The hCG Diet: Effective Weight Loss or Dangerous Fad?

Is The HCG Diet Just Another Fad Diet?

Many of you who want to keep healthy may be thinking about trying yet another diet and dietary supplement. Or, on the other hand, some of you may have already heard about the hCG diet, and may want to experience the miracle results of this plan. However, before you begin to learn how to lose weight by using hCG supplements and injections, you will want to learn more about this diet. Read on to find out more about the hCG diet: 

What is the hCG Diet?

The hCG diet was first developed by Albert T. W. Simeons, a British endocrinologist, who observed that a diet of few calories and an injection of hCG would allow users to lose weight, not muscles mass, due to the high presence of hCG, a hormone naturally present in the body during pregnancy. Simeons injected overweight patients with low-doses of hCG, and also restricted their diet and found they lost pure fat, not muscle mass. During this time, Simeons was practicing in Rome, Italy. He recommended daily low-dose injections (125 IU) of hCG, along with a low calorie, high protein, low carb diet, to quickly lose weight and burn fat. For more information, you should consult a book by Albert T. W. Simeons, or look for a book that deals more specifically with the hCG diet. These can give you better ideas about what diet plan to follow, what your recommended dosage of hCG per day should be, and how to lead a healthy lifestyle while following this breakthrough dieting plan. 

How Does it Work?

It is believed that hCG is a compound that is used not only to help determine if a woman is pregnant or not, but that this compound diverts nutrients, fats, and calories to the fetus of a pregnant woman, so that her fetus gets what it needs to survive. Often, fat is removed from “problem areas” in this way during pregnancy, because these nutrients are being diverted elsewhere in the body. The effect is the same in patients who take hCG supplements or injections. Those who take such injections can eat a balanced diet, engage in exercise, and see real weight loss results over time. The hCG compound which is injected, helps to rush fat away from your body. 

Results:

Weight loss will certainly occur on this diet. You are sure to see real results over a period of time. Although weight loss results will differ, greatly, many patients claim to see a difference after only a little time of hCG use. You can experience these same benefits through the use of an hCG supplement or injection, which is widely available online. Look for reputable dealers of this product, however. Many are raving about just how effective this diet can be. Patients will see loss of unwanted fat, weight, and inches off their bodies. The hCG diet is a fantastic way to boost your weight loss unlike any other supplement out on the market today.
