Medical weight loss

GLP-1 receptor agonists, including Tirzepatide and Semaglutide, represent an innovative approach to weight management by replicating the body’s natural hormones to regulate appetite, delay gastric emptying, and improve metabolic function. These medications stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin, helping to stabilize blood glucose levels, reduce cravings, and support adherence to a balanced nutritional plan. When combined with appropriate dietary habits and regular physical activity, most patients tolerate these therapies well, with minimal side effects, making them an effective option for sustainable weight management.

At Altruistic Health, we collaborate with compounding pharmacies to offer high-quality GLP-1 style compounded peptide therapies tailored to individual needs.

To optimize treatment outcomes, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential. Incorporating strength training can help preserve lean muscle mass during weight loss, while a diet rich in lean proteins, healthy fats, and fiber from fruits and vegetables supports energy levels and metabolic health. Additionally, we provide a weekly B12 vitamin supplement to further enhance energy and fat metabolism. With comprehensive medical support, personalized guidance, and healthy lifestyle practices, this peptide therapy can play a significant role in achieving long-term weight management goals.

For a convenient weekly boost, Lipo-B12 injections provide a natural way to support metabolism, increase energy, and promote liver health. These quick injections combine essential lipotropic amino acids—Choline, Methionine, and Inositol—that assist in fat metabolism, aid detoxification, and help reduce stress and fatigue. Unlike standard B12 shots, Lipo-B12 offers additional benefits to support overall wellness.

FDA-approved appetite suppressants can help patients lose 5–10% of their body weight on their own. When combined with expert nutritional guidance, calorie control, and a low-carb diet, patients may achieve and maintain up to 30% weight loss within 12–18 months.

Our modern HCG protocol—based on Dr. Emma’s updated approach—supports safe, sustainable weight loss with increased daily calories, nutrient-rich meals, and high-purity HCG injections. Unlike outdated plans, we use only pharmaceutical-grade HCG to help preserve muscle while burning fat, allowing most clients to lose ½–1 lbs per day. The program is effective for both men and women, with added benefits for men including improved energy, metabolism, and testosterone levels. With expert support and realistic meal planning, long-term weight maintenance is achievable—and enjoyable.

Our Plans are rooted in lifestyle and functional medicine principles — while all of the lifestyle factors are important for overall health, you can’t out work a poor diet.

Using food as medicine is a key principle that we continue to emphasize with our clients. In addition, these food plans are recommended by the Robinsons when they have patients who are looking for diet guidance to relieve discomfort or distressing symptoms and to use food-as-medicine to promote overall health. 

These food plans are designed by the Institute for Functional Medicine and are tools to help you along your health journey- a journey that often starts in the kitchen.
