Does hCG Work?

hCG works. Don’t let anyone try and tell you otherwise. The hCG diet only fails when you fail, that is, you cheat and stray from the plan.

Just take a quick look around the website, view visitor testimonials or check out the before and after photos. You can’t really argue with photographic evidence and great visitor testimonials.

“I read the Simeons book online and ordered hCG from your site, here I am 30 lb lighter and low body fat” – Sherry

The hCG diet as it is called works by combining a very low calorie diet (VLCD) with the hCG treatment, whilst it is true that you can lose weight on a VLCD alone – it is not safe to do so. Speaking from experience myself, I have done a VLCD many years ago when I was around 19 years of age – I managed to lose a lot of weight, but my muscle completely atrophied (this means, it became non-existant) and I have joint problems to this day from this weight loss. Had I known about the hCG protocol back then, I would have done it earlier and not had to rebuild from the ground up.

The benefit of the hCG treatment is that it prevents muscle from atrophying, it will stop cramps and pains and has no real side effects at all. hCG also acts as an appetite suppressant, it stops you from craving sweets, starch and junk food. I now work out regularly and have used the hCG diet treatment to strip down fat and get my body fat to spectacular levels whereby my abdominal muscles are greatly defined, without hCG I would lose more muscle than fat – what a waste of all that hard work that would be.

There have been numerous studies done to assess the validity of hCG claims, some are FDA sponsored which skew the accuracy of the results. The FDA acts in the best interest of pharmaceutical companies, until these companies are actively in the hCG market and charging you extraordinary markup for the product, they aren’t going to recommend it. Unfortunately there is too much money to be made on other weight loss treatments, surgery and the likes.

“I just finished my first 30 day cycle and lost 24lbs of fat, size 10+ to a loose 6!” – Samantha K.

However in independent studies it has been shown that hCG does drive weight loss.

In all honesty, the best way to confirm that the hCG works is the testimonials and before and after photos, or user journals. Plenty of people are doing the hCG diet these days and all that follow the plan are having great success.

The fact of the matter is, no product or protocol that has lasted decades is wrong. Fad diets and placebo products come and go – but the protocol developed by Simeons has been around since 1954 and people have been losing weight this way ever since.

On the hCG diet people have been known to lose 1lbs (that’s around half a kilogram for you Europeans!) per day. This is pretty extraordinary, following traditional diet and exercise plans will get you “safely” 2lbs per week…. imagine 7lbs in a week instead? You don’t have to imagine, just do it!

One last thing before you start hCG – please keep me updated, with your consent, I would love to publish your success story on the testimonials page or the before and after photos.
