The hCG Diet is one that I have never heard about until now! If beauty isn't already painful enough, some faddys say that this shot is the key to weight loss.
HCG stands for Human Choriogonadotropin, which is a hormone produced by pregnant women. Some think injecting this into your body will cause you to lose weight along with following a low calorie meal plan of 500 calories a day. With my fear of needles, all five hundred of those calories would be sweat out of my body before I would even get my daily shot.
It is said that patients will lose 1 to 2 pounds a day. No doubt those are excellent results, but that dosen't sound too healthy. The facts prove me wrong again by saying that the weight loss comes directly from adipose fat rather than lean muscles.
And here's the kicker... there's a lack of FDA recommendation, which is why your doctor has not suggested this! It is legal in the United States, but it is recommended that you don't buy hCG from any other countries because it is not safe. This is not an Ebay purchase, be careful with who is your distributor.
Who knows, maybe this could be the revolution to weightloss! But like any other diet, when you stop recieving the shot, your body will not stay the same, requiring you to adopt a healthy life style.
This diet is in my opinion a short time thing, a segway into another diet.
Blogger (Cyndyok) on the Daily Burn talks about his successes on this diet!
Happy eating!
