Is HCG Right For Me?

Anyone who is eager to and optimistic about taking action to lose weight and experience their best possible health is a great candidate for embarking on their HCG weight loss journey. Aside from the obvious general benefits, men and women can experience other advantages of the health plan.

HCG Programs for Women

As the HCG diet plan involves hormone supplementation, women must align the start date of the diet with their menstrual cycles to avoid any adverse hormonal imbalances that can occur. Women should also avoid cosmetic creams that may contain fatty oils or anti-inflammatory ingredients when following an HCG diet plan as they can be absorbed into the skin and affect the body’s ability to regulate fat intake and storage.

Women diagnosed as clinically obese, or women with a BMI over 20% are usually excellent candidates for the dramatic weight loss results of an HCG diet plan. Many women have achieved their weight loss goals with an HCG diet, and an HCG diet plan offers many benefits that traditional diets do not, such as:

Menstrual Regularity

Irregular menstrual cycles can be caused by excess body fat carrying estrogen, and excessive estrogen levels can interfere with regular menstrual cycles. An overall improvement of the body’s health and wellness can also improve hormonal balance, which has a direct connection with menstrual cycles and regularity in women.

Reduced PMS Symptoms

Reducing the amount of estrogen-retaining body fat can help balance the levels of estrogen and progesterone in a woman’s body. This has been shown to help alleviate symptoms related to PMS including bloating, fatigue and mood swings.

Improved Self Esteem and Body Image

Higher self-esteem can be a result of achieving a weight loss goal and feeling healthier. An improved body image and healthier lifestyle can often result in greatly increased self-esteem and self-confidence.

HCG Programs for Men

Although the human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) hormone is produced in women’s bodies during pregnancy, the primary function of HCG is boosting metabolism. Therefore, the HCG diet plan has been successfully and safely used to treat men suffering from obesity without any sexual side effects feared when injecting a female hormone.

The HCG diet allows men to lose weight without losing lean muscle mass by supplying the body with the fuel it needs from fat stores while observing a low-calorie diet. Men who have been diagnosed as obese or overweight, or men with a body mass index of 20% or higher may benefit from an HCG diet plan as it supplies enough nutrients by metabolizing fat stored in the body to keep patients from experiencing muscle atrophy. In fact, men following the HCG diet generally experience:

Improved Workout Performance

By eliminating the estrogen-storing fat deposits the HCG diet can increase the production of testosterone in men, which can result in greater energy, stamina and muscle growth. Therefore, men can achieve longer and more productive workouts, burning more calories while building more muscle than ever before.

Increased Sexual Function & Libido

Increased testosterone levels and the loss of excess body fat can have both physical and mental effects on men. Improved self-confidence, more energy and a new body image can help many men regain interest in sexual activity, as well as improve sexual performance and energy. Higher testosterone levels and decreased body fat have also been connected to alleviating sexual conditions such as erectile dysfunction in men.

Retained Muscle Integrity

Another benefit of losing weight with an HCG diet plan is the preservation of muscle integrity while observing such a low-calorie diet. Most men are able to lose fat without the fears of losing muscle mass and strength that are commonly associated with more traditional diet plans that do not include HCG supplementation.

Improved Metabolic Performance

Changing eating habits is a big part of a successful diet, most patients on an HCG diet plan are able to implement better food choices even after the diet is over in an effort to preserve the weight loss results achieved. This new clean diet, coupled with the lasting effects HCG can have on the metabolism often result in a totally reset metabolism, improving energy levels, digestion and many other bodily functions.

How Does It Work?

The HCG Diet allows men and women to use a hormone that women produce naturally during pregnancy, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, to eat away at fat stores, while following a low-calorie diet of around 500 calories per day. Unlike many other diets, the HCG Diet is able to unlock unwanted fat deposits to be used as energy, allowing you to have energy and feel full while on the diet. The body has different types of fat, and while some fats are necessary for sustaining health, others can be stored and difficult to lose. The HCG Diet allows these fat stores to be tapped into.

The HCG releases 1500-4000 calories in fat per day into the bloodstream, which is the reason why a 500-calorie diet does not make dieters tired and hungry. Without the HCG releasing fat and calories into the bloodstream, patients would be miserable with hunger, mood fluctuations and nutritional deficiencies. {Area} HCG Specialists at {Name} can help patients tailor diets to suit specific needs and create meal plans that work for the individual.

Most diets begin weight loss by draining water weight and eating away at muscle, and these diets do not have a strong effect on visceral fat that is stored in various parts of the body such as the shoulders, upper arms, hips, thighs and buttocks. The HCG Diet, however, tends to target areas that have the largest fat stores, and for this reason, people have a much leaner appearance after finishing the HCG Diet Protocol.

The HCG diet allows the body to tap into problem areas, and in overweight patients, these deposits are not usually accessible to the body. Despite how much people exercise and cut calories, they may still have difficulty losing weight in areas with a high fat content. The HCG hormone coupled with a very low-calorie diet allows these abnormal fat deposits to be tapped into, released into the bloodstream, and used for energy.

The HCG hormone also works with the hypothalamus and metabolism, and most people end up with a more efficient metabolism by the end of the HCG Diet. The HCG Diet can also improve health by helping people to implement healthier food choices than usual. These healthier foods can lead to detoxifying the hypothalamus, enabling it to clear itself of the chemical build-up that could be preventing weight loss, and reestablishing the healthy functioning of the hypothalamus.
