HCG: Obesity Has an All-Natural Cure?

There's a lot of buzz surrounding HCG, obesity's all natural cure. But does HCG live up to the hype? It's a hormone that the body produces naturally, but how exactly does it aid in weight loss? Are there side effects? Does it work? And most importantly, in this recession economy is it worth the purchase price? In this article, we try to get to the bottom of all the hype.

How does HCG aid in weight loss?

HCG is a hormone that helps the brain distinguish between fat and lean muscle tissue. It does this by prompting the hypothalamus to burn only fat but keep muscle. Essentially, by taking oral HCG supplements, you restore the natural balance of HCG in the brain, and it helps trigger your hypothalamus to burn the fat that causes your obesity.

Does HCG have side effects?

There have been no negative side effects reported with HCG supplement use. This may be because HCG is not a drug or an herbal supplement, but a hormone that the body actually needs to function. HCG does not interact with other medications or supplements. It is safe for use by both men and women.

Does HCG actually work?

According to various studies, dieters who adhere to the HCG weight loss cure do lose weight quickly--sometimes at the rate of a pound per day. They also report feeling a lot of energy and do not report feeling hunger pains between meals. Although some of the diet's success may be due to the low-calorie eating plan you must follow, it also appears to be successful because HCG keeps dieters from experiencing negative side effects. They don't feel hungry, they lose weight quickly, and they have more energy--all of which is positive feedback that keeps dieters compliant with the plan.

Is HCG expensive?

It depends on which form of HCG you take. Injectable HCG is expensive because it must be obtained with a prescription from a physician, or from an overseas pharmacy. However, oral HCG is much more affordable, as it can be obtained without a prescription from a supplier in the United States. There does not appear to be a difference in the effectiveness between the two types; so your money is better spent with oral HCG than HCG shots.

Unlike most diet supplements or plans, the HCG weight loss cure actually lives up to the hype. If you are seeking an all-natural, inexpensive route to fitness, you should give the HCG diet program a try.
