What is Ideal Protein?
Ideal Protein is a 3-phase medically designed and professionally supervised weight management protocol. It is designed to treat the root cause of obesity and obesity related diseases (Metabolic Syndrome/Syndrome X) without compromising lean body mass (muscle) or decreasing vitality. Women lose on average 2-5 pounds per week and men 3-7 pounds per week.
How much does the program cost?
For those that are brand new to the program, there is a one-time start-up fee of $150. This includes the initial appointment and review of your health history, all of your weekly appointment throughout your weight loss and weight maintenance journey, and body composition analysis (InBody 570). Most facilities that have the InBody scanner charge per scan – sometimes upwards of $50 – $100/scan. We charge $0 for current clients! After this one-time fee, you are just paying for the cost of the Ideal Protein foods which act as partial meal replacements to help preserve your lean mass while losing body fat. These run about $90/week. In addition, there is a series of vitamins and minerals that you will take to meet the micronutrient requirements of the body. These run about $100/month. Total monthly cost is around $450, depending. Most people find that they don’t spend more than they already were.
Is it safe?
Absolutely! Phase 1, the weight loss phase, meets the macronutrient and micronutrient requirements of the body. However, we do require completion of a health profile which will be reviewed by our medical director who will ensure it is safe for you to participate.

诊所简介
Ideal Health in Anchorage, AK offers Ideal Protein weight loss protocol for metabolic syndrome with weekly coaching via in-person and telehealth visits.
Ideal Health in Anchorage, Alaska operates as a certified weight management and metabolic health clinic specializing in the Ideal Protein protocol, a structured ketogenic approach designed to address insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. The clinic serves patients throughout Alaska through both in-person consultations at their Anchorage location and telehealth appointments for residents across the state. As members of the American Association of Drugless Practitioners, the providers at Ideal Health focus on drugless interventions that target the underlying metabolic dysfunctions contributing to weight gain, pre-diabetes, and related conditions.
The Ideal Protein protocol at Ideal Health consists of a four-phase program that begins with a ketogenic phase using specifically formulated meal replacements designed to preserve lean muscle mass while promoting fat loss. Patients receive individualized macronutrient targets based on their body composition analysis and metabolic assessment. The clinic provides weekly check-ins during the active weight loss phases, where coaches review food logs, measure body composition changes using bioelectrical impedance analysis, and adjust the protocol based on individual progress. Phase two introduces selective reintegration of whole foods while maintaining ketosis, phase three focuses on stabilizing blood sugar through balanced macronutrient ratios, and phase four establishes long-term maintenance strategies. The clinic also addresses metabolic syndrome components including elevated triglycerides, low HDL cholesterol, hypertension, and insulin resistance through this structured nutritional approach.
The coaching team at Ideal Health includes certified Ideal Protein coaches trained in the protocol’s specific requirements and metabolic principles. Coaches conduct initial assessments that include health history review, current medication evaluation, and goal-setting sessions to determine appropriate starting phases. The clinic’s approach emphasizes education about insulin’s role in fat storage, the metabolic advantages of nutritional ketosis, and strategies for identifying hidden sugars and refined carbohydrates in the standard American diet. Patients learn to read nutrition labels, understand glycemic impact, and make informed food choices that support stable blood sugar levels beyond the active protocol phases.
Patients at Ideal Health typically begin with an in-person or telehealth consultation to review medical history, current health status, and weight loss goals. The initial visit includes body composition analysis, protocol education, and selection of Ideal Protein foods based on individual preferences and any dietary restrictions. Weekly check-ins last approximately 15-20 minutes and focus on troubleshooting challenges, reviewing compliance, celebrating non-scale victories such as improved energy or reduced medication needs, and providing accountability. The clinic supplies Ideal Protein products directly, eliminating the need for patients to source meal replacements independently. For telehealth patients throughout Alaska, the clinic ships products and conducts virtual check-ins, making the program accessible to residents in remote areas where specialized weight management services may be limited.
Ideal Health differentiates itself through its exclusive focus on the Ideal Protein methodology rather than offering multiple competing weight loss programs, allowing the team to develop deep expertise in this specific protocol. The clinic maintains a structured schedule of check-in appointments to ensure consistent accountability, which patients identify as a critical factor in their success. The Anchorage location provides a dedicated space for private consultations and body composition measurements, while the telehealth option extends access across Alaska’s vast geography. The clinic’s drugless practitioner certification aligns with their philosophy of addressing weight and metabolic issues through nutritional intervention rather than pharmaceutical management, though they work collaboratively with patients’ primary care physicians when medication adjustments become necessary due to improved metabolic markers.
