More Than a Number — A Smarter Way to Lose Weight and Improve Health

At the Medical Institute of Healthy Aging, we understand that weight loss isn’t just about willpower — it’s about metabolism, hormones, inflammation, and how your body is aging. Our Medical Weight Loss Program is designed to help you lose weight safely, sustainably, and in a way that improves your long-term health.

Rather than one-size-fits-all diets or short-term fixes, we use advanced diagnostics, personalized protocols, and clinical support to help you rebalance your biology and reach your weight goals for good.

What Makes Medical Weight Loss Different at MIHA?

Our approach is based on identifying and addressing the root causes of weight gain or resistance to fat loss. Many patients have underlying metabolic or hormonal imbalances that make weight loss difficult — even with proper diet and exercise.

A structured approach to jumpstart fat loss.

Meal replacement programs offer a simplified, calorie-controlled solution using high-protein shakes and nutrient-rich options that are designed to maintain muscle while promoting fat loss. This approach is especially beneficial during the initial stages of a weight loss program or for those with difficulty maintaining nutritional consistency.

Reduces decision fatigue and cravings

Ensures proper protein and micronutrient intake

Offers measurable, short-term weight loss benefits

Medical supervision ensures safety and nutrient balance

Advanced support for appetite and metabolic control.

GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) receptor agonists like semaglutide are injectable medications that mimic the body’s natural satiety hormones. They work by enhancing insulin secretion, suppressing appetite, and slowing gastric emptying — which can lead to significant weight loss when combined with lifestyle changes.

Supports insulin regulation and blood sugar balance

Clinically shown to result in 10–15% body weight loss in many patients

Requires close monitoring by a medical provider

Reduces hunger and promotes a sense of fullness

A powerful hormone-based approach for appetite regulation.

Amylin analogues, such as pramlintide, are injectable medications that replicate the effects of the hormone amylin, which is naturally secreted with insulin. Amylin slows digestion, reduces food intake, and promotes satiety, making it a strong complement to GLP-1 therapy for eligible patients.

Regulates post-meal glucose spikes

Enhances feelings of fullness

Often used in combination with GLP-1s for greater effect

Tailored dosing based on individual patient profile
