Medication alone

With Ideal Protein

MUSCLE

Medication alone

Risk of muscle loss

In clinical trials, 25–40% of weight lost on GLP-1 medications was lean mass, and up to 40–60% in some studies.²

With Ideal Protein

Lean mass preserved

On the Protocol, men kept 98% and women 95% of their lean mass over 16 weeks.¹

NUTRIENTS

Medication alone

Nutrient gaps

Eating less often means falling short on protein, vitamins and minerals.

With Ideal Protein

Full micronutrient support

Targeted supplements plus diverse vegetables provide full micronutrient and fibre support.

APPETITE

Medication alone

Medication-driven appetite

Hunger and fullness cues are reduced by the medication rather than by eating habits.

It provided me with food that I needed for my body… The coaching really helps because it keeps you accountable to somebody.

Grant

I felt great on my GLP-1 medication, but I didn’t know how to eat right. Ideal Protein gave me the structure I needed and took care of my nutritional needs.
