HCG Diet Phase 4: LIFE!

HCG Diet Phase 4, How Much Do We Really Know About The 4th And Final Phase?


Doing Yoga for HCG Diet Phase 4With so many HCG Protocols that have been written, finding the right information can be difficult if not impossible. You'd think that with more information about the HCG Diet, finding out about the different phases would be easier - But it's not. In fact, by the end of their research people seem to be more confused than before they started their quest for HCG Diet info.

The fact is, we have companies producing what I commonly refer to as Fake HCG, who decide to come up with their own protocols to better suit their fake product. This is probably because they know how dangerous the diet can be for a person without the use of Pharmaceutical HCG.

What you have now is, an HCG Protocol that refers to HCG Diet Phase 2, as Phase 1, and HCG Diet Phase 4 now becomes Phase 3, and people simply looking for information about the diet now become confused.

But before I get too far ahead of myself, I want to go ahead and explain which protocol I am referring to. The main HCG Diet Protocol I like to stick to is Dr. Simeons HCG Diet Plan Pounds and Inches, as it's referred to in Kevin Trudeau's book, Weight Loss Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About.

In his book Kevin sticks with Dr. Simeons main concept of the HCG Diet, while applying it to today's world. This is how the Phases are layed out in Kevin's book.


HCG Diet Phases:



  • Phase 1: HCG Diet Phase 1 is the phase before the actual 500 Calorie Diet begins. Some HCG protocols list this as the VLCD, but it's not. This part of the diet is not mandatory, therefore it is rarely done by people. I think this is most likely because people are so excited with the prospect of losing weight, that they just want to dive right into the weight loss Phase, which is actually Phase 2.

    HCG Diet Phase 1 is more of a prep phase that has you doing a body cleanse, taking supplements, drinking Green Tea and various other steps.

    It really is a shame that more people don't use this part of the diet - If they did, they would find that it makes the weight loss Phase much more effective.


  • Phase 2: HCG Diet Phase 2 is the phase where you would actually begin taking the HCG Hormone, doing your 2 or 3 Gorge Days depending on what you prefer, and beginning the 500 Calorie Diet Phase, aka the VLCD. This part of the diet is the only part when you take the HCG Hormone, and should only be done with Pharmaceutical HCG. And it is mandatory that you stick to the HCG Diet food list during P2.


  • Phase 3: HCG Diet Phase 3 is the Maintenance Phase of the HCG Diet and it is crucial to keeping the weight off. It was designed to help you stabilize and maintain your new weight. During Phase 3 you will increase your daily intake of calories and at the same time practice healthy portion control. After 3 weeks of Phase 3 you will gradually introduce starches and sugars back into your normal diet.

Now Phase 4 for some reason is the Phase that no one really seems to talk about - It's probably because most people know nothing about it. However, P4 is going to be the phase that determines whether or not you did the other Phases correctly.


  • Phase 4: HCG Diet Phase 4 is the phase simply known as LIFE! By the time you reach this phase you should have already hit your target weight loss goal.

    During Phase 4, aka everyday life, you should not have the urge to eat constantly, you will eat more normal portions, and your metabolism should be able to burn calories at a higher rate.

You should also try to do the following things...


  • Eat organic food.
  • Do not eat out.
  • Do colon cleanses.
  • Drink at least 1/2 Gallon of water everyday.
  • Always eat breakfast.
  • Exercise and take daily walks.
  • Use organic raw apple cider vinegar as often as possible.
  • Use virgin coconut oil as often as possible.
  • No artificial sweeteners.
  • Get plenty of sleep - At least 8 hours per night.
  • Take a whole food supplement.
  • Do Yoga.
  • Get plenty of sun.
  • Eat hot peppers as often as possible. (If you can handle spicy foods - I however cannot)
  • Use Stevia as a sweetener.
  • Get massages.
  • Sit in a sauna.
  • Do stress reducing techniques.

Don't feel bad if you can't do everything that is suggested in Phase 4, but you should always try to do as much of the list as often as possible.

However, you should avoid doing the following at all costs...


  • Avoid highly refined sugars like high fructose corn syrup.
  • Don't eat genetically modified food.
  • No trans fats.
  • No food with nitrites.
  • No propylene glycol or sodium laureth sulfate.
  • No artificial sweeteners.

Of coarse if for some reason you do slip up from time to time don't worry you are not doomed. But you should however try to live the new Phase 4 lifestyle as much as you possibly can.

Cheese On The HCG Diet - Is It Allowed?

Is cheese one of the items on the HCG 500 Calorie Diet Menu? Anyone who has read the HCG Diet Protocol knows that there are a lot of different rules to follow. On top of it all, you have to remember which foods you can and cannot eat. However, what people usually remember more than anything is that list of foods you can have is much smaller than the foods that you can't. Still, it can be quite a task to memorize that list in such a short period of time. I guess this is why people always ask my wife and I which foods are allowed during Phase 2 of the HCG Weight Loss Diet - One of the more common foods we are asked about is cheese. Now I love cheese probably more than the average person, so I can definitely understand why people are hoping and praying that it's listed on the HCG Diet Menu. And this brings us to the question we are here to answer... Can You Have Cheese On The HCG 500 Calorie Diet? I think deep down inside most of you already knew that the answer ...

How The Hypothalamus Works

What the Hypothalamus Gland does and why it's so important to fix it... The Hypothalamus Gland is located directly below the Thalamus which is at the center of the brain. It controls many automatic functions of the human body. So this means that it can tell the autonomic nervous system what to do. The Hypothalamus also controls pituitary output by distributing certain chemicals to the pituitary's frontal lobe. To put it more simply, the Hypothalamus Gland organizes and controls many complex emotions, feelings and moods. It also controls all motivational states including hunger, appetite and food intake, and everything to do with the concept of pleasure including satisfaction, comfort and creative activities. The neurons in the Hypothalamus produce a number of Hypothalamic Neurotransmitters which relay information and instruction to all parts of the brain and body, directly influencing the Pituitary Gland. This is where the Growth Hormone, Thyroid Hormone Releasi...

HCG Diet Dangers

HCG Diet Dangers - Are there any? And if so, what are they? So what are the dangers associate with the HCG Diet? If you were to Google the term " HCG Diet Dangers ", you would get a bunch of sites trying to sell you something related to the HCG Diet. A lot of the websites that you will run into trying to find the answer to this question, are nothing more than marketers using fear tactics to get you to buy their product. So try not to get pulled in by this sort of thing. The truth is there are some HCG Diet Dangers, but they're probably not as bad as you think. In fact, some of them are human errors that make this method of weight loss the most dangerous. I'm talking about things like getting an infection from not cleaning your syringe. While getting an infection from a syringe is a danger that is associated with the HCG Diet, it is a mistake that a human makes that causes it. Therefore, the danger can be eliminated if you can only remember to use alcohol pads...
