The use of HCG injections or HCG Pills and a healthy diet and eating regimen can allow you to lose “UP TO A POUND A DAY” on this weight loss program.

HCG Weight Loss Programs

The HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) weight loss plan was developed by a British doctor, Dr. A.T. W. Simeons. HCG is a natural hormone excreted by the placenta during pregnancy. The two main components of the HCG weight loss plan are regular injections of the natural hormone HCG, combined with a 500 calorie diet of limited food choices. Advocates of the HCG weight loss plan purport that the HCG injections allow dieters to stave off the side effects that are associated with low calorie diets, such as:

• Hunger
• Lightheadedness
• Fatigue
• More

HCG alone will not make you lose weight; a strict diet plan must also be followed. The HCG weight loss plan, when followed properly, has produced up to 40 lbs of healthy weight loss for thousands of people. For most, the weight stays off and their lifestyles are greatly improved because the HCG weight loss plan allows dieters to find the reasons behind their weight management issues.

The HCG Diet

The HCG diet is a weight loss plan developed by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, a British doctor. The two main components of the diet include regular injections of Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and a 500 calorie daily diet of limited food choices. Advocates of the diet believe that the injections of HCG allow a dieter to reduce the side effects typically associated with a low-calorie diet, such as hunger.

HCG is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy. The substance almost completely controls the woman's metabolic functions during this time; however, the HCG used in the diet protocols is usually synthetic.

HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin) alone will not make you lose weight, it is only one small piece of a specialized weight loss program which when followed properly has produced up to 40 pounds of healthy weight loss for thousands of people. With most, the weight stays off, and their quality of life drastically improves. This happens because we focus on finding the reason for their weight management issues and help our patients to properly understand the program that will work for them.
