Transformations Ultra Lite Weight Loss Program
Nature’s Helper Naturopathic Clinic offers the innovative Ultra Lite weight loss program for those interested in a permanent and healthy weight loss solution. Developed by a Naturopathic doctor in Australia, Ultra Lite has been in use for almost 20 years with over 1,000,000 people achieving success. The results speak for themselves. Without the use of drugs or stimulants, Ultra Lite offers an average weight loss of 2-4 pounds per week. The Ultra Lite program teaches individuals how to eat the correct portion sizes and types of foods. It is well structured, easy to follow, and eliminates guesswork.
Weight loss occurs because of the specific ratio of protein to carbohydrates used. Eating the proper ratio of protein to carbohydrates, getting adequate caloric intake, and regular exercise helps to preserve lean body mass while losing fat. Ultra Lite is turn-key because it ensures four essential components of a successful weight loss and weight maintenance program.
- Weight lost is from fat (not muscle)
- Foods that are eaten are available from the regular grocery store
- Ultra Lite identifies food allergies and sensitivities
- A Naturopathic physician addresses underlying conditions
Unbalanced diets typically don’t work, especially in the long-term. Ultra Lite is safe to follow long-term because it is based upon healthy and balanced food choices. New research is proving that ketogenic diets are cancer preventative and beneficial for people with chronic health conditions such as seizure disorders and cystic fibrosis, with no negative side effects.
The Program in Action
Prior to the first Ultra Lite visit, a new patient must first have a general assessment, which may include baseline labs. When starting Ultra Lite, everything that is needed to properly follow the eating plan will be provided. Most people transition into a fat burning metabolism by day three of the program and continue to check each morning with a simple home test. Office visits are weekly for the first five weeks and then biweekly until goal weight is reached. Every visit includes weight, blood pressure, and body measurements. Participants keep a diet diary which is reviewed at the visit and questions can be addressed.
In addition to regular food, participants consume four tasty New Zealand whey protein packets daily (Diasnacks). These come in a variety of flavors and contain xylitol, which is a natural and healthy non-caloric sweetener. The packets provide an abundance of vitamins, minerals and amino acids and serve to keep blood sugar balanced in-between meals. For those with severe dairy allergy, there is an alternative pea protein packet. A potassium supplement and possibly a multivitamin are used while on the program. People with certain medical conditions may need one or two additional nutrients. Eight glasses of water are consumed daily to aid with detoxification.
Insurance is accepted for Ultra Lite office visits. There are some additional out-of-pocket costs for Ultra Lite, $125 when you start the program and $196 per month after that. Once goal weight is reached, participants are placed on a well-balanced maintenance program with periodic office visits.

What Are Patients Saying About Ultra Lite?
“I was on the Ultra Lite diet for three months and was able to lose 30 pounds. I am going through perimenopause, so I had put on 15 pounds in addition to the extra weight I had accumulated the past four years. I haven’t had trouble losing weight in the past, but I found that with my fluctuating hormones and the changes my body was going through I was unable to lose the weight. The extra weight made me feel tired, uncoordinated, and feel 15 years older. The Ultra Lite diet was easy to follow and I had more energy. I started sleeping better at night and had fewer digestive problems. The weight loss was steady and I found that I was losing fat, not just pounds. I was delighted to discover that after I had completed the diet I had developed healthier eating habits which have helped me to keep the weight off. I would recommend this diet to anyone who is having difficulty losing weight in a healthy manner.”

“When I came in to see Dr. Stacey in November of 2011, I was still holding on to 20 extra pounds from my second child, and nothing I tried seemed to get the weight off. Because I am an actress, appearance is very important for me professionally, and I was frustrated. I didn’t want to spend lots of money on some quick-fix plan that only worked short-term. Dr. Stacey recommended that I try Ultra Lite, and I admit I was very skeptical. But then the weight started coming off. And I was NEVER hungry, I had LOTS of energy, and maintaining the weight loss has been a breeze. As an added bonus, losing the weight has given my new confidence and I have had steady work in the field that I love. I highly recommend Ultra Lite for an affordable, healthy, long-term way to manage both your weight and your health.”
