You’ll be creating a new approach to food, exercise and dieting unlike anything you’ve tried before — and will develop a mental attitude that, no matter what it takes, you will reach your goal weight!

We use three modalities at once to help you gain control over your weight.

Support

You are not in this alone. Our MD supported program provides regular meetings with our health experts to give guidance with behavioral changes, psychological understanding & nutritional discipline as well as accountability. We believe this is key to a positive weight loss experience & helping you achieve & sustain your weight loss goal.

Supplements & Medication

Our combination of naturally compounded medications, including Semaglutide and Tirzepatide (Manjaro), along with pharmaceutical-grade supplements, will help you lose weight by burning fat, reducing cravings, suppressing your appetite, and enhancing your energy. These agents will support you in safely achieving rapid weight loss.

Success & Balance

This program is designed in four phases to help you achieve maximum weight loss in a healthy time period. Throughout the program you will learn how to make healthy food choices and develop a new way of thinking about dieting and eating. With this knowledge you will be able to reach and maintain your goal weight while improving the quality of your life.

Appropriate use of medication can help speed up and regulate the process.

If you are struggling to lose weight, here is some good news: Carolina Healthspan Institute is now prescribing a physician-supervised FDA approved weight loss drug clinically proven to decrease appetite, reduce food cravings and improve glycemic control. Our new FDA approved medication shows great promise for patients who are having difficulty losing weight. No surgery. No expensive meal plans. No dangerous drugs. Discover how to safely and effectively achieve LASTING weight loss, once and for all, by asking about the benefits of Semaglutide.

Let our health coaches ensure your body gets what it needs.

During your appointments with your health coach, you will learn about the three pillars of weight loss. You will be given tools and strategies to develop a mental attitude that, no matter what it takes, you will reach your goal weight. Lasting change requires a complete mind shift in the way we think about food and dieting. This coaching will address changing your mindset which is key to changing your habits. You will dramatically increase your weight loss results by learning simple steps to help you rethink about your approach to food, diet and lifestyle.

Use nutrition coaching to help keep your weightloss on track.

Your Health Coach will guide you every step of the way during your weight loss journey. You will have regularly scheduled appointments to help keep you informed of the program while giving you help and support to achieve the program requirements. We have found that encouragement and accountability are a huge part of weight loss success. During your meetings, your Health Coach will track your success and create goals to maximize your weight loss.

Track your results and progress with the InBody Body Composition Scan.

Body composition is used by our health professionals to evaluate a person’s weight by breaking it down into its core components: fat, protein, minerals, and body water. It describes your healthy weight more accurately and provides a better glimpse into your overall health than traditional methods like BMI & weight. Body composition analysis can accurately show changes in fat mass, lean muscle mass, and body fat percentage.
