Grasping The Actual Truth About The HCG Diet

By Supreet Y Sandhu


Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is now employed for weight loss treatment, known as the hCG diet. Also referred to as the hormone of pregnancy, this solution has been used for dieting since the middle of the twentieth century. Still, it has resurged in recent years. Unlike other similar regimes, the positive truth about the hCG diet lies in its overall effectiveness.

Although there are many claims about its effectiveness in this realm, the FDA does not approve of it being used for weight loss. It was created as a way to treat infertile women. The FTC has placed tough regulations on marketing for the drug. Likewise, physicians cannot advertise this drug for weight loss. Still, it is widely accessible for this use.

Most of the controversy associated with this drug used for losing weight comes from the heavy restrictions required on calories, as well as the potentially negative side effects. There has been so much hype and obsession in American society over quick weight-loss programs. This has added fuel to the flames and burned the potential of hCG becoming a tool used for healthy management of weight.

In the 1950s, Doctor Albert T W Simeons shared research on how effective hCG was was a weight-loss supplement when paired with a low-calorie intake. The obesity researcher did not get much attention for this information and by the 1960s, it was irrelevant. The doctor believed that hCG is able to reset the hypothalamus in the brain and change how the body burns its fat.

In the research he performed, he noted that there are three types of fat in the body: structural, abnormal and reserve. Reserve is that which is used as nutritional income and fuels the muscles, and regulates body temperature. Structural is what fills the gaps and offers protection to organs and bones. Abnormal kind is meant to be the reserves but gets trapped. Simeons thought that the hCG was capable of unlocking the ability of the body to burn the trapped fat.

Dieters following this regime are encouraged to take the supplement with a diet of 500 calories. At this stage, they would not feel hunger pains because the body is living on the calories from the fat that is trapped. It is recommended that this stage only be done for 21 to 40 days.

This can be a diet that is successful and healthy. However, it starts with making the correct steps and having professional aid from a physician. People should be screened and monitored at the beginning of the process and throughout. It is especially important for the doctor to regulate in the initial stages and when individuals transition back to their normal activities and eating habits they must do so gradually. The diet does not teach one good eating habits so behavioral changes must be made to guarantee that the weight is not gained back.

People who want to do this technique can get positive results. In addition to looking better, they will also feel better and reduce ailments that come with being overweight: high C-reactive protein, cholesterol, blood pressure and blood glucose. The positive truth about the hCG diet centers around this: it benefits people who remain dedicated and work closely with a trained physician through the process.
