You may have heard a lot about people losing weight on the HCG diet and you may be wondering if it will work for you as well. The average weight loss with the HCG drops combined with the very low calorie diet is about a pound a day.
Wouldn’t it be great to lose 35-40 pounds in 43 days? Yes, but wouldn’t it be even better to keep the weight off long term? With the HCG diet, you can have both!
Facts about the HCG diet
The HCG diet was created by a medical doctor who used HCG hormone injections and a 500-calorie a day diet of very specific foods to help his obese patients lose weight. Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, a noted British endocrinologist, saw the possibilities for HCG and weight loss when he observed the effect that a tiny amount of HCG had on the “fat boys” of India.
HCG, otherwise known as human chorionic gonadotrophin, is a natural hormone most abundant during pregnancy. It is also used as a fertility treatment in both men and women. HCG triggers the hypothalamus in the brain to signal the body to use deep fat stores as active calories. Fat is released into the bloodstream, any nutrients are used, and the rest is burned off.
When combined with Dr. Simeon’s very low calorie diet of lean meat, vegetables and fruits, significant weight loss occurs without the overwhelming hunger (starvation) you would feel if you were to eat only 500 calories per day. On average, 2000-4000 calories from body fat are released and eliminated daily on the HCD diet plan.
HCG drops vs. injection
Dr. Simeons gave his patients HCG injections because at that time, in the 1950s, the only version of the hormone available was given as shots and required a prescription. Today, homeopathic HCG is available and affordable. It works exactly the same as HCG shots, but is much easier and more common since a prescription is not required.
You just use a dropper to place drops under your tongue every few hours throughout the day. Just as synthetic insulin is the same as the body’s own insulin and is taken every day by diabetics, HCG drops are the same as the HCG hormone created in the human body.
When you buy HCG drops online, make sure you find a reputable company. Take a look at the comparison chart at which shows you what to look for when buying HCG drops online. Resources like this are important to figure out who to trust.
When buying hCG drops online, you should make sure they are manufactured in the USA. They are required to follow the procedures in the homeopathic pharmacopoeia, which guides the production of homeopathic remedies and supplements. Never use Western Union to pay, and never, ever buy from eBay or Craigslist, as you are likely to be scammed and end up with flavored water or nothing at all. It happens every day. You’ll know you’re not getting scammed when you see names and pictures of the company owners and staff, as well as full contact information (not a PO box), and a phone number answered during working hours by a person, not voice mail.
HCG drops are not painful like injections and some people who have experienced both, report that they have a lot more energy and no hunger on the drops. If you have tried and tried to lose weight with no long-lasting results, or if you have that last 10-20 pounds to lose in those stubborn “problem” areas, you are exactly the person Dr. Simeons had in mind when he created the HCG diet.
