On a recent episode of Celebrity physician Dr. Mehmet Oz's talk show, Dr. Oz said that he believes the HCG diet merits further investigation. While he admits that theres no official proof this diet works, his guests success stories make him think theres definitely something worth checking out about the HCG diet.

HCG is an acronym for the hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, which is found in both men and women, though pregnant women have the highest levels of HCG in their bodies. The HCG hormone can be made synthetically or extracted from a pregnant woman's urine and then processed for use by other humans. Advocates of the HCG diet believe that, by adhering to the HCG diet plan and taking daily injections of HCG, participants can successfully reach their targeted weight. They say that dieters following the HCG diet should expect to lose somewhere between a half pound and 3 pounds of fat each day on the low-calorie, high-fiber plan.

The use of HCG in the treatment of obesity was first discovered by the late British Physician, Dr. A. T. W. Simeons in 1954, while practicing in Rome, Italy. Simeons noticed several important factors including the lack of symptoms one would expect from a patient on a very low calorie diet, expressly, his patients had no headaches, hunger pains, weakness, or irritability as long as the low calorie diet was combined with HCG.

Most HCG Weight-loss participants see a loss in girth (inches) before they see any substantive drop in the scales. When properly supervised, the result is rapid weight loss and improved body shape during and after treatment. Reshaping of body contour is quickly noticeable in those patients who struggle with fat located in buttocks and hips area. As the HCG metabolizes stored body fat, about 2000 calories are released into the bloodstream, thus allowing for a low calorie per day diet without experiencing fatigue, weakness or hunger.

Day One & Two:

Day three: Start 500 calorie diet. Stick to specific times and foods listed in the 500 CALORIE DIET section. Generally patients lose 3-4 lbs. Some people experience headache, slight nausea or dizziness. If you do, you NEED to drink more fluids!! Patients are generally NOT hungry.

In the rare event you experience tremendous hunger try having 2 oz. of extra protein.

Day four: 2-3 lbs of weight loss can be expected but is not always the case. Most people experience some degree of detox from carbohydrates & sugar. This is usually indicated by slight headache or drowsiness.

Detoxification from chemicals. FAT stores are high in pollutants and may abruptly release chemicals into your system during the first week of the diet. Drink LOTS OF FLUIDS to avoid feeling nauseous if you work with or have been exposed to an abundance of chemicals in past 5 years. SEE DETOXIFICATION SECTION

Day 5: Minor complaints diminish while the weight continues to drop at an average rate of 1-2 lbs per day.

It is important to remember to call us, no matter what, if you are not losing one pound per day.

HUNGERThe only time you should be excessively hungry where you find that you cannot stick to diet is:

CALL THE OFFICE FOR GUIDANCE IF EXPERIENCING SEVERE HUNGER

A PLATEAUA plateau lasts 4-6 days and frequently occurs during the second half of a full (40 day) course, particularly in patients that have been doing well and whose overall average of nearly a pound per effective injection (injection 3 and on) has been maintained. Those who are losing more than the average, all have a plateau sooner or later. A plateau always corrects itself, but many patients who have become accustomed to a regular daily loss get unnecessarily worried. A plateau does not mean that you are no longer responding normally to treatment.

For such cases we consider it permissible to break up the plateau. This can be done with an apple day. An apple day begins at 11am and continues until just before 9pm. The patients are instructed to eat six large apples whenever they feel the desire, generally one every three to four hours. During an apple-day no other food or liquids except plain water are allowed and of water they may only drink just enough to quench an uncomfortable thirst if eating an apple still leaves them thirsty. The apple-day produces a gratifying loss of weight on the following day, chiefly due to the elimination of water and loosening of impacted stool. This water is not regained when the patients resume their normal 500-calorie diet at lunch, and on the following days they continue to lose weight satisfactorily.

If you stop losing weight dont assume you are having a plateau call office to discuss with staff.

CONSTIPATIONIf you are not losing a pound a day, the most common cause is constipation. Keep hydrated to avoid constipation. An excess of water keeps the feces soft, and that is very important in the obese, who commonly suffer from constipation and spastic colon.

While under treatment we rarely permit the use of any kind of laxative except bulk forming fiber which is not a typical laxative as it is not chemically altering your retention of water. It is normal to have a reduction in the amount of bowel movements as compared to before, but you SHOULD be having at least one bowel movement daily. If not, this could account for a lack of weight loss. Sugar free Metamucil 20 minutes before lunch and dinner or two back-to-back colonics can be helpful.

If you have a long history of constipation (not having at least one bowel movement per day) we suggest that you eliminate ALL MILK products (yogurt, ice cream, and especially cheese). To rebuild an atrophied colon it may take a year of a dairy free diet and a great increase in fiber. To hasten results try doing a course of colonics (ten sessions $600).

COSMETICSWhen no dietary error is found, we look at cosmetics. Most find it hard to believe that fats, oils, creams and ointments applied to the skin are absorbed and can interfere with the weight reduction by HCG, just as if it had been eaten. This incredible sensitivity to even such very minor increases in nutritional intake is a peculiar feature of the HCG method. For instance, its been found that persons who habitually handle organic fats, such as workers in beauty parlors, masseurs, butchers, etc. never show what is considered a satisfactory loss of weight unless they can avoid fat coming into contact with their skin. We encourage patients to continue using cosmetics as they normally would but to consider elimination if they stop losing a pound a day.

SUPPLEMENTS (add complete vitamin, mineral & amino acid supplement package see staff for details).In order for the thousands of process and systems to work optimally in your body you need to provide the fuel necessary to keep things going. The essentials of maintaining optimum nutrition:

We urge our patients to always take supplements, on the diet or off the diet. If your fat stores lack the appropriate nutrients you may not lose weight as quickly as you would like. When you are doing everything appropriately and are losing weight too slowly, please consider taking supplements. Consult our staff for recommendations.

DETOXIFICATION Additionally, in rare instances, some people are severely polluted with chemicals from cosmetics and the environment; pesticides from fruit and vegetables; as well as hormones and antibiotics from poultry, pork and beef.

Wash ALL fruit & vegetables thoroughly before consuming it & Buy FREE RANGE & ORGANICALLY FED poultry, pork & beef. Avoid fish known to be high in mercury or farm raised fish. Farm-raised salmon live in tight, densely populated quarters and eat fish pellets. Farmers add a chemical dye to artificially color the fish and make it more marketable. Farm-raised fish also may contain polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, which are highly toxic industrial compounds. These toxins are "probable human carcinogens," according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Pollutants for the most part reside in fat stores, hence a primary reasons overweight people are more prone to disease. It is important to wash these toxins from your body. If you feel nauseous and experience any vomiting you might be releasing toxins from your fat stores. If this is the case, you must drink an excessive amount of fluid. Dont stop the diet. These toxins need to be removed from your body.

Many people with HIGH LEAD levels have SLOW metabolisms. If you have a history of hypothyroid; irregular menstrual cycles; unexplained: high triglycerides, cholesterol or blood pressure; cancer; or cardiac arrhythmias, you may have high levels of toxic heavy metals. Once metals are removed from your system many patients no longer need the medications they have grown dependent on and many find that future attempts to lose weight are easier.

Few physicians (1 in 1000) understand how to accurately test for heavy metals. A blood test from QUEST will not give you accurate results. Please consult staff for some literature on Chelation and an explanation of how to be tested if you believe that you have toxic heavy metals in your system.

END OF DIETAfter your last shotStay on 500 CALORIE DIET for 3 days (as best as you can). As HCG weans from your system.

After 3 days switch to a typical ATKINS type diet. NO SUGAR & NO CARBS. It is identical to HCG 500 CALORIE DIET food selections except you can have FAT and OILS. And you can increase quantities. Typical protein quantities are 150-175 grams.

Stay on this diet for 21 days to lock in weight loss and gradually add carbs & sugars. If you discover you are gaining weight, immediately eliminate carbs & sugars until your weight returns to where it was the day of your last shot.

It is important to start exercise program of your choice on day 1 of the ATKINS type diet. You will notice it is much easier to exercise and in doing so will help you lose even more weight. If additional weight loss is desired, you may restart the HCG DIET 4 weeks after your last shot. Future attempts at the HCG DIET sometimes are more effective and sometimes less effective.
