Jennifer B

2023 Cohort

I've had tremendous results.

“I wouldn’t have been able to do it if it hadn’t been a virtual program from the comfort of my home. The first thing I noticed was that my blood pressure stabilized. For years I had a lot of pressure in my chest (angina), and yet ever since 3 or 4 weeks of starting the program, it has been completely alleviated; that was a huge thing!”

Allen S

The results were beyond my wildest imagination.

“I’ve seen a reduction in my A1c, so I’m no longer diabetic. I’ve also seen a reduction in my blood pressure and asthma, and I eliminated my acid reflux and COPD. I even lost close to 30 pounds!”

Jim C

2023 Cohort

You get a whole new perspective on life once you’re given a second chance like I have.

“I’ve lost over 30 pounds; I feel great! I don’t have angina or the constant fear of having a cardiac event anymore. My whole life has changed for the better and I’m going to keep it that way.”
