FAQ

  • FAQ

    • What Does Professionally Supported Mean?

      Our protocol itself is professionally supported. Nutritionists, dietitians, and physicians were involved in the creation and modification of the program. You will not be seen by any doctors on this program. Physicians have helped solidify this program and today our health consultants bring this protocol to life.

    • Is it Necessary to See a Doctor While on the Soza Program?

      You should get the approval of your primary doctor before going on any weight loss program. We do not want to take the role of your doctors. It is our belief that you should maintain your existing relationships with all your physicians, without the unnecessary expensive testing and procedures many "medical weight loss programs" put you through. We can send your physician a letter outlining our programs and goals in order for them to continue to care for your medical needs. We are here to support you in your weight loss goals, using the safe methods created by physicians.

    • Is the Soza Program Safe?

      Yes absolutely! Even though you could lose anywhere from ½ pound a pound a day, you are losing fat and not lean muscle mass, eating nutrient dense healthy foods and taking vitamins and supplements to support health. It’s a given that excess weight is a definite health risk. Generally speaking most of our clients report feeling better while on the program. Maintaining regular visits with your physician important, at SOZA we frequently receive reports that there have been over all health improvement as a result of the healthy lifestyle change our clients adopt.

    • Why Is it Hard to Lose Weight on My Own?

      Today we are constantly bombarded with so many different fads and diets from the media and misinformation available on the internet even by health care professionals. Attempting a weight loss program on your own does not address all factors attributed to weight loss. In addition, wrong information leads to lack of weight loss, weight gain or fluctuations which ultimately lead to frustration and eventual failure. We help provide all the metabolic factors and correct information necessary to lose weight, effectively and safely. We are here to provide you with a proprietary proven method of weight loss that has helped treat close to. 5,000 clients in the greater New Orleans and Baton Rouge areas.

    • Why Does this Work Where Other Programs Have Failed?

      There a number of factors that attribute to “diet failure” and at SOZA, our comprehensive approach addresses them all. The number one reason programs fail is blood sugar instability, your sugars drop, you experience agitation, headaches shakiness and before you know it you have eaten the very first thing you see. And it’s usually sugar laden. Our program is designed to stabilize blood sugars to avoid those pitfalls entirely. Hunger and cravings are another reason for failure. Our products and program combined effectually mange both those issues. Then there is always the slow nature if weight loss. Most people become discouraged losing only a pound a week. The rapid nature of our program keeps our clients motivated so they stay the course! We provide support to our clients throughout the program, unlimited access to our staff gives our clients someone to reach out to for advice, guidance and most of all support. These are the reasons why SOZA Works!

    • How Fast Until I See Results?

      This is what makes our program so amazing. The results are quick and in a week you could easily lose up to 7 pounds**. We have seen people lose even more. Your energy levels will increase, stress will decrease, but more importantly you will be very motivated and tell all your friends about this program. Research has shown that slow weight loss reduces the chances of reaching your goal weight, and could keep you at current health risks.

    • Is this Pre-Packaged Foods?

      We do not advocate pre-packaged foods. Most pre-packaged foods are full of preservatives and chemicals. What will you do once you are off these foods? With the Soza protocol you will be eating real foods, low calorie but nutrient dense. We want you to learn what foods to eat today and always. Our food list is a proprietary food list specifically designed for fat loss.

    • Do I Get Support?

      Definitely, our health consultants are highly trained and they see many patients daily. We advise you to come to the clinic weekly for weigh-ins and follow ups. In addition to office visits our staff is always available by phone to provide support and answer any questions you may have. At each visit we will show you how many pound and more importantly how many inches you have lost. We will also work with you one on one to offer guidance, suggestions and solutions to any difficulties you may have.

    • What About Diabetes & High Blood Pressure?

      There are so many clients that come to us with diabetes and high blood pressure medication. For most people diabetes and hypertension are the direct result of diet and weight. At SOZA both of these factors will improve, resulting in reduction of blood sugars, blood pressures and even cholesterol levels. As you lose weight on our program, you will be instructed to monitor your blood sugar and blood pressure levels and communicate the improvement you will see to your physician so the appropriate adjustments to your medication can be made. We have seen many patients in an incredibly short period of time show significant improvements and we see clients every day who are able to significantly reduce or even remove their medication entirely!

    • Does this Program Interfere with my Medication?

      Our program is an all-natural solution that absolutely does not interfere with medication. Everything we do is natural that does not include stimulant diet pills including phentermine like many other weight loss programs out there. However, you should always check with your physician before beginning any weight loss program. When you come in for your consultation we will be happy to give you information you can bring to your physician

    • Is this an Exercise Program?

      It is not an exercise program. Nutrition is by far the most effective method of achieving weight loss. We do however want you to be active and recommend walking or low intensity exercise to keep your metabolism boosted and for maintaining muscle. Weight loss cannot be done with exercise alone. This requires a system or a protocol like Soza!

    • What Happens When I Am Finished with the Protocol? Do I Gain the Weight Back?

      Now that you have lost fat and not lean muscle mass, you will likely not be gaining the weight back. Unlike diet pills and phentermines that cause your appetite to be suppressed and artificially stimulate your metabolism our program targets fat and stimulates your metabolism naturally. Our nutrition plan will help you develop better eating habits and our stabilization phase allows your body a “rest period” so it will reset at your new weight this phase also allows you to return to regular life while having gained the tools to maintain your new weight. This is why SOZA is the most comprehensive program around. Best of all our protocol includes a 21 day stabilization phase that is FREE of charge!

    • Is this Program Expensive?

      Our program is as affordable as most diet programs out there if not more so. We believe that everyone has the right to lose weight and for this reason we have many affordable programs to choose from including finance options for those that need it. The longer you stay on some other common commercial weight loss programs the more expensive they become. Not at SOZA! Returning or continuing clients are offered special incentives to make continuing less expensive!

      *statements are based on theories and assumptions by the Soza Clinic team.

      ** this happens when following our program closely and accurately, as many patients have in the past.

      For example, cortisol increases serum blood glucose and insulin levels, inducing dysglycemia (unhealthy blood sugars) and layering the foundation for metabolic syndrome. Over time, elevated cortisol levels have detrimental repercussions on adrenal glands causing them to "burn out" so that they no longer scan produce sufficient quantities of cortisol for the body to handle stress.
