Anyone who needs to lose at least 10 lbs., between ages 16 to 65 years old, and just want to feel healthy again may undergo the Cohen Program. The Cohen Program is particularly beneficial if you are experiencing the following:

Health and safety is our no. 1 priority. You have to be generally healthy to undergo any rapid weight loss program. If you have a heart condition, severe liver and kidney problem, pregnant, breast-feeding, diabetic on insulin or medication, or a vegan, you may not undergo the Cohen Program. Dr Cohen will assess your medical history and blood test results to establish the suitability of the Cohen Program for you. If Dr Cohen does not think it is not healthy for you, he will not allow you to do the program.

Food is not provided. You will be given a personalized Eating Plan prescription that is based on the unique bio-chemical profile of your blood. The food quantity you will be prescribed to eat is designed for your rapid but healthy weight loss.

The Cohen Program is not a diet, it is a lifestyle. We also provide cooking lessons to teach how to prepare your healthy and delicious Cohen meals (optional) so you can independently cook your own food and maintain your weight after the Cohen Program.

Succeeding on the Cohen Program requires some level of preparation and organization. Planning your meals on a weekly basis will go a long way to ensure your success. A lot of our clients lead busy lifestyles including extensive travelling and yet still succeed on the Program. Our Consultant will share and guide you on how to continue to adhere to the program while travelling or eating out. Furthermore, our closed Facebook group community is very active and you can get a lot of ideas and support from other people who lead a similarly busy lifestyle like yours.

Your unique Eating Plan will not “trigger” another person’s body into correcting its hormonal imbalance. It may well cause even more imbalance and illness! In some cases of ‘copying’ we have come across people who have initially lost weight, but gained it very rapidly when going off the Program. Because the treatment was not meant for them their HGH has not been ‘triggered’.

Dr Cohen’s Program is based on an internationally accepted medical research and sound facts. It stimulates the hormones with specific food combinations and quantities, so that the body starts burning its own fat and efficiently uses the food you eat. Dr. Cohen analyses your blood chemistry to tailor the program for you so you will get a prescription based on what your body needs without causing hunger, weakness or cravings. In fact, your energy will increase while on the Cohen Program.

Exercise is not required to lose weight while on the Cohen Program. If you do not exercise now you do not need to start, especially if you are very overweight. You can start when you are lighter, but always in moderation. If you exercise at present, you may continue in moderation. The Cohen Program is not designed to accommodate strenuous exercise. Listen to your body. If it hurts, if you feel dizzy or your appetite increases dramatically, you need to temporarily reduce the intensity or frequency of your exercise.

No. What is important is what Dr. Cohen prescribes i.e. the specific food types, quantities and combinations.

No. The Program consists of food from all the different groups. It is a balanced Eating Plan.

Your Program is based on your blood test results, not blood type. The blood tests allow an analysis of certain aspects of your system which in turn indicates what is required to get your body hormones back in balance. This approach therefore designs a treatment unique to your requirements and it will ‘trigger’ your HGH and result in weight-loss and other health benefits.

In today’s modern way of life every adult will benefit from supplementing his or her diet with essential vitamins and trace elements. The combination of the multi-vitamins and minerals enhance the benefits derived from the Eating Plan and will make you achieve wellness even sooner.

The rate of weight-loss differ by individual. Certain factors affect the rate of weight loss including gender, amount of weight you have to lose and how closely you follow your Program. Recorded statistics suggests that on average, women lose 8-10lbs per month while men lose more. Your body will release fat at the rate that is healthy for you.

Dr Cohen uses a Goal Weight Calculator to estimate the weight appropriate for you depending on your age, sex, height and shoe size (an approximation of your body built). However your body will give you signs when it is at its natural goal weight and this is when you are at your metabolic equilibrium and ready for the Refeeding Program.

The Cohen Program is not a diet, it is a lifestyle. If you follow your Eating Plan and then the Refeeding Program to stabilise your weight, chances are you will not need this Program again. You have a medical condition that can be controlled using the information you learn while on the Program.

Upon reaching your goal weight and after completing the Re-feeding Plan to aid in the long term stability of your weight, we will teach you how to live ‘the life after’ using the Cohen’s Management Guidelines so you can eat what you used to enjoy, in moderation.

If you are pregnant you cannot start the Program as it is rapid weight-loss and it is not suited to you. The Cohen Program improves an individual’s fertility and if you become pregnant while on the Program then for the same reasons you must stop the Program. The ideal situation would be to go on the Program, lose and stabilise your weight properly (3 months after Re-feeding program) and then fall pregnant.

While breastfeeding Dr Cohen does not believe it is healthy for you or your baby to be restricting your food intake and experiencing rapid fat loss. The Program will affect your milk supply. When your baby is no longer dependent on breast-milk and you are only breastfeeding for comfort, you can do the Program.

This Program is unique because it is based on your blood test results (not blood type). Your Eating Plan is a specifically tailored Program for your body’s needs and will work for you the best. It is based on many years of research and a data bank of many thousands of programs and their results. Dr Cohen is a specialist not only in the field of nutrition but also in fertility and hormones.

Only MyLifestyle Incorporated (trading as Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre Singapore) owns the trademark ‘Cohen’ and it has no certified or authorized Cohen food delivery or Cohen friendly restaurants. We have received complaints of food ingredients/preparation not being fully compliant to the Cohen Program and thus, could be slowing down the rate of weight loss. Clients give us feedback on Cohen friendly restaurants which prepares their food when they go out but we cannot guarantee or certify their adherence to the Program principles. To learn the healthy lifestyle and to ensure optimum weight loss while on the Program, we recommend for you to prepare your own food.
