HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone present in females, produced by pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy. The substance almost completely controls the women's metabolic functions. In non-pregnant women, research suggests, HCG similarly increases the metabolism and promotes lipolytic (fat-burning) activity.
The use of HCG as a diet aid was first discussed in a report that Dr. A.T.W. Simeons published in 1954. He noted that his patients could drastically reduce their caloric intake along with injections of HCG without experiencing irritability, hunger pains, headaches, or weakness. In addition to losing weight, Dr. Simeon noted that the injections also helped to naturally reshape his patients' bodies. This was because they lost their fat tissue from adipose tissue accumulations. These abnormal fat tissues disappear; the double chin, potbelly and fat around hips and thighs are the first to go.
Most HCG Weight Loss patients see a loss in girth (inches) before they see any drop in the scales. You will lose fat mostly in the waist and stomach. While properly supervised, the result is rapid weight loss and improved body shape during and after treatments. Reshaping of body contour is quickly noticeable.
The program is designed to be administered with .4ml oral HCG sublingual drops, taken twice daily on an empty stomach (for those needing to lose over 15 pounds), and the 7th day for the body to rest. One week prior to starting, and the first two days after starting the sublingual drops, the patient will eat a high-fat diet. From then on, a low-caloric diet will be followed, and drops taken for a maximum of 40 days. Then a period of 6 weeks' rest is necessary and, if the patient is looking for additional weight loss, they may start a new 6-week cycle. For those needing to lose only 15 pounds or less, HCG drops are taken every day of the week with no day of rest for 3 weeks.
