HCG Weight Loss Protocol Overview
What is HCG and how does it work?
HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone present in both men and women, but which is produced in great amounts in pregnant females. During pregnancy, the substance almost completely controls the woman's metabolic functions.
The most important thing to know about HCG is that it works directly with the hypothalamus gland. The hypothalamus gland actually controls body fat, emotions, develops reproductive organs during puberty, and many more important functions. The problem is that the hypothalamus gland cannot do any of that without HCG. Every person is given their life supply of HCG at birth. No person can create HCG, except women while they are pregnant. Unfortunately, chemicals in processed foods that we eat candida yeast overgrowth remove HCG from your body. So, you need to rid processed foods from your diet to successfully keep HCG in your body long term.
In non-pregnant persons, research suggests HCG similarly increases the metabolism similar to a pregnant female. Thousands of calories in stored fat are released, and are used by the body or expelled. To keep the fat cells from immediately taking in more fat, the very low calorie diet (VLCD) is necessary and personal care products such as lotion, are prohibited.
The HCG weight loss protocol consists of a very low calorie diet (VLCD) accompanied by treatments of HCG, oral or injected. The average HCG dieter experiences rapid weight loss averaging 1 to 3 pounds per day. In addition to loss of unwanted fat, the true benefit of the HCG protocol is its ability to help modify the dieter's relationship with food and eating, resulting in easily maintained, long-term weight loss.
Isn’t a VLCD Dangerous? Won’t I lose muscle?
Yes, normally without HCG a VLCD would be extremely dangerous, causing you to lose muscle mass. However, HCG helps you burn fat and maintain muscle.
We are all born with a reserve of the HCG hormone, which regulates the hypothalamus in the brain. But over time, many of us have that reserve slowly drained by the chemicals in our food, or other detriments of our modern lifestyle. Without HCG in the body, the hypothalamus does not burn excess fat.
HCG triggers the body to burn excess adipose tissue instead of lean muscle tissue. Without it, your body will burn lean muscle mass and structural fat, but will never get to the root cause of your obesity—excess abnormal fat. Once you have that hormonal balance restored in your body, your metabolism is reset and you being burning fat, not muscle tissue.
Program Duration
Patients who need to lose 15 pounds (7 kg) or less require 26 days treatment with 23 daily doses of HCG. The extra three days are needed because all patients must continue the 500 calorie diet for three days after the last injection. This is a very essential part of the treatment, because if they start eating normally as long as there is even a trace of HCG in their body they put on weight alarmingly at the end of the treatment. After three days when all the HCG has been eliminated this does not happen, because the blood is then no longer saturated with food and can thus accommodate an extra influx from the intestines without increasing its volume by retaining water.
When a patient has more than 15 pounds to lose the treatment takes longer but the maximum we give in a single course is 40 servings, nor do we as a rule allow patients to lose more than 34 lbs. at a time. The treatment is stopped when either 34 lbs. have been lost or 40 servings of HCG have been given.
