MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMS

HOW CAN WE HELP?

Our comprehensive approach uses the most effective tools in metabolic medicine: leveraging the synergy of our modernized HCG Protocol, customized low-dose GLP-1 Agonist Therapy, and the strategic application of targeted Peptides to achieve safe, effective, and sustainable results.

The innovative weight-loss programs at The Natural Path catalyze metabolic transformation, offering clinically validated protocols that ensure safety and efficacy while proactively supporting a robust, healthy metabolism. With over two decades of immersive experience in metabolic medicine, Dr. Cara and Dr. Madda have cultivated their expertise by collaborating with leading global experts in the field. This foundation of decades-long research, continuous learning, and extensive clinical practice has resulted in the development of state-of-the-art weight-loss programs renowned not only for achieving initial success but also for ensuring durable, sustained weight maintenance.

Expert-Guided HCG Therapy: Maximizing Safe and Effective Weight Loss

We offer a state-of-the-art, physician-supervised version of the HCG Diet, built upon a foundation of nearly seven decades of clinical backing. This protocol has been meticulously refined over 20 years of intensive clinical practice and internal research, enabling us to optimize Dr. Simeons’ original approach to meet the demands of modern life. Our program’s evolution ensures that most individuals can achieve safe and significant fat reduction. Recognizing that weight loss can be challenging and complex, our comprehensive approach goes beyond the diet, working individually with each patient to diagnose and treat any deeper metabolic or physiological factors contributing to weight gain.

In our medical practice, we have consistently achieved positive outcomes for nearly all patients enrolled in our state-of-the-art, medically supervised weight-loss programs. Weight loss maintenance is what we consider a true success!

Expert-Guided modernized HCG Diet protocols and Comprehensive Metabolic Solutions

The cornerstone of success with our modernized HCG Diet protocol lies in the precise integration of our proprietary dietary plan, daily subcutaneous administration of pharmaceutical-grade Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), and key metabolic and lifestyle adjustments.

Decades of Protocol Evolution and Expertise

At The Natural Path, our commitment to patient success is absolute. We have transformed the original HCG Diet protocol through 20+ years of rigorous clinical experience, evolving it into a modernized, streamlined version that is both easier to adhere to and delivers remarkable, sustainable results.

Unwavering Support and Education

We provide a robust support system, ensuring patients have direct access to our doctors for questions or concerns between scheduled office visits. Our commitment extends to continual patient education, where we translate the latest scientific studies on weight loss, fat metabolism, and hormonal regulation into actionable insights. We are dedicated to helping our patients not only achieve significant weight reduction but also maintain that loss and achieve optimal wellness.

Advanced Peptide and Metabolic Programs

Beyond our evolved HCG Diet protocol, we offer advanced weight-loss programs featuring targeted therapeutic peptides and cutting-edge formulations. We also use compounded customized dosing of GLP-1 agonists with a specific lifestyle diet.  These programs are powerful metabolic tools that support sustainable weight loss and help patients transition to a durable, health-focused lifestyle.

Hormonal Contributions to Weight Gain

Dr. Phillipo is an exceptional resource, dedicating significant time to staying current on the latest research concerning the hormonal contributions to weight gain and metabolic dysfunction. Her deep, current knowledge ensures every patient receives guidance that addresses the underlying physiological complexity of weight management.

After many years of research, Dr. Madda and Dr. Phillipo have developed an HCG Diet & weight loss plan that is safe, effective, medically researched and fulfills their commitment to higher health.

Over the past decade, the Natural Path HCG Diet program has been a huge success in helping thousands of patients lose weight and more importantly, make lasting changes in their diets and therefore in their health.  It has been an incredibly rewarding program to facilitate!  We love what the HCG Diet can do for people who need to lose weight and learn how to maintain an optimal body composition.

History of the HCG Diet

In the 1950’s and 1960’s, Dr. Simeons made a ground breaking discovery with weight loss! He discovered that when patients were given the hormone HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin), along with a specific low calorie diet, the result was increased weight loss that came from fat stores and protected lean body mass. In Rome, Dr. Simeons treated thousands of patients with his protocol. These patients felt very satisfied and did not experience hunger on the program. In the last ten years, the HCG Diet has become a sought after weight loss plan due to its level of safety and effectiveness.

Our Clinical Success Record

At The Natural Path, we have a strong success rate in helping our patients lose weight and keep it off! We have done this program with well over a thousand patients with exceptional results. Our HCG weight loss diet is a complete medical weight loss program that can produce maintainable results when followed properly.

What Makes our HCG Diet Program Different …

HCG Diet Clinic PortlandMedical Supervision
We begin by treating each patient as an individual. Each program begins with a 1-1.5-hour comprehensive office visit to review your medical and weight-loss history and, as needed, order laboratory tests to assess metabolic factors that may be interfering with weight loss. We will also review the HCG diet protocol in detail and obtain baseline body composition measurements using our state-of-the-art body composition analyzer. This will help us determine your healthy, optimal weight.

Each week on the program, you will meet with one of our physicians to review progress and make program adjustments as needed. Our doctors are also available to you by phone, text, or email if you need support between office visits. Your success in the program is one of our greatest priorities!

Healthy weight loss

Most patients will lose an average of 0.5-1 lb per day during the program. Depending on the amount of weight to be lost, the HCG phase of the program can last 3-6 weeks. In general, patients can lose anywhere from 10-35 lbs. per cycle of the program. Patients can complete the necessary number of cycles needed to achieve their optimal weight.

Weight Loss from Fat Stores and not Muscle

This is what makes the HCG Diet program unique. In body composition analysis before and after the program, we observe that most of the weight loss is from fat mass rather than lean body mass. This is very important for proper metabolism. Although you may be consuming a lower-carb, lower-fat diet, you are using your fat stores for fuel. Therefore, hunger stays at bay and metabolism stays strong.

Weight Loss Maintained

The Natural Path offers a very comprehensive Stabilization phase (phase 3) of the HCG Diet program. Our doctors have created a comprehensive phase 3 protocol that helps your body to create a new “set point” for your weight after completion of phase 2 (HCG phase). Throughout the program, you will also LEARN what foods tend to trigger fat storage, ways to eat for enjoyment and health, as well as “correction days” that are used if weight goes up past your optimal range.

Improvements in Overall Health

Excess weight is a risk factor for many chronic diseases. By losing weight, we have helped patients discontinue many medications and health conditions, as indicated.

Clinical Experience

At The Natural Path, Dr. Phillipo and Dr. Madda have spent the last 20+ years conducting extensive research on the HCG Diet and cutting-edge modern science related to weight loss. They have also successfully treated thousands of patients with their unique HCG Diet protocol.
