EMPATHETIC. NONJUDGEMENTAL. ENCOURAGING. HEALER.
Dr. Allison Haughton-Green, CEO and founder of The Orlando Institute of Weight Management, is living proof that lifestyle medicine can transform health and weight when the root causes of metabolic dysfunction are addressed. After struggling with weight and the effects of insulin resistance, she developed and successfully implemented her Insulin Resistance Weight Loss Program, which allowed her to lose 70 pounds of water weight and fat in just three short months.
Even more remarkable, she has maintained that weight loss for more than 17 years, demonstrating that sustainable results are possible when patients are equipped with the right knowledge and tools. Dr. Haughton-Green is deeply passionate about teaching her patients that true, lasting weight management is not dependent on quick fixes but on understanding how the body responds to food, hormones, and inflammation.
Her journey is a powerful testament to the 80/20 rule she teaches in her practice: 80% of successful weight management comes from learning how to implement an anti-inflammatory diet that stabilizes blood sugar levels and keeps insulin levels low, allowing the body to burn fat efficiently rather than store it.
The remaining 20% of success may include supportive therapies such as prescription medications like GLP-1 injections or tablets, targeted supplements, and consistent movement, which can enhance metabolic health when used appropriately. However, at the core of her philosophy is the belief that food is the most powerful drug we put into our bodies every single day. By educating her patients on how to choose nutrient-dense foods, read nutrition labels, avoid inflammatory ingredients, and prioritize balanced meals that support metabolic stability, Dr. Haughton-Green empowers them to take control of their health.
Through this educational and holistic approach, she teaches patients to develop the utmost respect for what they put into their mouths each day, ultimately helping them achieve not only weight loss but long-term metabolic wellness and disease prevention.
