New HCG Diet Scam Marketing Crapola

by

Sometimes calling something an HCG diet scam might seem harsh. However, when marketing hype overshadows a tried and true diet protocol with scare tactics, I feel a need to point it out. Before you take a look at what I mean, keep in mind that this latest hype is not a new HCG diet as claimed, and the products behind it do not contain any HCG whatsoever. Buyer beware.

More Paranoia and Ignorance to Come

And while we are at it, here is an interesting diatribe against the HCG diet that represents the following aspect of human nature: A person will find evidence for whatever he or she already believes. If you believed even half of the nonsense in this post, it would scare you out of your wits about the HCG diet protocol. Of course, that seems to be the idea. Read on, and be amazed by the sound of axes grinding:

The HCG Diet – Philosophy, Execution, Contradiction, and Stupidity …

Side Effects on the HCG Diet

by

Here is a little video that I posted on YouTube. Below is my article on this topic, which has further details on what you can expect in the way of hcg side effects.

HCG vs Protocol

Side effects of HCG may be caused by a reaction to the hormone, a reaction to the very low-calorie diet, a reaction to substances released from metabolized fat, or combinations of all of these. Determining cause and effect is not really possible. However, if the approved medical uses of HCG for treating infertility or low testosterone are any indication, certain side effects of HCG alone may be possible.

Medical Use of HCG vs HCG Diet

Treating infertility with HCG requires doses of 10,000 IU. This is a typical dose of HCG for medical treatments. One drug company that makes Pregnyl (the most common brand name for HCG) lists the following unwanted symptoms of this high dose:

Headache, irritability, restlessness, depression, fatigue, edema, precocious puberty, gynecomastia (i.e., breast enlargement in males).

These are due to the high doses that are used in medical treatment. The question is whether they are also associated with the low doses of HCG that are used for the HCG diet.

Observations of Common Side Effects

The following observations are derived from reports by clients who have gone through the HCG protocol and from my own experience.

FATIGUE: The most common one is fatigue. This occurs almost 100% of the time. It is independent of starting weight or health status. People who work out regularly are less able to keep up their workout intensity. Those who are out of shape and inactive in the first place slow down even further.

IRRITABILITY: The ‘significant others’ of HCG dieters notice this first. It is very common. In my own experience, I even felt more irritable. By the end of the protocol, the quick recovery back to normal, after being more irritable for a month or more, was like going from night to day.

HEADACHE: At least 10 percent of the HCG dieters report headaches for the first few days of the protocol. Headaches stop after the body’s initial water loss during this period, when sufficient water intake begins to rehydrate the body. Water intake is the key to reversing this brief period of accelerated dehydration.

REDUCED NEED FOR SLEEP: Many dieters report that they sleep less during the protocol. This is a well-recognized side effect of the HCG diet. People do not feel as though they are sleep deprived. They just seem to need less sleep.

CONSTIPATION: Dieters who are prone to constipation notice that it is more pronounced on the protocol. It is crucial to treat this symptom immediately so that passage of waste, as well as daily weight loss, proceeds normally every day. Constipation will otherwise slow down or stop weight loss completely.

MINOR OCCURRENCES: Dozens of side effects that have been reported to be associated with the HCG diet are much more difficult to validate. Most seem to be associated with bad health. Blogs and forums are rife with reports of these kinds of symptoms. However, the only other side effects that are common enough to be expected are the beneficial ones, as mentioned below.

Beneficial Side Effects

Dr. A.T.W. Simeons already reported these observations in 1954. The main ones of greatest impact to modern users of the protocol are: 1) normalizing blood sugar metabolism; 2) lowering cholesterol; and, 3) lowering blood pressure.

Dr. Simeons’ explanations of these side effects are detailed in his book, Pounds and Inches. They are to be expected for everyone who undertakes the protocol. Besides fat loss, these are most crucial results from the protocol. They help slow down and even reverse hypoglycemia, diabetes, and heart disease.

All the best in fat loss,

by

For dieters seeking HCG for sale, the task may seem cumbersome. There are certain measures one must take when looking for HCG for sale. Many dieters hear about the powerful effects of HCG and find themselves longing for such a powerful dieting aid. Such dieters quickly discover that getting their hands on HCG is not as easy as it may first sound. There may indeed be some loopholes and obstacles that dieters face and there are sometimes legal issues involved that actually affect the accessibility of HCG. Let’s examine some of the measures below which can help finding HCG a bit easier. First of all, when looking to buy HCG products, it is imperative that you deal with a reputable HCG provider or clinic whenever ordering such products. There are plenty of distributors out there that offer HCG for sale, but that doesn’t mean they are necessarily qualified or legally able to do so. When seeking HCG for sale, you should research the seller that you’d like to buy from and make sure that the seller is fully qualified to do so. One who are interested in getting HCG for sale need to be concerned with the legality of the purchase as well. It is not necessarily legal to purchase HCG for sale in all states of America. It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine if they can legally buy HCG and have it legally shipped to his or her home. There may be a minimum amount of the product that one can buy or there may be restrictions on what products can be shipped to. In order to legally purchase HCG, it’s better to get a prescription from a medical doctor. Some doctors may be reluctant to write a prescription for HCG for weight loss since the FDA has not officially approved it for this purpose yet. Nonetheless, it is legal for doctors to write these prescriptions. I hope the tips above will help you easily find HCG for Sale. To learn more about HCG for Sale, I recommend you checking out HCG Weight Loss, where HCG dieters can learn all the necessary information about HCG Weight Loss and share their experiences in losing weight.

Hcg for Weight Loss

by

The use of hCG for weight loss is once again gaining momentum with the help of 7 millions sales of Kevin Trudeau’s latest book, “The Weight Loss Cure.” Dozens of new websites including hCG Diet Info (www.hcgdietinfo.com) and numerous sub-sites to weight clinics and weight loss practitioners are springing up almost overnight. According to the editor of the hCG Diet Info website, their traffic levels have gone from a few dozen hits a week to several thousand a day almost immediately following Kevin Trudeau’s nightly infomercials.
Fact or Fad? Well, the jury is still out. hCG manufacturers declare that the hCG fertility drugs such as Pregnyl which are described in Trudeau’s book, have no effect regarding weight loss. On the other hand, long-term weight loss professionals and physicians offer thousands of hcg diet success stories. Research and reviews are posted on Dr. Belluscio’s website, hCG Obesity (www.hcgobesity.org) who also happened to have developed the highly demanded oral hCG pills.
The hCG weight loss protocol is declared to not only help an individual lose weight regardless if the dieter uses hCG injections or pills, but to perform a metabolic recovery, where the hypothyroid is said to be reset, boosting the metabolism and increasing the person’s ability to burn fat at a much higher rate. hCG is also said to break down body fat, causing rapid weight loss by mass even before registering on a scale. Simultaneously, it is said to protect the endogenous fat and muscle which the body needs to stay healthy, but also avoiding sagging and loose skin known of excessive of weight loss.
The debate amongst practitioners of these protocols argues that the original hCG diet protocol developed by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons should not be modified, as suggested by many, including Kevin Trudeau. However, thousands of dieters are following Trudeau’s advice, finding little wrong with adding large amounts of tea and organic foods to their menu as opposed to the extremely strict 500 calorie diet described in Dr. Simeons manuscript, “Pounds and Inches” (can be found at www.hcgdietinfo.com for free.) Dr. Belluscio, a devoted follower of the Dr. Simeons hcg diet protocol, reminds dieters of the extensive research that went into Dr. ATW Simeons work.
Claims of the diet being unhealthy are plenty, with questions on the use of natural hCG and the fact that it’s produced from the urine of pregnant women- however, most hCG on the market such as Pregnyl is actually synthetic. In addition, concerns that a 500 calorie diet is stressful to the body and specifically on the muscle tissue of the heart, are met with the explanation that the fat being burnt releases thousands of calories into the system before being expelled.
Regardless of these issues, hCG sales are spiking- not only for the substance itself but for related information and supplies. Unfortunately, along with this comes fraud- particularly from faux websites claiming to sell hCG and other prescription drugs. A warning from hCG Diet Info was released recently, after the editor was contacted by a woman who had wired $500 US Dollars through Western Union to a website claiming to be an overseas pharmacy offering hCG but never heard from them again. To avoid this, hCG Diet Info strongly advises hCG dieters to seek their hCG treatment through a nearby provider but if purchasing hCG on the internet, they warn individuals not to wire money via Western Union and to request reviews of sites before making a purchase.
