If you're new to the HCG diet protocol, your first few days can be overwhelming. Choosing to take a big step toward enduring weight loss with the HCG diet is an exciting process, but it can be confusing. Make your life easier by viewing an HCG dosage chart to ensure you're taking an appropriate amount of the HCG hormone.
Human chorionic gonadotropin -- HCG -- is a natural hormone that the body makes during the early stages of pregnancy. HCG's biological function is to support the normal development of an egg in the ovary and stimulate the release of that egg during ovulation.
However, in recent years HCG has also been explored for its role in healthy sustained weight loss. The HCG diet is now in widespread use among dieters of all adult ages. Those who back the HCG diet claim with anecdotal evidence, rave that supplementing a low-calorie diet with HCG eliminates the usual pitfalls of extreme dieting, like hunger, weakness, and a slowed metabolism.
While the team at HCG Supplies aren't doctors and can't give medical advice, we can say that we believe HCG is an effective way to lose weight without suffering hunger pangs when the plan is followed properly.
If you're a serial dieter who hasn't experienced the lasting results you crave, you'll be pleased to discover that the HCG diet is unique for many reasons:
HCG resets your hypothalamus, so it's more challenging to regain what you lost.
The HCG protocol can dramatically reshape your body. Other diets make you gaunt in the face and take the weight from undesirable places like breasts, while the unwanted fat on your hips and thighs stays. With the HCG diet, you lose abnormal fat from those tricky spots you've been trying to reduce for ages. For example: if you're an apple shape, it can take fat from your stomach. If you're a pear shape, you can start melting fat from your hips and thighs.
The HCG diet is famous for inducing rapid and consistent weight loss. However, be aware that the hype you've heard is unrealistic for most. The majority of dieters do not lose one pound or more per day. While this can be true for most men, women typically lose .5-.75 of a pound per day.
If you're a woman and doing the protocol for 40 days, expect to lose about 25 pounds when you faithfully follow the plan. Men typically lose about 30 pounds or more in that same period.
The HCG Dosage Chart outlines the ampoule size and amount of bacteriostatic water you will need to mix based on the daily HCG dosage strength you would like to have.
The HCG dosage chart will also show you the number of days and the volume of HCG injections that will be yielded from the HCG mixture.
Bear in mind that your ideal dosage is determined by your personal preference and by what works and feels best for you. You may have to experiment a bit to find your own ideal dosage that is within the recommended range of 125-200 international units per day.
