HCG Used For Weight Loss Made Easier

HCG used for weight loss took the world by storm soon after the initial research was conducted by British born endocrinologist, Dr. A.T.W. Simeons in 1954, but unfortunately it wasn’t the world most people lived in. HCG used for weight loss used to be available to only the wealthy.

The Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin or HCG hormone was initially delivered through injections in expensive clinics throughout Europe and North America. Now, thanks to developments in the homeopathic extraction process, it has been shown to be just as effective as an oral supplement.

The diet itself is still as strenuous as one would imagine. It is designed to produce one to two pounds of fat loss per day and requires a strict observance of the 500 calories a day diet. Medical science tells us that it gets easier to follow a low calorie diet after the first couple of days, but common sense tells us that it never gets truly easy, so this diet program is designed for those with a serious determination to lose weight.

For some people the need to lose 40 pounds of body fat is more severe than others, but this is not a program for dieters with only five or ten pounds of fat to lose.

It is worth noting that this article uses the word fat rather that weight intentionally. This is an important distinction to make because extremely low calorie dieting alone will force the body to protect fat stores and sacrifice lean tissue.

If you attempt the diet without the HCG supplement, you will not lose fat, but muscle. Unfortunately this occurs often when people try to severely restrict caloric consumption in order to lose weight quickly. They are often successful at losing weight, but unsuccessful in losing fat and the ensuing change in metabolic function creates a perfect storm of conditions once the diet is abandoned to pack on even more pounds than they started with.

The flipside to the HCG diet is that you absolutely must have the 30-40 pounds of body fat to lose. Those who are only slightly overweight cannot use this diet or the previously described scenario will undoubtedly occur.

HCG used for weight loss is nothing new and people have dramatic results very quickly. This is a time tested diet protocol that will help you lose the weight with hunger pains in check. Lose the weight and experience all that you’ve been missing.
