What is HCG?
HCG or
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
is a protein hormone, a peptide that occurs naturally in every tissue of
the human body in tiny amounts. It is more prevalent in women during the
first trimester of pregnancy. It is the hormone that tells the body to
utilize every nutrient digested while burning abnormal fat at an
accelerated rate. HCG can safely be used by both men and women with no side
effects. HCG is taken daily while following a nutritious, yet specific low
calorie diet. Most people report losing between 1 to 2 pounds every day.
The
HCG for A Slim Me
program lasts between 23 and 40 days and if there is more weight to lose,
the program can be extended on a weekly basis.
How Does HCG Work?
The
HCG for A Slim Me
program consists of a specific low calorie diet in combination with daily
doses of prescription HCG. It is important to follow the diet program
carefully to get the best results. While on the
HCG for A Slim Me
program appetite is naturally suppressed, yet it is not a stimulant and
will not raise blood pressure or increase heart rate. On the
HCG for A Slim Me
program you will burn unwanted fat but will not burn healthy fat or lean
muscle mass. During the first few low calorie days some people
experience mild hunger but that changes by day 4 or 5. Most people report
no hunger at all and often have a hard time eating the required food. HCG
signals the body to pull nutrients that are locked in fat cells then
flushes them into the blood stream to be utilized by the body. Even
though you will be eating a low calorie diet, your blood stream will be
nutrient rich. In addition, the hypothalamus makes adjustments to the
metabolic rate which helps people feel full faster. Many clients also
report a feeling of well-being after 4 or 5 days on the
HCG for A Slim Me
program.
After your free consultation our staff will carefully explain the HCG
for A Slim Me
program
to help you achieve optimal results.
HCG helps to mobilize and burn the unwanted fat stored around the hips,
thighs, belly and upper arms and leave healthy "structural fat
untouched. Excess fat will disappear fast and problem areas will change
more efficiently.
Are There Side Effects?
There
are little to no side effects. Some people report feeling slightly tired
while their body adjusts to the low calorie diet but most report feelings
of well-being. HCG cannot be used by pregnant or nursing women or those with
active cancer. People with diabetes, high blood pressure or other severe
medical conditions should consult their physician before beginning the
HCG for A Slim Me
program or any weight loss program.

Is HCG harmful?
A:
No. During pregnancy HCG is produced daily in a quantity hundreds of times

during the first trimester of pregnancy, a woman would likely starve, as most of the nutrients go to the developing fetus.
