becomes even more important when aging.

The Botox and Juvederm treatments you gave me worked so well- no bruising, and it all looks great. You do it so well. Thank you!
R.C. Female - Botox & Juvederm
I went on this diet because I was tired of wedging myself into my clothes. The convenient food preparation, portion size and the introduction of healthier foods in my diet is what I enjoyed most about Ideal Protein. When started the program, I was on a beta-blocker for high blood pressure and Liptor for my high cholesterol. Now my blood pressure is normal and am off both medications!
M.C., 60, female
Just wanted to let you know what a great job you did today. I can barely detect any signs of the procedure and no bruises, not even a little one. Thank you!
