HCG diet: eating a rediculously low amount of calories plus a therapeutic dose of hcg, typically under the care of a diet doctor of independently through an online store.
What I've heard:
1. Its not the HCG that causes the weight loss, its the starvation from the intense caloric restriction. I can buy that.
2. The HCG helps with antiaging and skin turgor while the body is shrinking...not sure if this is true, but it would be nice to believe the loosening skin is somehow being tightened and shrunk by the hcg..
3. hcg "drops" I've seen a few variations. One variation seemed to be a vitamin supplement, while the other leads you to believe it will help you lose weight. I've been told its totally debunked and although it doesn't work, the ingredients make it so its just as prescription as the true hcg.
4. I've heard arizona is the one state that has the most strict regulations for hcg, meaning you could get into trouble for possessing, selling, etc. If you're in that state, you may want to know this.
