People are tired of feeling helpless when it comes to controlling their own health. No one enjoys going through life unable to participate in the activities they truly care about. We call this living disabled without the official recognition of being disabled. People want concrete answers and real guidance on how they can have a true impact on improving their health and quality of life. Protein Pantry’s mission is to empower the individual to take control of their own health in order to live a high quality of life. We achieve our mission through the basic values of our system: True science, educating our clients properly and simplicity of our system.

Protein Pantry is a system based upon the most current research in weight loss and health from preeminent sources such as: Dr. David Perlmutter, Dr. Michael Eads, Dr. David Ludwig and Dr. Dominic D’Agostino.  There are no gimmicks or pharmaceuticals involved with this system. We simply follow and work with biochemistry and physiology.

Protein Pantry is a turnkey, ketogenic weight loss system focusing on the resolution of Metabolic Dysfunction. Metabolic Dysfunction is the biggest health epidemic plaguing the U.S. population and is the cause of most disease we commonly see today.  This system has been designed turnkey in order for true simplicity to be achieved for the individual following the Protein Pantry system. Protein Pantry provides delicious meal replacements that take little to no time in preparation. There is no guess work or counting macros on the individual’s part either. This system takes no time out of the individual’s day to follow. This is a guided, step by step system with great support given by our Protein Pantry doctors and coaches.

Protein Pantry is a ketogenic system because we restrict carbohydrates to a certain level and at the same time promote the consumption of certain fats. It’s this combination of carbohydrate restriction and consumption of certain fats that allows the body to burn and metabolize fat efficiently. This combination also curbs hunger and cravings enabling the individual to feel very satisfied while losing fat. It’s this feeling of satisfaction that’s key to the individual’s success in losing the unwanted fat.

The Protein Pantry system is designed not only for success in losing unwanted fat but more importantly for sustainability. Yes, we want individuals to sustain the success they experienced in our weight loss phase long term. We accomplish this sustainability because of the chemistry change the individual experiences while following this system. While following the Protein Pantry system, the individual’s body will automatically stop craving the foods that cause ill health and will start craving the foods that allow for sustainable, good health. This is why we like to say, “No willpower necessary”. Success has nothing to do with willpower and everything to do with body chemistry. If the individual has the right nutrition then they will have the right chemistry. This is the key to sustainability and the root focus of the Protein Pantry system.

Research shows gut dysbiosis, fatty liver congestion, mitochondrial dysfunction and hyperinsulinemia are the biggest factors in play when dealing with metabolic dysfunction. We have to focus on normalizing gut health, support reduction of fatty liver congestion, support mitochondrial biogenesis and resting insulin output. We need the body to digest and utilize fat efficiently for energy in order to burn fat consistently. This cannot happen if the liver is sluggish, the mitochondria is dysfunctional and the gut and digestive tract are out of balance. In order to have consistent weight loss every week while on the system we have to keep the body in a 24 hr fat burning stage and this cannot happen without healthy mitochondria, a healthy liver, gut and digestive tract.

The body employs energy from three sources; glycogen, protein and fats. We need to keep the carbohydrate intake to a minimum so there is not enough glycogen available to burn for energy. While on the Protein Pantry system we have you eat our high biological value protein foods and consume the correct fatty acids which in combination spare muscle from being catabolized and curbs hunger. The body will try to catabolize muscle and use it for energy if protein and certain types of fat are not readily available for use of energy. Now that we have made fat the main source of energy readily available for use, the body will remain in a 24 hr fat burning stage.

Having insulin at rest, we are giving the body’s cells a break from insulin. The body will come out of the hyperinsulinemic state, insulin levels will be stabilized and the metabolic dysfunction conditions will begin to normalize. Now the body will be able to come out of its chronic inflammatory state and become alkaline which will create an environment that is conducive for cells to replicate healthy, insulin sensitive cells.

Cellular health is dependent upon the powerhouses of the cells, the mitochondria. The mitochondria is responsible for converting nutrients to energy and supplying that energy to cells. You cannot have a working metabolism without the mitochondria. We have our dieters consume certain fats while on our system. The reason we do this is because research shows that particular fats stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis. This basically means that the fats we have our dieters consume stimulates metabolism by supporting the health of cells and their efficiency in burning and utilizing nutrients for energy.

While on the Protein Pantry system, the dieter will consume our high biological value protein foods that are easily digested and utilized for cellular support. Our food is low in carbohydrates and has the optimal amount of protein per serving for proper cellular support. Our food is very convenient for the dieter, taking very little to no time at all in preparing. Our system also includes our very convenient Complete Nutrition Multivitamin. This supplement is comprised of a whole food component, multiple types of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories, milk thistle and dandelion root for liver detox and liver support, a trace mineral component and all the important recommended daily vitamin support. This provides optimal support for healthy cellular replication and repair. We also have our dieters eat a certain amount of vegetables daily, for even more continual cellular support. With the combination of our protein foods, supplements, the consumption of our specific recommended fats & vegetables and the body employing fat for energy, the individuals on our system feel great and are loaded with energy.
