Should You Use Salt On The HCG Diet

Is it okay to use salt on the HCG Diet?

This is one question that people seem to ask all of the time and the fact is - that no where in the HCG Diet Protocol does it say that you can't have salt.

So what does the Protocol say about salt:

"Though we allow the free use of salt, the daily amount taken should be roughly the same, as a sudden increase will of course be followed by a corresponding increase in weight as shown by the scale.

An increase in the intake of salt is one of the most common causes for an increase in weight from one day to the next. Such an increase can be ignored, provided it is accounted for, it in no way influences the regular loss of fat."

So basically, even though you are allowed to have salt, don't over-do it. Me and my wife Suzy have found that it is better for Phase 2 and Phase 3, if you start using Sea Salt - rather than regular salt. We like it and there is really no big difference as far as taste goes.

However, unlike most table salts...

Sea Salt is NOT
  • Bleached
  • Kiln dried 
  • Heated 
  • Altered with chemicals
Sea Salt is just all around better to use - on or even off of the HCG 500 Calorie Diet.



Have you had sea salt before?

HCG Diet Steak Day

Are you wondering how to do an HCG Diet Steak Day? In yesterdays post, " What To Do After The HCG Injections Stop " we talked about the goal of the Maintenance Phase - Which of coarse is to stay within 2 pounds of what you weighed on your last injection day, or on the last day of taking your HCG Drops or Pellets.

HCG Diet Phase 1

How Much Do You Really Know About Phase 1 Of The HCG Diet? Today I was reading up on Kevin Trudeau's Weight Loss Protocol, when I came across Phase 1 of the HCG Diet. And as I was reading I thought, this would be a great topic for today's blog post. However I must warn you it's kind of long. Oh who am I kidding, it's very long. So make sure that you set aside a little bit of time to read it. Now while you are reading this article try to remember, Phase 1 is not something that everyone does - But if you do decide to do it you will likely experience greater success during Phase 2. So, even though this part of the diet is not required, it is highly recommended.
