HCG Diet
- Thread starter design2host

There is evidence that true HCG will assist with weight loss .. BUT .. beware
There are many HCG Diets floating around out there that use some homeopathic version of HCG which is not the real thing.
HCG is a little expensive, so if a diet plan claims to be giving you HCG injections for $30 then that might signal a possible scam.
Also keep in mind, most of these HCG diets advocate a very reduced calorie diet
Well heck, at the reduced calories they want you to eat on most of these diets a person could lose weight HCG or not.
Probably more advisable to follow a plan of lean protein diet + resistance training + cardio for complete fitness and weight control

Paul is 100% accurate
I don't support any of the 'lose weight fast" miracles that seem to come out every other week.
The Wild West used to have snake oil salesmen,
Today we have TV infomercials which are a high tech version of the same thing.
Somebody is always trying to sell a "quick, easy way to lose weight" which promises results with no changes to a person's lifestyle.
BS
The same thing works today that worked 50 years ago.
Lean Protein Diet & Complex carbs 4-6 times per day
Minimize or eliminate simple refined sugars or other 'empty" carbs
Some kind of muscle stimulating resistance training
Some form of cardio at least 3 times per week
THAT does it 99.9% of the time if followed
No secrets, just sound science and consistency.
Most people with 25+ pounds of fat to lose, usually lose 2-3 lbs per week on average.
Beware the scams and sales pitches.

I agree with the other commenters on this thread. I suspect that HCG is a bit like Garcinia Cambogia. Although Garcinia is proven to aid in weight loss to some extent, it apparently rarely actually works for folks. Never worked for me, anyhow. I think these weight loss supplements are generally more about a mindset change than about anything else.
