Functional Weight Loss

#1 Rated Functional Weight Loss Program!

Weight Loss Resistance?

Over the past 25+ years I've had the privilege of helping thousands of patients not only lose weight, but get healthy in the process. Our functional weight loss system is a revolutionary approach to losing fat fast.

It is the culmination of 20 years of testing, tweaking, refining, researching, and mastering a protocol that works. This is a clinically proven protocol backed by nearly 100 years of science and research. This isn't guesswork. This is NOT a one size fits all cookie cutter approach. This is the SOLUTION to weight loss struggles. I'm confident in saying this because I've seen first hand the lives that have been transformed. People getting off their cholesterol meds. People getting off their blood pressure meds. People sleeping better. People having more energy. People feeling less achy / inflamed.

In our clinic we have a saying..."We Don't Guess...We TEST!"

Believe it or not, not everybody should be eating green beans! Not everybody should be eating eggs, pineapple etc. This is why we FOOD TEST!

OUR APPROACH IS UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT

This is my biggest pet peeve with other programs out there. Most weight loss programs are 1 size fits all cookie cutter approaches. They give you a "generic" food list to follow.

But what if you are severely intolerant or had food sensitivities to chicken, broccoli etc.

How successful do you think you'd be?

The research is clear! Food sensitivities spike inflammation , harm the digestive system, and put stress on your immune system! And the truth is, it's VERY hard to lose weight when you're inflamed and eating the wrong foods over and over again!

We take an OBJECTIVE look at exactly how you should be eating based on a simple blood test. We test roughly 100 foods (in our clinic) and provide you with an acceptable master food list based on what your lab work shows!

This isn't guess work! The reason we get such great results is that we dig deep and CUSTOMIZE your protocol!

A protocol that will improve your digestive function...immune function and REDUCE overall systemic inflammation! Take a look at a food test graph below! No two people react to foods the same!

Frequently Asked Questions!

What Makes You Different From Other Programs Out There?

What makes us different is that we take an OBJECTIVE look at your entire body. We take a "holistic" look at the big picture. We use objective 3rd party testing to get the results we're looking for. We're not into generic 1 size fits all "cookie cutter" approaches. We want to give you a long-term sustainable solution. And please remember, fat melts off your body as a side effect of getting healthy. Our primary goal is to get you healthy once again.

What Happens On The Discovery Call?

Very simple. Dr. Paul Garcia will ask you some questions, do a thorough health history, and determine if you're a case he can accept. If he thinks he can help he'll give you that option. If he doesn't think he can help, he'll work to find somebody who can.

Are Your Programs Safe?

ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and there is nothing like it. There are very few doctors that will do objective functional testing and work towards finding the ROOT CAUSE of the health challenge. Most simply give a med / chemical cover up.

How Much Does Your Program Cost?

It's hard to know without having a quick discovery call to determine your goals. A person looking to lose 15 pounds will be different from a person looking to lose 150 pounds. Keep in mind we are ALL unique & different and every patient has a unique care plan that is different from anybody else. We do this via our objective lab testing etc. But this is why we do complimentary discovery calls to determine if our functional weight loss program would make sense for you etc.

Does Insurance Pay For Functional Medicine?

Unfortunately no insurance company pays for weight loss. However, if you're MOTIVATED we'll work with you. Our protocols are very affordable and keep in mind that we've never turned anybody away because of finances. 

Where Is Your Clinic Located?

We are 100% virtual. The beautiful thing about functional medicine and our functional approach is that it can be done from ANYWHERE! After our initial discovery call (to determine if our protocol makes sense for you) we'll provide you with test kits so TOGETHER we can customize a safe, natural, & highly effective protocol based on YOUR individual needs. 

Do I Have To Come Into Your Office To Get Started?

Nope! Our practice is 100% virtual. All of our discovery calls are done over the phone.

Will I Have To Swallow A Lot Of Pills?

We will provide recommendations based on where you're nutrient deficient / depleted. Again, this is based on the testing that is performed. We'll give you supplement recommendations as well as give you food recommendations to eat more of that are abundant in the nutrients where you're depleted. 

Do You Provide Support / Accountability?

YES! Even though our functional protocols are done virtually, we provide Footer24/7 email support. If you have a question / obstacle to work through we'll provide you the support & guidance you need.

Will I Have To Exercise?

Only if you want to. Obviously exercise is a good & healthy thing to do but it's not mandatory while doing our program. Our program is food based with a functional approach so we're not going to say go do a bunch of strenuous exercise to lose fat. Again, you can if you want to but that's not our main focus.

Do I Have To Count Calories?

No! No counting calories or points or anything that is cumbersome, confusing, or NOT sustainable long-term. It's more about eating the right foods for YOU, again done via the testing we do and our functional approach!

Do You Prescribe Medications?

No. We don't give medications. What we do is safe, natural, & highly effective. We do this WITHOUT harmful medications or risky procedures.

Will This Program Give Me Suggestions On What To Eat?

Absolutely! So many people come to us with "food confusion". We also call this "INFObesity". There is so much conflicting information out there that they get paralyzed and confused. We help you break through this confusion and give you CLARITY via our objective 3rd party lab testing we do.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had been suffering from thyroid disease and other health issues for many years, but in the last 2 years my health had really gone down hill. Conventional medicine was just adding more prescriptions and I still wasn’t able to live the active lifestyle I wanted.

I wanted to be healthy, to be able to hike, and go to theme parks, ride horses, or whatever other fun thing my family wants to do and not have to either sit on the sidelines and watch or them skip it and pretend they didn’t really want to do that activity in the first place.

Well it had only been 30 days. But in that 30 days, my energy is back, my breathing has been better, my stomach has been less tight and swollen. My lifelong allergies are no longer an issue. I can eat beef and pork again. I lots 18 pounds and I can’t wait to continue to see what other results I get. I never thought my body could heal this fast, let alone with just natural treatments.

I’ve been very impressed with how good I feel, all the things I have learned and with your willingness to answer any and all questions.

I feel that I’m getting my life back.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Garcia and already have. Of course I would want my friends to have the same feeling of hope and health as I have had. That is a no brainer.

Jennifer S.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was unable to function as a mother, a partner or at work at a therapist. I was at the doctor frequently, emergency room and urgent care. I was spitting up blood for several months, my energy was extremely low and I could not do basic things.

I could not digest my food. The doctors could not find anything wrong with me, despite spitting blood. I was eventually diagnosed with severe intestinal inflammation and Hashimoto's. After biopsys I was told I was developing abnormal intestinal tissue, ulcers and acid reflux. On top of all the physical issues I was also dealing with panic attacks and severe anxiety.

I was recommended to Dr. Garcia approx 10 years ago by a family who’s daughter had Autism. After 6 months of being on Dr. Garcia’s protocol my symptoms cleared up and I no longer needed surgery. My energy levels are back. I am feeling good. I do not feel poisoned like I did before working with Dr. Garcia. I am no longer spitting blood and my digestion has greatly improved. My anxiety or what I thought was anxiety disappeared. My headaches are gone and I feel like myself again!

I began feeling better after just 2 weeks and after 3 weeks I felt amazing. I feel Dr. Garcia is very thorough with evaluating my symptoms. His recommendations really work!

Angie P.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough about the positive experience and results I’ve had as a patient of Dr. Garcia’s. I came to Dr. Garcia four years ago after being fed up with other physicians’ “quick fix” approaches to my thyroid, PCOS, Amenorrhea, oily skin and hair, hormonal acne, depression, anxiety, and infertility. I knew that I needed to find a doctor who would do more than prescribe pills.

After the initial consultation, I knew I had struck gold with Dr. Garcia. After the first week on his protocol, I felt the fog lifting. Subsequent visits focused on helping me eliminate toxins, repair my adrenal glands, heal my gut and overcome multiple nutritional deficiencies. Soon, I noticed that my hormones seemed to be stabilizing. It was easier for me to maintain a healthy weight, my acne and oily skin began clearing up, and my mood improved. He was confident that my menstrual cycle would eventually even out and encouraged me when I had given up on that possibility, and thus, had given up on ever conceiving my own child naturally. About one year later, I had regained my menstrual cycle and a few month after that, I was surprised to find that I was pregnant! Amazing! And not only did I become pregnant, I had a healthy pregnancy and just recently have given birth to a beautiful and perfect 10 pound baby girl!

I could not ask for more. I am so grateful for the care of Dr. Garcia who has truly found his calling. He is a cut above the rest and he genuinely cares about his patients’ overall health and wellness. Thank you, Dr. Garcia!
