What is HCG?
HCG stands for, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, which is a glycoprotein hormone produced during pregnancy. HCG can be found in the urine of pregnant women when the hormone is at its highest levels. HCG can be made synthetically or extracted from the urine of pregnant women then processed for human use.
How does HCG work?
This method of weight reduction was developed by Dr. A.T.W. Simeon. In the human body we can distinguish three kinds of fat. The first is the structural fat which fills the gaps between various organs, a sort of packing material. The second type of fat is a normal reserve of fuel upon which the body can freely use as needed. Such normal reserves are localized all over the body. Fat is a substance which packs the highest caloric value into the smallest space. Normal reserves of fuel for muscular activity and the maintenance of body temperature can be most economically stored in this form. Both these types of fat, structural and reserve, are normal, and even if the body stocks them to capacity this can never be called obesity.
But there is a third type of fat which is entirely abnormal. It is the accumulation of this fat, and this fat only, from which the overweight person suffers. This abnormal fixed fat is also a potential reserve of fuel, but unlike the normal reserves it is not available to the body in a nutritional emergency. It is, so to speak, locked away in a fixed deposit and is not available for use, as are the normal reserves.
Most diet methods attack the easily available, necessary fat and the patient suffers fatigue, becomes haggard, skin begins to wrinkle and they lose fat from the wrong areas.
Dr. Simeon discovered that human chorionic gonadotrophin - HCG - attacks fixed fat first and injections of diluted HCG combined with a 500 calorie diet means that the patient loses the right fat without becoming fatigued, because the HCG triggers the movement of fixed fat enabling it to be burned off as fuel. This leaves the normal fat reserves not only unaffected but actually restored so that the patient has a fresh, healthy appearance.
Is HCG safe?
Womens bodies produce extremely high amounts of HCG when they are pregnant, as much as 200,000 IU per day without any ill effect; it is natures way to insure a healthy baby. The amount of HCG taken per day on this program is approximately 200 IU per day.
Why the 500 calorie diet?
HCG causes your hypothalamus to mobilize the fat out of the fixed fat storage locations so that its available for use. While you are only consuming 500 calories, your hypothalamus is continually releasing the fixed fat stored in your body. Because of this, your body is actually operating on thousands of calories a day. The result is your body burning thousands of calories each day which is the reason HCG dieters lose 1-2 pounds of fat or more, per day.
Will I be hungry on 500 calories a day?
It is common for mild hunger during the first few days, however this will pass and by the 2nd week you will find even very tiny servings, to be completely satisfying. This is partly due to your hypothalamus adjusting your metabolic rate, but largely due to the amount of calories circulating in your system from the fat being released. It is common that HCG dieters feel as though they are stuffing themselves in order to reach that 500 calorie limit.
Remember there are 3 primary sources of fuel for the body: Protein, carbohydrates and fat. Your body is normally programmed to use carbohydrates 1st, then protein 2nd and fat 3rd, when it can. By restricting your intake while on the HCG diet protocol of carbohydrates and fats, you are forcing your body to use your bodys stored fat first for energy. This adipose tissue, body fat, will be released by the HCG hormone while on the HCG diet protocol into your blood stream and fuel your body while the excess is excreted as waste. In effect you will have reprogrammed your body to burn fat 1st, then carbohydrates and spare the protein.
Will I have a headache while on the HCG diet protocol?
Some people may experience headaches in the first few days of the HCG diet protocol as your body becomes adjusted to how it is getting the energy it needs to operate (your bodys fixed fat vs. carbohydrates). Some people do not have headaches and some do the first few days on the program. Everyone has a different experience, but a headache is normal and will go away in a day or two.
The headache should be looked at as a signal of your body shifting what it uses for energy. At this delicate time you may be overwhelmed to just gorge on whatever is near. DON'T. The headache will go away. You are just extra sensitive to the switch that has taken place in your body. You can simply drink extra water (as some headaches are related to dehydration), take what you would usually take for a headache, make sure you are getting enough rest and it will pass.
Are there side effects when taking HCG while on the HCG diet protocol?
HCG is a natural hormone. Women are prescribed 5,000 to 10,000 IU in a day to stimulate ovulation and men are sometimes prescribed HCG to increase sperm where the recommended treatment dosage is upwards of 4,000 IU three times weekly for six to nine months. The HCG protocol recommends a small dose of 200 IU per day while actively on the protocol for 26 or 40 days.
Some HCG side effects and contraindications have been published while on high dosages in certain people with preexisting medical conditions. A complete health history and evaluation will be done with your first free consultation. However, in healthy individuals there have not been any HCG side effects while on the HCG diet protocol.
In some women, while taking HCG, it may cause a delayed menstrual cycle, early menstrual cycle, heavier flow, lighter flow and/or heavy cramping.
What is the hypothalamus gland?
The hypothalamus gland moderates the thyroid, adrenals, fat storage, and more importantly, your metabolic rate.
How does HCG work with a Very Low Calorie Diet?
Simply put, when a person restricts their calories to 500 per day along with daily doses of HCG, the HCG tricks the body into burning fat instead of muscle. Anytime a person goes on an extremely low calorie diet (without HCG) to lose weight the body does not release enough fat fast enough to provide energy due to the low calories. It is for this reason that crash diets normally dont work and are extremely unhealthy. Instead of burning fat the body begins burning lean muscle tissue, and at some point can begin breaking down your organs.
A Very Low Calorie Diet along with HCG has proven to work for over 50 years. The HCG causes the brain to send a signal to the body to begin breaking down the fat reserves for energy instead of breaking down muscle. This is not only healthier, but the weight loss is unbelievable.
Couldn't I lose as much weight eating only 500 calories and not taking the HCG?
Yes. The difference is what kind of weight you would lose and whether it would come right back. HCG targets FAT and FAT ONLY while starvation type diets target fat, plus muscle and in extreme dieting, your organs.
Will my metabolism slow down if I am on a very low calorie diet?
It is true that normally when cutting back on calories and fat, our body stores fat and our metabolism slows down. This happens because fat is really a life-saving source of stored energy. When a very low calorie diet is used in conjunction with the HCG, the hormone signals the body to use stored fat for energy, and eliminates excess fat reserves. Its a natural process, so no ill effects on your metabolism will result.
The Body Sculpting Benefits of HCG Treatments.
Many of the people that are using HCG to help them lose weight are finding that the hormone helps with the reshaping of their body as well. Unlike many weight loss programs that only help with losing weight, HCG appears to help contour the body and decrease the circumference of the body. HCG also helps tone common problem areas, such as reducing the amount of fat deposited in double chins and getting rid of pot bellies. HCG also appears to help rejuvenate structural fat, which helps make the hands, neck, and face look refreshed.
Individuals on the HCG diet are also supposed to follow a low calorie diet of only 500 calories per day. Without the help of HCG, a diet consisting of this few calories can result in a loss of muscle mass. Those on HCG, however, do not experience this side effect. In addition, the hormone appears to actually reduce the appetite, which makes it easier to adhere to the 500 calorie diet.
The Health Benefits of the HCG Diet
Obviously, shedding extra pounds will help improve the overall health of a person on the HCG diet. Researchers also believe that taking HCG helps to normalize the cholesterol levels of those on the diet. In addition, the hormone appears to help normalize the thyroid gland and balance the hormones while rebuilding the adrenaline glands.
The Emotional Benefits of the HCG Diet
People on the HCG diet also routinely report experiencing less irritability and generally feeling in a better mood. This lift in spirits seems to continue throughout the entire treatment period. Clients also report having more restful sleep, which may be partially responsible for the improved mood. Similarly, clients report feeling more energized while undergoing the therapy. This may be attributed to the improvement in sleep, the loss of excess weight, and the positive impact HCG has on the adrenaline glands.
For many, just the weight loss benefits of HCG would be enough to make this hormone worth taking. With these additional benefits, anyone looking to lose weight should seriously consider the HCG weight loss protocol.
Will I end up with a lot of wrinkles and stretch marks?
Glad you asked. This is where HCG differs in effect from all other weight loss regimens. HCG eliminates abnormal fat deposits. Double chins, pot bellies, and fat around the thighs are usually the first to shrink. Your body needs certain fats to remain available for healthy body function, and HCG does not reduce those needed for structural and essential tissues. HCG goes after the abnormal fat deposits first. Your body will get a new youthful appearance during the program.
Is HCG a Sex Hormone?
"It cannot be sufficiently emphasized that HCG is not a sex hormone, that its action is identical in men, women, children and in those cases in which the sex glands no longer function owing to old age or their surgical removal. The only sexual change it can bring about after puberty is an improvement of a pre-existing deficiency. It will never stimulate beyond the normal. In an indirect way via the anterior pituitary, HCG regulates menstruation and facilitates conception, but it never virilizes a woman or feminizes a man. It neither makes men grow breasts nor does it interfere with their virility, though where this was deficient it may improve it. It never makes women grow a beard or develop a gruff voice. I have stressed this point only for the sake of my lay readers, because, it is our daily experience that when clients hear the word hormone they immediately jump to the conclusion that this must have something to do with the sex-sphere. They are not accustomed as we are, to think thyroid, insulin, cortisone, adrenalin etc, as hormones." Dr. A.T.W. SIMEONS
How much weight can I expect to lose?
If the program is followed perfectly, men report a loss of 1 to 1.5 pounds per day. As a general rule women do not lose as much as men because women have less muscle mass, although some do lose around 1 pound per day. The average weight loss for a woman is between 0.5 to 1 pound per day.
Women that are taking hormone replacement drugs may not experience as much weight loss as other women.
Will I gain all my weight back after the HCG diet protocol?
YES. If you go back to old habits, eating junk food, over eating, not watching what you eat, eating unhealthy foods, leading a sedentary lifestyle and in general just thinking Ive lost weight so I can eat now, than you will gain back weight no matter what diet you decided on even the HCG diet protocol. Thats a fact. Obesity is a disease and its not about what diet you treat the disease with; it is about how you treat the disease long term to be really cured.
Consider the HCG diet protocol as a giant step toward a healthier you, resetting your metabolism, cleansing your body of impurities and gaining control over the disease process caused by junk and processed food, inactivity and unhealthy lifestyle.
How hard is it to keep the weight off once Ive lost it?
An average of 70% to 90% of people that have participated in the HCG diet have had no difficulty maintaining their new weight. After the HCG diet, which lasts between 7 and 9 weeks your appetite will have changed along with your body. Unless, you go completely back to your former habits, moderate exercise and healthy eating habits should help you maintain your weight loss.
Should women use HCG during their monthly menstrual cycle?
No. The best time for women to start the program is immediately after their period.
Will my birth control methods be affected by using HCG?
HCG will not interfere with any form of birth control.
Who can use the diet?
The treatment works for almost everyone, young, old, male, female. We will perform a health history and evaluation with your first free consult. Do NOT use HCG of any kind if you are pregnant or nursing.
How soon after my first round can I restart taking the HCG?
The minimum rest time between rounds is 3 weeks. (This helps prevent developing immunity to HCG.)
Are there any side effects with using HCG?
The vast majority of people report no problems. Some people report slight headaches which may be due to the HCG or to the Very Low Calorie Diet.
Some that are prone to migraines have reported migraines during the first week.
Who should not take HCG?
Pregnant women and women that are nursing should not take HCG.
Those with Cancer, Heart Disease, Kidney Disease, women that are pregnant, young children should not take HCG.
Will the HCG interfere with medications my doctor has prescribed to me?
HCG does not interfere with the vast majority of medications you may be taking. However, we will review your health history before you start the program.
Required Legal Statement: FDA has not approved HCG for weight loss and there is no substantial published evidence HCG is effective in obesity treatment.
