General Information About the Ideal Protein Diet
Our Ideal Protein Diet was designed specifically for rapid weight loss while sparing muscle mass. Our unique protocol was developed in France 25 years ago by Dr. Tran Tien Chanh, MD PhD who made his primary focus on nutricianal research and the treatment of obesity.
In a nutshell, the Ideal Protein Weight Loss system is designed in 4 easy steps. It’s primary focus helps stabilize the pancreas and blood sugar levels while burning fat, maintaining muscle and other lean tissue. Excellent for cellulite reduction and is currently being used in over 2500 Professional Establishments in the US within the last 8 years with great success.
How Does It Work
According to Dr. Tran Tien, “The cause of most weight issues in a modern society is insulin dysfunction. A diet grossly disproportionate in its share of saturated fats and sugars, such as in breads, cereals, muffins, cakes, pastries, pasta, pizza, rice, corn – very much like the North American diet – causes the pancreas to produce an overabundance of insulin, which stays in the system and puts the blood sugar level in a negative balance.”
In over abundance of insulin in your body leads to constant sugar cravings and weight gain. It’s pretty ironic how insulin levels work within the body; the end result being that insulin causes weight gain!
The way it works is….. Insulin’s function in the body is to regulate your blood sugar levels. Note that insulin is also the hormone that helps to transport fat into the cells. Additionally, to make matter worse, insulin also LOCKS the fat in the fat cell and does not allow it to be used as a source of energy. So what happens now? Because the blood sugar has dropped (remember your body now can’t access the fat as a fuel source now) it will create sugar cravings. Now the vicious cycle continues.
So what does the Ideal Protein Diet do for your sugar levels? The Ideal Protein Diet will allow the bodies ability to digest sugars properly by regulating insulin level in your body by giving the pancreas a break ad by limiting simple and complex carbs until you reach your weight goal.
Your Body Can Now lives off its Own Fat Reserves
Lets understand how the body will burn its own fat reserves. The body gets its energy from 3 sources:
- Glycogen, which are carbohydrates
- Protein
- Fats
The body first goes to your simple and complex carbohydrate reserves, then the protein and then finally the fats. If you limit the carbohydrates, you are putting into your body it has less to go through; therefore it quickly goes to the protein you’ve just put in your body for energy, then to the fats.
A person who is not losing weight, typically has approximately 1-2% of their bodies reserves from carbs, approximately 19% from their muscle mass and then finally 79% of their body reserves from fat.
About Simple & Complex Carbohydrates
The body is known to store about 3 days of Carbohydrates in the body; therefore the Ideal Protein Diet is designed to combat this by not allowing sugars (simple and complex) into your diet until you have reached your desired weight. As long as sugars are being consumed, YOU ARE NOT BURING FAT!
The Ideal Protein Diet is specifically designed to burn its fat reserves and not its muscle mass reserves even though they are being depleted simultaneously. The Ideal Protein Diet provides te body with foods with high protein value, complete with 8 essential amino acids, 97% absorbable, which make them biologically-complete proteins.
Additionally, we supply you with supplements which are key ingredients in muscle building and electrolytes to replace those normally found in foods currently being restricted while you are on the Ideal Protein Diet.
People who are on the Ideal Protein Diet are amazed how they feel energized, they look vibrant and feel strong! Why? It’s because your body now has the ability to heal itself and in turn it provides you with strength and you look radiant.
Our Ideal Protein protocol also can be modified for Type 1 diabetics, adolescents and children.
