In order to ensure that you are cardiovascularly prepared for these programs, we ask you to come in for a consultation where we will check your overall health and determine the best course of action to get you to your goal weight.
We recommend weekly checkups, where we check a multitude of different indicators to monitor your results. Everything from your BMI, muscle mass, visceral fat, estimated age, weight & composition of your body, etc. During these check-ups, we can decide to remove or add certain pharmaceuticals or exercises. This may include Lipophilic shots, which burns fat or B12 shots. The difference between these programs and others available in the market is that your progress is consistently monitored by your physician to ensure your body is healthy through the process.

Weight Loss & Diet Programs
Mendez Family Care offers the ITG Diet under the medical supervision of our providers. The ITG diet offers a sustainable weight loss solution and minimizes spikes in insulin production. It is tailored to safely spare muscle mass while simultaneously burning fat. This is possible through a high protein low carbohydrate diet. ITG offers a variety of meal options and high-grade supplements. ITG also shares tips on how to maintain your social life while on your weight loss journey. Participants in this diet come in the office weekly for body measurements and a B12 lipophilic shot. Come meet with one of our providers and see if the ITG diet is appropriate for you.
The typical American diet consists of processed foods—refined sugars and starches such as bread, pasta, potatoes, snacks, and sweets, etc. At Mendez Family Care, we can recommend a healthy diet specifically designed for you. Our simple to follow, 3 step plan allows you to lose weight while targeting the fat your body has stored and uses it as energy. The term is called “Ketosis” and it simply means “using fat for energy.” Our program helps you comfortably consume fewer calories with no drugs, increase your “calorie burning” activities and get you the high-quality protein you need to improve your weight loss results.
ITG Diet Plans
The typical American diet consists of processed foods—refined sugars and starches such as bread, pasta, potatoes, snacks, and sweets, etc. The pancreas must constantly pump out insulin to take care of all the sugar (or glucose) that makes up these foods to regulate your blood sugar levels.
From the minute that carbohydrates are consumed, they are broken down into glucose in the bloodstream and then whatever is not needed immediately for energy is converted into fat and stored. Eating a diet that is full of these processed foods or a high-carbohydrate diet, forces the pancreas to work overtime and eventually can lead to insulin resistance. When a body becomes insulin resistant and produces better health excess insulin, it results in a drastic drop in the blood sugar level (hypoglycemia) and thereby leads to sugar cravings. More sugar is consumed, and the cycle starts over leading to excess fat storage and yes, excess weight.
This is where the ITG plan stops the cycle. Our simple to follow, 3 step plan allows you to lose weight while targeting the fat your body has stored and uses it as energy. The term is called “Ketosis” and it simply means “using fat for energy.” Our program helps you comfortably consume fewer calories with no drugs, increase your “calorie burning” activities and get you the high-quality protein you need to improve your weight loss results.
The ITG Plan will guide you and support you in your quest to lose fat safely by helping you understand the difference between “eating a healthy diet” and “eating for weight loss”. And most importantly, upon reaching the final stage, you will also have learned to eat a balanced diet at each meal and how to maintain your weight loss.
