Re: What is HCG diet plan
The hCG diet is another diet trend that has caught traction in the American imagination.It was developed by a doctor who believed that the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin, or hCG found in a pregnant woman's body could help overweight men and women lose weight -- and keep that weight off after returning to a normal routine.
HCG is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat infertility in both men and women.
In theory, the hCG hormone is supposed to suppress hunger and trigger your body’s use of fat for fuel.
Most hCG diet plans restrict dieters to only 500 calories per day of mostly organic, unprocessed foods along with the hCG injections or serum drops under the tongue. By following the plan for 45 days straight, you will fix your metabolism, and lose several pounds a day, so the advertisements claim.
This is actually not true. You will lose weight on the hCG diets but the weight loss will be the result of the very low-calorie or starvation-like diet, not the hCG.
So that's one more fad diet that bites the dust-remember, the only safe way to lose weight is to eat a balanced diet and to exercise regularly. There are no short-cuts or miracle diet!!
