Will I be hungry on the HCG diet?
Doctors report that patients taking HCG could drastically reduce their caloric intake without experiencing the hunger pains, weakness, headaches, and irritability that typically occur on a very low calorie diet.
HCG helps reduce the craving for food by metabolizing stored fat. In other words, when you use HCG your daily need for calories is met partially by the food you eat and partially by the fat that you burn. Without HCG, 500 calories of food per day is a starvation diet. With HCG, it is not.
Are there any other benefits to the HCG diet?
Fat loss is the target. However, doctors report that patients lowered their cholesterol levels, decreased their blood pressure, normalized their sugar metabolism and sometimes even reversed Type 2 diabetes and improved their skin elasticity.
Furthermore, HCG resets the hypothalamus part of the brain, which helps to rebalance a variety of hormones. Hormone imbalance is one of the most important factors that lead to gaining excess fat in the first place.
