You’re wasting your time.

The hcg diet is a scam because HCG does nothing for fat loss. It was a scam from the get go and doesn’t work any more than the other junk on the market like acai or green tea. Even if you manage to lose some weight from the diet alone you will only gain rebound fat because you’ve done nothing to change your eating habits. That will lead to yo-yo’ing until you finally learn that diets don’t work and the only way to lose fat and keep it gone is to make a lifetime commitment to proper eating habits. After all, staying slim only gets more difficult with age. So, you may as well make that commitment now and establish proper eating habits instead of trying an easy way that doesn’t work.

Check the following excerpts from the US National Institute of Health…the place where the doctors get their information regarding health research. And, if you can’t bring yourself to believe the science, visit your physician and find out for yourself. You’ll be wise to ignore the random strangers of unknown credibility with no references or citations who are simply credulous believers incapable of recognizing their own placebo effect.

Here’s what the experts have to say.

“In recent publications describing mostly well-documented double-blind studies authors largely reject hCG administration in dieting. Supporters of the hCG diet must prove the efficacy of this method in controlled studies according to the German Drug Law. Until then the opinion of the German steroid toxicology panel is still valid, that hCG is ineffective in dieting and should not be used.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3609673

“Treatment of obesity with human chorionic gonadotrophin was shown to be of no better value than saline in a double-blind crossover study of weight reduction in obese subjects. There was also no significant difference in mood, hunger, or missed injections, and no apparent difference in adherence to diet when the two agents were compared. In contrast, a significant difference was found in the ability of subjects to lose weight in the first four weeks of the study in contrast with the second four weeks, no matter which agent was used. Thus, the initiation of a new therapeutic program, even using an inert agent, has a temporary benefit–a manifestation both of placebo effect and the Hawthorne effect.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/321723

“We conclude that there is no rationale for the use of HCG injections in the treatment of obesity.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2405506

“Supporters of the hCG diet must prove the efficacy of this method in controlled studies according to the German Drug Law. Until then the opinion of the German steroid toxicology panel is still valid, that hCG is ineffective in dieting and should not be used”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3609673

“The success of the diet was based on motivation and good information, rather than on the hCG administration.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12281505

“Subjects receiving HCG injections showed no advantages over those on placebo in respect of any of the variables recorded. Furthermore, weight loss on our diet was similar to that on severely restricted intake. We conclude that there is no rationale for the use of HCG injections in the treatment of obesity.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12281505

“The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers to steer clear of these “homeopathic” human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) weight-loss products. They are sold in the form of oral drops, pellets and sprays and can be found online and in some retail stores.”
Ref: http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm281333.htm

“You won’t see me promoting quick fixes or fad diets anytime soon. But every once in awhile something comes along that seems so dangerous I have to call it out. That’s why I’m going to help reveal the truth behind the HCG diet.”
Ref: http://www.dietsinreview.com/diet_column/07/hcg-diet-look-elsewhere-for-weight-loss/

“Human chorionic gonadotropin is of no value in the management of obesity.”
Ref: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1875285/

You can find more information by going to USA.gov and searching for “HCG diet.

Good luck and good health!!

Has anyone taken the supplement Chromium Picolinate for weight loss?

Question by Malasha: Has anyone taken the supplement Chromium Picolinate for weight loss?
Have you taken the vitamin supplement Chromium Picolinate over the counter for weight loss? If so did it work? I have been doing research comparing diet pills and came across it. The stuff I have seen is that it is a normal chromium supplement for those with a defenciency but it also is used to for weight loss with little or no side effects. I am wondering though if what they say is true.

Best answer:

Answer by Gourdman
There was some buzz about Chromium Picolinate about 15 years ago; to my knowledge, no peer reviewed studies have convincingly linked it to weight loss. Worse, some of the side effects of Chromium Picolinate can be serious. Save your money and don’t buy chromium supplements.

Buy calcium instead, green tea and white tea, hot peppers, almonds, and high fiber foods like apples and pears, all of which have weight loss benefits, peer-reviewed studies to prove it, and no harmful side effects.

Is there anyone with experience with both prescription AND homeopathic hCG diet drops? What’s the difference?

by Vietnam Plants & The USA. plants

Question by : Is there anyone with experience with both prescription AND homeopathic hCG diet drops? What’s the difference?
I study hCG clinically here in Canada and have found similar results with both. I find that what makes the biggest difference is how often that you take hCG. Whether the hCG is prescription or homeopathic didn’t seem to make a difference.

I also find that the prescription drops yield more weight loss than prescription injections.
What are your findings?

Best answer:

Answer by Lijo Mathews
Homeopathic HCG drops are Sub lingual, are administered orally under your tongue, and should NEVER be injected. HCG drops are to be taken 10 drops at a time, 3 times a day, and under your tongue for at least 2 minutes with the residue then swallowed. The alcohol in our HCG is meant to open the capillaries under your tongue so it can be absorbed directly into your bloodstream.HCG drops are more concentrated then other drops on the market so you only need to take them 3 times a day. If you look for the details then go through

http://hcgbottle.com/

www.weightloss.org/,
www.hcgdiet.com/ are some of the famous homeopathic HCG distributors Which provides all informations through online. Although HCG is primarily found in women, it is a completely natural hormone, and its primary function of burning fat works the same in both men and women.
