Obesity and the Human Chorionic Gonadatropin Hormone

HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadatropin, a hormone possessing the power to change the metabolic process. This property of the hormone was discovered by Dr. Simeons, an English physician, more than 60 years ago. The doctor observed that that hormone helped pregnant women covert all the foods they eat into useful nutrients that are then transferred to their unborn babies. This is the reason why pregnant women no matter how much they eat do not gain weight except for the added weight of their growing babies.

The ability of the hormone to change body's metabolic rate of the body, to Dr. Simeons is tailored fit for obesity treatment. Thus, he launched what we know today as the HCG weight loss program. This program features a daily ingestion of 125 units of the hormone for 23 days except during menstruation days of women dieters. Also an important component of the program is a diet formulated by the doctor to accomplish several important tasks. The first is to activate the metabolic changing powers of the HCG. Second is to ensure that no additional calories are ingested by dieter that would disrupt the focus of the metabolism on burning stored fats. Third is to detoxify the body of toxic wastes. The work of the hormone and the diet is expected to result in the dieter losing extra pounds at an astounding rate of one to a couple of pounds a day.

As explained it is not possible to choose just one of the components. The HCG is useless without the diet. The latter may work without the hormone but considering that the diet limits calorie consumption to 500 calories a day also for 23 days, it will be very difficult for dieters to overcome the constant hunger fangs that are sure to assail them. With the HCG hormone, however, hungers fangs are effectively controlled. Aside from its power to change the metabolism, it has been proven capable of curbing hunger fangs.
