hcg diet

In the 1950s, the HCG diet (HCG) was developed by British nutritionists. It is designed for both women and men. Diet is of particular importance for obese people II – III Art. By the year 2000, the principles of the hCG diet had achieved tremendous popularity around the world: news in NBC, Fox News, even Oprah Winfrey on her show talked about a new way to lose weight.

The essence of the diet – taking homeopathic hCG (human chorionic gonadotropic hormone) orally in the form of drops. According to nutritionists, the hormone gives signals to the central nervous system and redirects the body to use its own energy reserves, set aside in the form of "reserve" local fat deposits on the abdomen, thighs, buttocks in the form of visceral fat. The biological role of hCG – adaptation of the body of a pregnant woman to bearing a fetus. The hormone stimulates the woman's body to store fats and nutrients for the unborn child.

It has been experimentally confirmed that by introducing the hormone from outside to a non-pregnant woman or man, while adhering to a strict low-calorie diet, not more than 500 kcal per day, chorionic gonadotropin transfers the body to use its own fat reserves, solving the problem of overweight.
