How Does HCG Diet Cause Weight Loss? What is HCG? HCG is an acronym for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, a hormone synthesized and secreted by the placenta of a pregnant woman. It is detected early in conception (approximately 5 days) and it is the most reliable sign of pregnancy. During pregnancy, the mother needs to store enough nutrients to support the baby’s growth. This leads to weight gain observed in pregnant women. HCG ensures mobilization of these nutrients from the mother to the baby. Many times and in many women, the weight gained during pregnancy persists and it becomes a major problem. It’s the effect of HCG on nutrient mobilization that has been cultivated in weight loss programs. How does HCG Diet mediate weight loss? During pregnancy, the food is stored in terms of fat in the maternal belly, the hips and the buttocks. HCG mediates the transport of this fat across the placenta to the developing baby. The subcutaneous fat (that is fat under the skin is not affected) ensuring the quality of the skin is not interfered with. If the mother’s nutritional stores are not adequate, the satiety center of the brain is activated and the response in increased appetite and craving for certain kinds of foods to meet the baby’s nutritional demand. The effects of HCG are not limited to the pregnant woman. In women and men desiring to lose weight, the hormone has the same effects making it useful as a weight reduction tool. Many preparations, both injection and oral have been approved for use in weight loss programs. HCG Diet program involves the following steps; Step 1: Building up of fat stores The initial step in the HCG Diet is to build your fat stores by unrestricted intake of food for the first two days. A HCG under-the-tongue drops or injection is initiated. Your brain detects the presence of HCG and the fat you accrued from the diet ensures that it is distributed to the areas of the body where there is fat deposit. Step 2: Dietary restrictions In the second step of the HCG Diet a strict diet of a 500-calorie diet consisting of vegetables, fruits and two meals of up to 3.5 oz. is followed for between 23 and 40 days. You still continue with the HCG as in the first step. In this step you will lose an average of 1-2 pounds. You will have to repeat this until you get your desired weight. Step 3: Maintenance diet In the third step you need to maintain your desired weight you realized in the second step. You do this by adopting a new lifestyle on a recommended diet but you have to continue with the 500- calorie diet for 2 days to clear the HCG off your system. If you do not know what you to eat you can contact your dietitian or nutritionist for advice. You do not have to starve, however; you can eat as much as you please only ensuring that eliminate sugars and starch from your diet. Restrict on the amount fatty foods you take. Try to avoid animal fat but major on vegetable fat. For more information visit www.officialhcgdietplan.com
