The Dead-End Cycle of Dieting:


Lose up to forty pounds in six weeks!

Although not an easy diet, if you’re fully committed to this simple, yet structured medical weight loss clinic based program, you will lose belly fat, and get a flat belly in a very short period of time.

This diet involves using a natural hormone called hCG, or human chorionic gonadotropin, to assist weight loss. It is the hormone that increases significantly during pregnancy, and helps to support the growing baby in its early stages. One of the functions of this hormone is to stimulate the body to mobilize and burn extra fat cells for energy. In the weight loss program, a very small amount is used (compared to the surge in pregnancy) to stimulate the body to burn fat cells while the body is on a very low calorie diet (VLCD). Normally on a VLCD, the body goes into “starvation mode,” and in that mode our body stores fat. This is a protective mechanism by our bodies to prevent death during periods of starvation. When using hCG in conjunction with a VLCD for a short period of time, you stimulate your body to burn excess fat cells while on the low calorie diet. So, you are in fact losing the fat you want to lose instead of storing it.

The Dead-End Cycle of Dieting:


Most people who have dieted have tried many different programs with no successful results. Most diets deal with reducing calories, and this causes the patient to spiral downward into the pit of obesity. When an overweight/obese patient tries to reduce calories to lose weight, they will first burn their normal reserve fat cells. Once these are all used up, the body will move on to burning the structural fat cells (both of these types of fat are necessary, and are not the kind of fat that leads to obesity). The last fat cell on the list to be utilized is the abnormal fat, or the fat that causes people to be overweight. By the time the patient gets to this point they feel hungry, fatigued, and generally give up on the diet. This type of dieting causes patients to feel exhausted, to lose fat in the wrong places (from face leading to sagging skin versus belly, hips or thighs). It also depletes them of nutrients, which leads to further complications. This is where the hCG diet comes in and is set apart from other diets. Yes, the calories are restricted, but when this is done in combination with using the hormone hCG, the body is able to successfully burn fat. Not only is the body now burning fat, but also it is burning the abnormal fat (such as thighs, butt, chin, and belly fat), so people are able to lose it in the areas that they are seeking, such as belly and thighs.
