Ideal Protein of America

ShareCor is proud to announce its partnership with Ideal Protein of America (IP) Weight-Loss Method, a medically designed protocol that results in rapid fat loss while sparing the muscle mass. The program was developed in Europe over two decades ago by an MD, PhD for Olympic athletes who wanted to lose body fat without the loss of muscle. This program was introduced into the United States in January of 2008 and all product labels have been brought through the FDA. The program is only available through health care professionals. Ideal Protein is not a multi-level marketing company.

The IP protocol is muscle sparing and the main purpose is to deal with Metabolic Syndrome, the overproduction of insulin, and insulin resistance in the body. Cardiologists utilizing the IP program report tremendous improvement in lipid profiles, blood pressure, blood sugar levels, all while their patients average 3-7 pounds of weight loss per week.

Many medical groups and hospitals have added the IP program to their wellness program and have seen increases of $500,000 to well over $1,000,000 in CASH revenues in year 1. The Ideal Protein program is a fantastic way for medical professionals to gain access to the over $54 Billion spent annually in the United States on weight loss.
