InVia Fertility is happy to offer the Ideal Protein diet to help assist our patients in losing weight and living a healthier life. Ideal Protein was developed by Dr Tran Tien, Chanh over 20 years ago to help athletes lose weight while keeping lean muscle mass. The main focus is on weight loss, followed by a smarter eating education to support lifestyle changes. Ideal Protein is a meal replacement plan to begin, with continued coaching and education to help you keep the weight off.
How does it work?
The body employs energy from three reserves: glycogen (carbohydrate), protein and fats. First from its simple and complex carbohydrate reserves and when they’re depleted, your body turns simultaneously to its protein and fat reserves for energy. The core principle of Ideal Protein is to deplete the glycogen (carbohydrate) reserves completely, in order to compel the body into consuming its fat reserve to burn calories. In order to consume the fat reserves as oppose to the protein reserves, Ideal Protein foods are made with high quality protein. The quality of protein used in the diet products has an impact on effective protein absorption. If protein absorption is low, you may not be able to protect your muscle mass and thus you will burn muscle along with fat. If you lose muscle while dieting, you may impair your ability to burn calories post-diet, as your body uses muscle mass to burn calories.
Secondly, dieters use the nutrient-rich supplements, key ingredients in muscle building and electrolytes. These supplements replace those normally found in foods restricted on the Ideal Protein protocol.
InVia Fertility is committed to staying on the cutting edge when it comes to helping you achieve your dreams. Ask one of our doctors or nurses if Ideal Protein is right for you. We also offer Ideal Protein workshops so you can find out for yourself if Ideal Protein is a fit.
