hCG Diet and Diabetes

Can The hCG Diet Be A Cure For Diabetes?

Recently there was a study done that linked a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) of 500 calories, very much like the hCG diet, to reversing Type II diabetes and the need for insulin or other medications and heart function improvements in a large majority of patients. The research study was conducted at the Radiology Department at Leiden University Medical Center. It consisted of a group of 16 people made up of men and women.

For 16 weeks the group eat a VLCD consisting of 500 calories per day while they participated in the study. At the end of the study scientists and doctors observed how body mass index (BMI), dangerous fat around the heart, heart functions and the need for diabetic medications dramatically improved. The majority of the participants no longer needed medications and showed no signs of diabetes. BMI was reduced by 22% and the dangerous fat around the heart was reduced by 21% in addition they showed a 20% improvement in diastolic function.

The study surprised the scientist and doctors who supervised and monitored the participants and outcomes. Dr. Sebastian Hammer from the study stated, "These effects are long term, illustrating the potential of this method. Lifestyle interventions may have a more powerful beneficial cardiac effects than medication in these patients."

The medical costs of these health conditions are astronomical, diabetes costing $174 billion, obesity $147 billion and cardiovascular disease $444 billion annually in the United States, a simple solution maybe found with inexpensive dietary changes for a few short weeks.

The hCG diet was created by Dr. Siemons to help cure obesity and this study brings positive news for those wanting to do the hCG diet who may have diabetes, who are obese and who may have heart conditions. With the added benefit of using real hCG that will protect you from muscle wasting while on the VLCD and help ease hunger as your fat is released, the hCG diet maybe the perfect low cost antidote for those wanting to improve their health rapidly.

FDA hCG & Homeopathic hCG

The FDA has targeted several homeopathic hCG suppliers who sell over the counter hCG in the forum of pills, pellets and sprays. The FDA has stated that these products are fraudulent and contain 0 hCG. These 7 homeopathic companies products and many more homeopathic hCG products will be taken off the market.

The hCG diet does work however it needs to be done with real prescription strength hCG as intended by Dr. Simeons and outlined in his manuscript Pounds and Inches. Homeopathic hCG doesn’t follow what Dr. Simeons manuscript requires from hCG 125-200 iu. And all hCG you buy must test positive on a pregnancy test strip or it has no hCG in it.

For several years we have provided only real prescription strength hCG for doing hCG via injections or orally as Dr. Simeons has intended. We have never recommend or encouraged any usage of homeopathic hCG because it never contained hCG and wasn't the proper way to do the hCG diet.

Remember there are only 2 ways to get real hCG. Doctor prescribed (some have online nationwide services but are costly) or from an online pharmacy that is not in the USA (and their affiliates). Remember the FDA will allow you to import up to a 3 month supply of any drug for personal use.

The FDA isn't going to ban the hCG diet, the food you eat isn't regulated, they are just pulling homeopathic hCG off the market. You can still get prescription strength hCG injections or drops and follow the diet. Prescription strength hCG is and always will be legal.

hCG and Menstrual Cycle

hCG And Your Menstrual Cycle

For Women ONLY!

In the hCG Diet manuscript Pounds and Inches by Dr. Simeons he states to start the hCG diet after the last day of your menstrual cycle. He also states to stop the hCG injections or drops during your menstrual cycle.

For women who go on the hCG diet and have their period, they often wonder what to do and why they have to stop. This post will clearly answer that question based on Dr. Simeons manuscript so there won't be any confusion as to the rules you should follow when you go on the hCG diet and your period comes.

Rules

Dr. Simeons states you should stop the hCG drops or injections during your cycle but continue the consuming the 500 calorie hCG diet foods. When your cycle is over you resume taking your hCG drops and continue with the 500 calorie diet.

Dr. Simeons also states to start the hCG diet after the last day of your period.

Hormones Are The Answer

Hormones control the start and finish of your menstrual cycle. The Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and the Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). Both hormones are produced by the pituitary gland in the brain to mature the ovaries and later manage your menstrual cycle. During your cycle the Luteinizing Hormone is produced in abundance over powering the effects of hCG while on the diet.

The hCG won't have any positive effect on you while the Luteinizing Hormone is present. You still follow the hCG diet meal plan as hCG is still present in your system and it will help lessen some of the weight gain your hormones may have already caused you by retaining water.

42 Day Protocol

When you are on the 42 Day Protocol you still have to take 1 day off a week in addition to stopping the hCG drops when your period comes. Remember stopping the hCG drops is to prevent hCG immunity and has nothing to do with your cycle.

No Period

If you no longer have your period and are on the hCG diet, then these rules to stop the hCG drops during your menstrual cycle do not apply to you and you are free to continue the hCG diet without interruption, unless you are on the 42 Day Protocol.

What To Expect

Other women have said they are hungry during their menstrual cycle time as there isn't any hCG that is releasing the fat, however they still stick to the hCG diet 500 calorie diet plan.

Some women report cravings for sweets during their period while on the hCG diet.

Some women report they gained a few pounds, their weight loss stalled or slowed down considerably prior to the onset of their menstrual cycle, however after restarting the hCG drops in a few days the weight loss restarted. Some women have reported they maintained what they lost during that time.

TIPS

Always plan the diet around your cycle to make it as easy on yourself as possible.

Stick to the hCG diet foods.

Doing the Candida Cleanse prior to starting the hCG diet can help lessen sweet cravings and help prevent cheating.

Enjoying some hCG diet teas can help lessen cramps, cravings, and control your appetite during menstruation while on the hCG diet.

hCG diet teas can also help with releasing water retention during your menstrual cycle.

Increasing water intake will help with releasing water weight during and after your menstrual cycle.

How To Test Your hCG Drops

Whether you buy a bottle of real hCG from us or are not sure if another bottle you bought has hCG in it, TEST IT! Testing your bottle of hCG is simple. We always provide a test strip but an independent test is always welcomed.

Purchase an inexpensive hCG or Pregnancy test strip from your local Wal-Mart, Amazon, or another discount place.

Read the directions on the hCG test strip prior to using. However you will not have to hold the strip in your urine stream. You will be placing the hCG strip in your bottle of hCG. Don't worry, you won't harm the hCG and there isn't anything on the strip that will harm you.

1. Gently shake your hCG bottle.

2. DO NOT touch the reagent or end you will be dipping into the hCG with your fingers. This will cause a false negative.

3. Dip your test strip into the bottle for 15-20 seconds (just enough time to saturate the reagent on the test strip)

4. Wait the required amount of time for the strip to render its results.

5. That's it!

What Your hCG Results Mean:

1. A POSITIVE hcg test result indicates you are pregnant. Positive = Yes hCG present. On most test strips you will get 2 lines (check your instructions)

2. A NEGATIVE hcg test results indicates you are not. Negative = No hCG not present. On most test strips you will get 1 line (check your instructions)

hCG Diet Tips

Remember you need a minimum of 125 iu of hCG to release fat. Anything less and you will be on a starvation diet.

Any dilution or 6X, 30X etc, will not give you 125 iu minim of hCG to do the diet properly. You will be losing muscle and fat, be in starvation mode, and won't be resetting your hypothalamus which will cause you to regain weight when you start to eat normal again.

If your hCG bottle doesn't come with a test strip, you do not have have real hCG.

If your hCG doesn't need to be kept refrigerated, you do not have real hCG.

If your hCG is on a shelf in a store you, do not have real hCG

If your hCG has a shelf life of anything over 6 months, you do not have real hCG

If your hCG is mixed with alcohol, you do not have real hCG

For real hCG, that comes with a test strip, shipped in cold wraps, test positive and is the #1 real hCG, hCG Body Shaper.
