HCG is a hormone naturally produced by out pituitary glands in very low quantities except in pregnant women. It is a hormone which chemically helps the body perform many natural functions and especially helps in natural secretion of testosterone in males and progesterone in females. It also helps in effectively cutting weight without the loss of lean muscle tissue which makes it the holy grail of all weight loss methods. An HCG diet with very low dosages of artificially generated versions of this hormone can effectively help cut excess weight and adipose tissue without losing any health! Well researched and documented, it is now an international ‘wonder drug’.
If you’re thinking that you’ll keep stuffing donuts and Coke and take your HCG doses and magically lose weight; well – you couldn’t be further off! The clue to an HCG diet is the word ‘diet’. For a sedentary non – working man or woman, the diet needs to be cut down to as low as 500 to 700 calories a day. This is of course very little, and needs to be high protein, very low carbohydrate diet plan. Foods like white meats (pork, chicken, fish, or low fat milk products) are mandatory. Low carbohydrate intake forbids rice and white flour products, but whole grains and multi – grain breads and cereals in low quantities are fine. Sugars are an absolute ‘NO’; but fruits and most vegetables are fine. As for your Cokes and burgers, well, it’s a no sugar, no oil diet to follow – so figure it out!
Once into the HCG diet plan, you’ll lose weight drastically. However, remember that it is a prescribed medication created by scientists and doctors; and it’s more than just a diet. It’s a lifestyle to follow. Exercise will still remain a major part of your lifestyle within such a diet and in accordance to your age. If you’re in your teens and facing obesity, you need to use HCG and exercise like a horse (for your age) to get proper results. If you’re among the seniors, maintain those morning and evening brisk walks that keeps the muscles working and metabolism acting to get fit and live active. The results will only be magical if you combine exercise with the power of the HCG diet plan. Living a holistic lifestyle and making fitness your fiend is a lifetime asset; something you have to gift yourself. The drops will only help as a catalyst to your efforts!
