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?
