How does reduction with hCG work and how long has this diet been around?

Weight reduction using hCG has been around for decades since Dr. Simeons discovery in the 1950s that it worked like a key for the body to unlock stored fat. The mechanism is not fully understood, but Dr. Simeons hypothesized that hCG helped to work on the hypothalamus and other parts of the body to reset the metabolism.

Apart from pregnancy it works the same in both men and women in regards to weight loss. Fat is converted to a form of energy that the body can immediately utilize and is therefore taken out of the reservoir of fat that you need to lose to have a good muscle to fat ratio or body mass index. All of this, however, is dependent on a low calorie diet of specific foods. If you eat too many calories or if you eat the wrong types of calories, you will most likely slow down or completely stop this entire process.

What about when I get finished with the program, then what? Will I gain all of the weight back?

Many people are concerned that the hCG program will be like so many others where they lose the same 20 or 30 pounds and then gain them right back. What seems to happen with most diets is that people lose the normal and the structural fat that their body needs instead of the abnormal fat that has been locked away for a rainy day.

Most traditional weight loss programs also work at a much slower rate, allowing the loss of between 2 and 5 pounds per week. This means that someone needing to lose 60 pounds, for example, will have to diet for somewhere between 12-30 weeks to lose the same amount they can lose with hCG in only 8-10 weeks. Most people grow tired of dieting for such a long period to get back to a normal weight so they never really make it to their baseline and to a normal body mass index. All of that remaining fat that they haven't lost keeps them metabolically unstable and they dont ever reach a point where their blood sugar is relatively even throughout the day. The lower blood sugar moments cause cravings and they eventually go back to eating their previous bad diet and gain the weight back.

hCG is very different in that you can expect to lose 1-2 pounds per day or an average of 7-12 pounds in a week by burning the abnormal fat stores. You can arrive at your goal weight and a healthy BMI much quicker, have fewer cravings and therefore maintain your new baseline weight much easier with a healthy maintenance diet that helps balance blood sugar and other important processes in the body. I have had countless patients who have previously followed the path of traditional diets without lasting success and were totally amazed that hCG really worked for them.
