What we are building
MyProgressMD is not a traditional supplement company. We are building a research-based metabolic wellness platform organized around structured programs, protein-first nutrition, and long-term consistency. The difference is not the products. It is the structure around them.
The problem we are solving
We are not competing against other supplement brands.
We are competing against confusion, inconsistency, and the absence of structured metabolic support.
Most people navigating GLP-1 therapy, bariatric surgery, weight loss, or metabolic change are handed a bottle and left to figure out the rest. What they need is a pathway — one that accounts for their stage, their goals, and what they can actually sustain over time.
The MyProgressMD Method
Protein deficiency can hide inside caloric excess. Eating enough is not the same as getting enough. Someone can be consuming plenty of calories and still fall short on the protein their body needs.
Lean muscle preservation matters. During weight loss, medication, surgery, or aging, protecting lean tissue is a core priority not an afterthought.
Most wellness programs fail because they are built around quick fixes. Structure and consistency do more over time than any single product.
Protein comes first. Everything else supports it. Every MyProgressMD program begins with protein-first nutrition, then layers in micronutrients, hydration, tolerance, and routine based on where the person actually is.
How the ecosystem is organized
Where our programs come from
MyProgressMD was developed inside a bariatric surgical practice. Dr. Ariel Ortiz Lagardere, MD, FACS, FASMBS, brings 30 years of clinical practice as a bariatric and metabolic surgeon, working with more than 25,000 patients. The MyProgressMD program itself has been 10+ years in development refined with real post-operative and metabolic patients, not assembled from marketing trends. That origin is the reason our programs are organized by journey rather than by product category.
Research-based wellness education
Structured nutrition only works when people understand it.
We are building an education library around the questions people actually face: protein-first nutrition, GLP-1 support, bariatric wellness, hormonal wellness, microbiome support, inflammatory wellness, and longevity.
The goal is not to sell more products. It is to make the right decision clearer.
