2. What is HCG?

   A: HCG is a hormone that occurs naturally in your body. It is produced in large amounts when women are pregnant. The HCG in a pregnant woman’s body allows the mother to use her own stored fat to help nourish and energize the baby as well as herself. It helps the mother and fetus to get energy immediately when needed. Homeopathic HCG drops work in this manner when coupled with our specified low caloric diet plan, allowing the user’s body to access its own stored fat and use it for energy. HCG occurs naturally in every cell in our body, THIS INCLUDES MEN, but the levels of HCG decrease with age. Taking HCG drops will not produce any symptoms associated with pregnancy; it simply allows your body to use up its stored fat!

3. How do you use HCG?

   A: HCG is a sublingual liquid that you place under your tongue using a dropper. Allow the liquid to sit under your tongue for at least 2 minutes for maximum absorption. There is no mixing or preparing, homeopathic HCG drops are ready to go all the time! HCG drops also do not need to be refrigerated, but they do need to stay out of the heat. If you plan on storing your drops for a long period of time for future use, then putting them in the refrigerator will help keep the potency level high, but again, this is only if they are not going to be used and are going to be stored for long periods of time.

7. Are the injections better than the drops?

   A: Quite simply, No! Users of both the injections and the drops have reported equal weight loss. Injections can cost between $500-$1000, and sometimes require mixing…not to mention the needle! So, save your money, time, and comfort and the get the same results with the much easier drops method!

8. Will being on this diet slow my metabolism down?

   A: If a person were to just simply start eating a very low calorie diet the body would naturally start to store fat and your metabolism would slow down. However, when following our 500-calorie diet plan and using the prescribed amount of HCG drops, your body will actually start releasing its stored fat for you to use as energy instead of storing it! Therefore, your metabolism is not slowed down at all because it is using the released energy and you end up not being as hungry.
   TOP

9. What controls the metabolism in my body?

   A: The hypothalamus gland! The hypothalamus gland controls all the metabolic process in your body such as hunger, thirst, fatigue, and temperature. The HCG diet is designed to “reset” your hypothalamus gland so that it returns back to normal function.

10. How do I keep the weight off after I complete the HCG diet and is it hard?

    A: After completing the diet and dropping your excess pounds, your hypothalamus will be “reset” and your metabolism will be improved from where it started. This will allow you to have more control over such feelings as hunger! Now that you have lost your weight, this is a good time to begin a new healthier lifestyle. This does not mean you can’t eat anything good…you simply need to eat moderately and mix in some light cardio throughout your week. With your new metabolism and healthier lifestyle, you will be able to keep the weight off and be happier than ever!

11. Where are HCG drops made?

    A: Right here in the USA!

12. What kind of food can I eat while on the HCG diet?

    A: You will be eating certain lean meats as well as fruits and vegetables…the full approved list of foods will be available to you upon purchase in your Diet Toolkit or you can find them in Dr. Simeon’s original manuscript.
    TOP

13. Are there other supplements that I need to take while on the HCG diet?

    A: It is recommended that you take Vitamin B-12 and Potassium while on the diet. These two supplements will help your body maintain its energy levels. You can also take a multi-vitamin as long as it does NOT contain any fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, and E.
    TOP

14. What about drinking water on the diet?

    A: It is recommended that you do not drink tap water because of its chlorine content. This can affect your thyroid. Your best option is to drink water that has not been treated with chlorine, such as spring water as well as many others.
    TOP

15. What can I use as a sweetener?

    A: The only sweetener that is approved for the HCG diet is Stevia. Stay away from all other sweeteners.

    TOP

17. Can I use lotion while on the HCG diet?

    A: The most commonly used lotions should be avoided while on the HCG diet because they contain a lot of fats and oils, which can adversely affect your diet. Try and find a good organic lotion alternative that does not contain these things; you can also use mineral oil, baby oil, and petroleum. Organic Aloe-Vera is also one of your best options.
