Ideal Protein's internationally pursued health programs naturally aid the body's metabolism, enabling clients to slough off stored fat while maintaining desired muscle mass. Custom diet plans restrict simple and complex sugars to fully deplete carbohydrate reserves—forcing the body to burn calories from its fat storage. Health professional coaches educate patients in an initial one-hour consultation, briefing on the program's methods while explaining the body's uses for food, fat storage, and fat burning. Coaches also determine individual client needs to bestow practical guidance on topics such as planning the diet regimen and outrunning carrot uprisings. Health-seeking proteges can meet their coaches indefinitely for weekly, personalized support sessions, even after karate chopping through the brick wall of their dieting goals.

To complement the nutritional guidance, clients receive a week's worth of Ideal Protein's health-conscious fare delivered in three packages each containing either seven high-protein breakfast, lunch entree, or snack meals. Users formulate custom meal plans from more than 50 gourmet mixes, gaining up to four servings of vegetables and one serving of protein per day. Craft morning rosters of pancakes, crepes, or herb-and-cheese omelettes, entree lineups of leek soup, soy patties, and spaghetti bolognese, or build snack castles from ridged soy chips, chocolate bars, and cheese protein curls. An included shaker container enables users to easily blend their meal mixes, while mineral salt bottles provide additional fare seasoning and essential nutrients.

Participants pair meals with three required vitamin supplements—Cal-Mag, potassium-calcium, and multivitamin—tailored to the program's nutrition regimen. Each blend of ingredients, build muscles and pile up electrolytes to fill in nutritional gaps normally bridged by foods prohibited by the plan. When taken at recommended doses, both Cal-Mag and multivitamin will last up to a month, and potassium-calcium will supply its taker for up to three months. Clients may shed 3–7 pounds in their initial week and experience heightened energy, reduced food cravings, and a more easily-controlled appetite. As clients naturally burn off fat-trapped toxins, they also balance pancreatic functions, blood-sugar levels, and heart vs. lung Red Rover matches.
