No. It is recommended that you continue taking any medications that you have been taking before the diet.

It is recommended that you refrigerate your HCG upon arrival. They may be kept at room temperature for short periods, during administration. Once you have mixed the HCG the HCG MUST stay refrigerated for the remaining of use time. If vials are left out the medication potency may be affected. It is also important to NOT shake the HCG Vial.

The Maintenance phase is very important. It is not good to finish your program and go right back to a high calorie diet. The intention is to stair step your program by adding additional foods that allow your body to readjust through the introduction process. It is said that it is important to continue with the Maintenance program after the HCG protocol to slowly reset your metabolism. This process will take a minimum of 3 weeks. We will evaluate your calorie needs at your new weight and determine your recommended caloric intake. If you do not do the Maintenance program properly you will be more likely to regain the weight you have tried so hard to lose. It’s not worth it. Take your time for your new life.

It is common for men and women to experience a weight plateau. This can happen on any weight loss program. Stalls or plateaus occur from events such as cheating, menstrual cycle, too much exercise and even under eating. A plateau can also be caused from fluid retention. We have three plateau breakers available to you. They should be used only when needed and after you have spoken to your counselor. They are not meant to be used to correct cheating on the diet or to have fun during the diet.

It is recommended to eat all organic products especially proteins.

If you do not have access to all organic foods, wash all produce thoroughly. When organics are available they are certainly better for you.

It was originally called gorging but it is really the “loading phase”. This is an important part of the HCG Assisted Diet and should be an instruction that is followed. It takes 2-3 days for HCG to fully get into the body and begin to pull fat into the bloodstream for energy use. Utilizing fat for energy, also known as ketosis, is a natural appetite suppressant and is what prevents hunger throughout the HCG program.

The diet can be very uncomfortable if 800 calories is started too early without the HCG present in the body. Loading will help build up fat reserves in the blood; so that once the HCG is fully working in the body and calories are restricted, hunger is better controlled. These 2 days of loading must be done while taking HCG. Foods to focus on while loading include, but are not limited to: avocados, almonds, cheese, butter, sour cream, etc. Limiting foods that are high in carbohydrates and sugar and focusing on high fat foods instead can help achieve all of the loading benefit while preventing heavy carb withdrawals when starting the 750 calories.

Detoxifying the colon is essential in maintaining digestive health. Toxins can build up over time within the body. Similar to many diet detox programs, the colon cleanse is used to detoxify the system and prep the body for the 750 calorie HCG Assisted Diet. The colon cleanse is also suggested to rid the colon of candida yeast. Excess yeast in the colon is believed to inhibit digestion.

Exercising on the HCG diet can actually hinder proper weight loss, slow the metabolism and is not recommended on a low calorie diet. If you exercise while on the HCG diet the body will begin to absorb and lose lean muscle mass. Loss of muscle mass is the last thing you want!

Incorporate physical activity into your day by walking if you like and get 30 minutes or more of moderate cardiovascular activity each day. Adding extra exercise will not aid in weight loss on the HCG diet. You can try adding two ounces of protein to the meal before the workout.  Monitor your weight loss.  If the weight loss declines, stop the workouts until the diet is finished.

That depends on several factors. How much weight do you have to lose and how well you follow the diet are the key factors in determining how much you will lose. Every person is a different story and they have to be evaluated that way. A rule of thumb we use is ¾ of a pound per day. When you hear 2 to 3 pounds per day you should leave wherever you are. At ¾ of a pound per day, that is 30 pounds in 40 days.

Yes, you will but only for the first few days. You are going through dramatic changes. Dramatic results require dramatic changes. This will end and you should get in a zone that is the result of your joy over the weight loss and your body growing accustomed to the change from the VLCD. Your appetite is naturally reduced during the diet.

The first week is the hardest. You have to keep calories low on the HCG Assisted Diet for the body to be reliant on fat stores for energy and thus suppress hunger. Most people have plenty of energy and feel good while on the program. All of our HCG products at HCG Assisted Diet Programs also come compounded with B12 to additionally help increase energy levels.

HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone that is naturally occurring in both men and women. Prior to the use with the HCG Assisted Diet it was used medically in higher dosage’s to treat conditions such as increased testosterone in young males for a condition called Hyper Gonadism and infertility in women.

HCG was found to possess a unique ability that allows the body to mobilize fat and make it available for energy use. During pregnancy the primary purpose of HCG is to insure that the fetus receives uninterrupted nourishment from the adipose fat of the mother when needed.

For weight loss, 200 IU daily is injected and combined with a VLCD (very low calorie diet). The HCG then assists the body’s need for nourishment to seek the necessary calorie/energy from the adipose fat. Without the HCG, being on the same VLCD, you will lose structural fat and muscle instead of adipose fat. The adipose fat is the unsightly fat that has been hard to lose.

The key features described above work the same in weight loss programs. Namely, HCG releases lipids and fatty acids from fat cells. The nutrients enter the bloodstream and are utilized by the body (not a baby in this case) as food. The body burns the nutrients because it is on a diet. The result is loss of stubborn fat and weight.

In the state of natural pregnancy, the rapidly dividing embryo and fetus are continuously growing. It is perhaps the most rapid phase of cellular division known. The fetus is in high metabolic need of nutrients; it cannot wait until the next time Momma decides to eat. The placenta provides its own secret answer: HCG.

The HCG hormone circulates and liberates lipids and fatty acids from locked-away stores of adipose (fat) cells, thereby producing a steady stream of nutrients to the fetus, which rapidly becomes a baby. As this baby grows, more nutrients are needed. HCG production levels continue to rise to well over 1 million IUs per day. The hormone also appears to preserve muscle (muscle-sparing) in the mother, and evens-out her appetite.

It is absolutely safe for men, with no known adverse events in adult men. Men will not be “feminized; nor will women be masculinized.

It is a human hormone. It is called “chorionic” because it is found in the placenta (“Chorion” means placenta). It is called Gonadotropin because one of its first scientifically observed functions was to induce puberty in boys with undescended testicles.

There is no such thing as the HCG Diet that is approved by the FDA. Why? The HCG program is really a diet that is assisted by the addition of HCG into the diet regimen. The real name is “The HCG Assisted Diet”. We do the “HCG Assisted Diet”. By either name it is the same but when you hear HCG Assisted Diet, you will be working with understanding and complete compliance. As a note, the discussion of HCG Homeopathic drops can end right here. HCG Homeopathic Drops are a total phony and are banned by the FDA. Don’t waste your money.
