The hCG diet is predicated upon the body's ability to tolerate a low calorie diet, while drawing upon stored nutrients form adipose fat tissues. This is accomplished specifically with the intervention of the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone, otherwise known as hCG . At the same time, hCG acts within the body chemistry to help alleviate the side effects low caloric intake, such as headache, general weakness, malaise, irritability, dizziness, and hunger pains.

However, prior to treatment one should consult with your physician or a doctor that specializes in treating dieting patients. The practitioner will perform a general physical in order to assess your overall physical health as well as drawing blood samples to determine you baseline for body chemistry. This physician will review your current conditions and medications, and will be closely monitoring that situation as your diet progresses. Women who are pregnant are not allowed to take the hCG injections.

The original protocol established by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, calls for an intake of only 500 calories a day. The average man or woman needs somewhere between 1500 to 2000 calories a day. The body can draw as much as it needs from this source, absorbing as much as 2000 calories daily. Thereby, keeping the body from stripping the muscles, and bones of needed vitamins and minerals.

The daily intake of 500 calories goes right to work supplying energy to muscles and bones; while your body draws the bulk of its calories from stored fat cells, and the impending result is rapid and significant weight loss. The reports are, average weight loss of 1 to 3 pounds daily, depending upon the patient's condition, activity level, and how much weight they have to lose.

The hCG injections cannot be purchased without a Dr.'s prescription. In fact, Doctor prescribed hCG is the only way that it can be purchased in the States. The food and drug administration has denied the use of hCG in any other form unless it is prescribed by a doctor.

Bottled drops, tablets, even nasal sprays are declared homeopathic supplements, and they have no amount of hCG in them at all. If you are considering drops, tabs, creams, or any of these alternatives, be sure to ask directly the amount of hCG they contain.

The physician will prescribe the injections, however the patient will deliver the daily dose in the same way that diabetics give themselves insulin. In fact, the needle is the same short, thin needle, which is administered just below the top layer of skin, and is relatively painless. The injections are given in the morning, once a day for twenty-three days. In the case of sever obesity; there can be a 6-week break then another series of injections for continued weight loss.

Going through the diet, it is normal for the patient to experience mild hunger for the first few days, but this will pass as your body makes adjustments and starts drawing nutrients from the stored fat cells. This can also be due in part because your hypothalamus, a part of our brain that regulates body chemistry, is adjusting the metabolic rate, as well as the amount of calories passing through your bloodstream from the release of fat cells. It is commonly reported that patients feel as though they are stuffing themselves even to reach their 500-calorie limit.

Patients who have gone through the experience have recognized it as a time period during which they developed new attitudes about food and their overall health. A medically supervised hCG diet is an excellent opportunity for you to change your health and your outlook.
