                                                              hCG Diet Plan

                                                              What is hCG?
                                                              Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone that is produced naturally during pregnancy. In the 1950s A.T.W. Simeons, a British endocrinologist, studied the weight loss effects of hCG on the body and discovered that it seemed to promote the burning of non-essential fat when administered to an individual on a low-calorie diet. Simeons’ hCG diet was later popularized by Kevin Trudeau’s book The Weight Loss Cure “They” Don’t Want You to Know About.

                                                              What is hCG’s role in weight loss?
                                                              Normally, when an individual is on a very low-calorie diet, the body gets additional energy by metabolizing lean tissue (muscle) and structural and essential fat first, leaving the non-essential fat deposits. Dr. Simeons noticed that hCG seemed to reverse the order, encouraging the body to release its non-essential fat reserves.

                                                              The combination of prescription hCG and a low calorie diet helps to reset your hypothalamus, the area of the brain that controls hunger and satiation. ThehCG injections cause your hypothalamus to use your body’s stored fat; so even though you’re only consuming 500 calories each day, your body is operating on thousands of calories each day from the stored fat. This is why you can lose 1 to 2 pounds of fat per day.
