More information about the hCG diet
More than 50 years ago, British-born physician Albert T.W. Simeons discovered a link between weight-loss and hCG, a hormone produced during pregnancy. hCG was first used for fertility treatments for men and women. The FDA requires that we tell the public that it has no data supporting that hCG as effective for weight-loss. Despite this fact, it has been used extensively by many in what is known as “off label use”.
Highly effective weight-loss, medically supervised
The human chorionic gonadotropin hormone is given in a low dosage so that it may help boost your metabolism, release stored fat to be used as energy, and promote lean muscle mass. The results are fast! The hCG diet coupled with our Boost Injection and personalized medical supervision can help you achieve your goals.
B-complex/MIC Injections are given weekly during the program, enhancing results via lipotropic agents such as Vitamin B Complex, Choline, Methionine and Inositol. These agents support liver functions that utilize and burn stored fats.

What is hCG?
More than 50 years ago, British-born physician Albert T.W. Simeons discovered a link between weight-loss and hCG, a hormone produced during pregnancy. Human Chorionic gonadoptrophin was first used for fertility treatments for men and women. For weight loss, hCG is given in a low dosage. The results are fast because hCG helps boost your metabolism, releases stored fat to be used as energy, and does this all while maintaining muscle mass.
Is the hCG an injection or drops?
We use a daily injection to release energy stored in your fat cells, maintain your metabolism, and eliminate hunger. The injection form of hCG is the most viable because it enters the bloodstream in the proper dose each time.
Do I need to exercise?
No! Successful weight loss is 75% dependent on what you eat and only 25% on exercise. It is more important to focus on eating the proper amounts of healthy foods than going to the gym. However, walking just 20 minutes per day is not only good for your overall health but it will help you lose weight faster, and make you happier.
Why do I need to drink 100 ounces of water every day?
Water curbs your appetite. And dehydration can slow you metabolic rate and stall fat loss. In fact, in a 2013 study showed 14 healthy men and women increased their metabolic rate by 30 percent after drinking about 16 ounces of water! Drinking plenty of water also helps flush your fat and toxins stored in your fat cells, so you not only look slimmer, you feel better.
Why can’t I eat foods with sugar and starches on the hCG diet?
Starches breakdown into sugars during digestion and sugar stimulates insulin and insulin turns it into fat. The effectiveness of the hCG hormone to release energy from your fat cells will be interrupted when sugars and starches are ingested. Failure to stick to the diet will minimize the weight loss results.

Failure to stick to the diet will minimize the weight loss results.
Can I be on the diet if I’m vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or lactose intolerant?
Yes, in fact the diet is naturally gluten-free and there are plenty other delicious options for dairy. Tofu is permitted and a great protein source for vegetarians and vegans.
Won’t I starve if I only consume 500 calories per day or slow down my metabolism?
No, because as hCG releases energy from your fat reserves your body begins to “consume” the fat, which acts as a source of energy in place of food. Depending on your weight, you burn up to one pound of fat each day (one pound is 3,500 calories). Therefore you will not experience extreme hunger or slow down your metabolism.
