HCG Diet Myth Buster

True or False - You cannot exercise while on the HCG Weight Loss Diet?

There are a lot of myths and misconceptions about the HCG Diet, and unfortunately people tend to believe everything that they hear. But with all of the negativity surrounding the HCG Diet, the myths are really starting to pile up.

One of these myths has to do with exercising on the HCG Diet. Most people think that you are not allowed to exercise during Phase 2.

But is it true that you cannot exercise on the HCG Weight Loss Diet?

No - This is just another one of those myths. The truth is you are free to exercise during Phase 2 or any other Phase of the HCG Diet. In fact, exercising a little bit everyday can even help you to lose weight.

This is what Dr. Simeons says about exercising on the HCG Diet...



Consider adding a brisk walk, some yoga, or any type of 15 minute activities to your day a few times a week--anything that raises the heart rate throughout the day. The activity increases your metabolism and may increase your rate of loss. Exercise is barely mentioned in the protocol. Our interpretation is that exercise is good for everyone; however, it is simply not required to successfully lose weight on this protocol.  That being said, we have observed participants who have a physically active job, such as a waitress, where the participant seemed to maintain a slightly higher daily average weight loss than those who did absolutely no physical activity.

One of the reasons that exercise is not encouraged more, is because most people using this VLCD would likely have no energy to do much else if they did do any sort of work-out.


Also, it's worth pointing out that people who do exercise on the HCG Diet, tend to experience muscle fatigue much less often than a someone who doesn't.


So it looks like this HCG exercising myth is busted!

HCG Diet Phase 2

If you don't know everything there is to know about Phase 2 of the HCG Diet, you need to keep reading... In my last post I gave you Phase 1 of the HCG Diet . And like I told you yesterday, the 1st phase of the diet is highly recommended. So if you haven't done it yet, make sure this is something that you at least consider before starting the 500 Calorie Diet. Now I am sure I don't have to tell you that Phase 2 is the most important part of the HCG Diet when it comes to losing weight. In fact, this is the phase that you will lose all of your weight in. So if you haven't read this part of the protocol, here is Phase 2 in its entirety... Phase 2 of the HCG Diet The entire manuscript that describes this protocol is entitled, Pounds and Inches: A New Approach to Obesity - by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, M.D.   (THIS PHASE MUST BE DONE UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF A LICENSED HEALTH CARE PRACTITIONER!) Day One: Take an injection of between 125-200 units of h

Buy Real HCG Here! The HCG Diet Plan is without a doubt the fastest and most effective way to lose  weight still even in 2024. However, simply eating 500-800 calories per day isn't enough to lose those unwanted pounds and inches; especially if you want to keep them off for good - For that you must also use high quality pharmaceutical grade HCG. These days though it can be tough to find a trusted company that offers the HCG Diet in full. That's why I recommend hcgRx to all of my readers. Over the years running The HCG 411 Blog I have seen a lot of different HCG companies come and go but none of them are like hcgRx. I have had many personal conversations with the owners and have never met someone who cares as much about their products and users as they do. hcgRx has a wide variety of HCG Diet packages and products to choose from online.  While most people prefer to do a single 28 day round at a time, there are longer rounds available that can be done depending on your weight los

The Nature Of HCG

The more I learn about the human body and the HCG Hormone, the more it amazes me. Today I wanted to share with you the nature of HCG, or as Dr. Simeons puts it... The Nature of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin "HCG is never found in the human body except during pregnancy and in those rare cases in which a residue of placental tissue continues to grow in the womb in what is known as a chorionic epithelioma. It is never found in the male. The human type of chorionic gonadotrophin is found only during the pregnancy of women and the great apes. It is produced in enormous quantities, so that during certain phases of her pregnancy a woman may excrete as much as one million International Units per day in her urine - enough to render a million infantile rats precociously mature. Other mammals make use of a different hormone, which can be extracted from their blood serum but not from their urine. Their placenta differs in this and other respects from that of man and the grea
