HCG spokane FAQ
1. What is HCG and how does it work?
HCG is a hormone naturally created in the body. It has many utilities and is utilized medically to treat a variety of conditions . It is the pregnancy hormone. This hormone allows the body to catalyze fat and use it as energy for both mother and fetus . This acts as a “fail-safe” system when energy is needed instantly. For weight reduction, we use only a very small quantity of HCG to exploit on this same mechanism . Using HCG in this way does not mimic pregnancy; in fact, it can be safely used by both men and women.
2. Is HCG Safe?
HCG is extremely safe. Women may experience very high levels during pregnancy with no graveaffects. The small amount used for weight loss has no know side effects.
3. Is HCG safe for men?
The HCG is in fact already found in men. It is present in every human tissue, including males and females. The clinical studies conducted at our HCG SlimXpress™ centers show that men generally get even faster results and tend to lose more weight than women.
4. If HCG works so well for weight reduction, why don't pregnant women
lose weight?
HCG works to consume fat for utilization by the body only when there is an important reduction in calories and fat. For weight loss, a very low calorie diet of all the right foods is used to initiate HCG to help rid the body of fat.
5. Will my metabolism slow down if I am on a very low calorie diet?
It is a fact that normally when decrease consumption of calories and fat, our body aggregates fat and our metabolism slows down. This occurs because fat is really a life-saving source of stored energy. When a very low calorie diet is used in combination with the HCG, the hormone signals the body to used stored fat for energy, and consumes excess fat reserves . It's a natural process, so no ill effects on your metabolism will result. The HCG keeps the body from going into starvation mode and holding onto fat as it reorganizes your metabolism.
6. Does the weight loss slow down after the first two weeks ?
Many times there is a large amount of weight loss in the first, then a plateau of leveling off. This does not mean that your weight loss has stopped . Typically , inches are being lost continuously while on the program, and after a period of time, patients will experience another large drop on the scale. Weight loss is thus gained in this stair-step fashion. Remember the HCG SlimXpress™ program stresses on fat and inch loss.
7. Is it ok to skip a meal or protein at one of my meals?
No you don't ever want to omit any of your meals. It's vital to eat all of your 500 calories and specially your protein so that you only lose fat and not muscle.
8. Can I exercise daily?
Low key or no exercise only! Anyone who over exercises will be starving and will want to give up, plus their body will go into starvation mode and they will lose less weight! Your calorie consumption is not large enough for this. You can do about 20 min. of walking a day and a few sit ups or push ups if you feel it's needed. You will not be losing muscle just fat, so when you go back to the gym you won't skip a beat, you will just be thinner!!!
9.Wouldn't I reduce the same amount of weight consuming a very low calorie diet without HCG?
You can lose weight simply by consuming lesser calories and fat, but because the body reserves fat during times of deprivation , you will most likely misplace muscle and bone before fat. This causes cellular metabolism to slow down, so in the long run, it would make gaining weight easier, as well as decrease bone density and muscle mass. By using HCG with the low calorie diet, extra fat is utilized for energy and the rest is eliminated; the low calorie diet is vital in preventing immediate refilling of vacant fat cells. You benefit by preferentially getting rid of surplus fat without affecting your bone and muscle. With HCG you can lose the weight easily and keep it off !
10.Should I be concerned about buying and injecting HCG manufactured in China or India?
Some people are buying HCG from internet pharmacies illicitly without a recommendation. The HCG they are buying through these pharmacies is usually coming from China and or India. Though the HCG from China and or India is very cheap this HCG could at best be of lower grade and at worst infected. The HCG they are injecting might be working but at what cost to their health. Note the following warning.
As the manufacturing goes to China and India, the risk to human health is growing exponentially," said Brant Zell, past chairman of the Bulk Pharmaceuticals Task Force. The group represents American drug-ingredient makers that filed a citizen's petition with the FDA last year asking the agency to oversee foreign firms more aggressively .
"The low level there" of follow-up inspections, "combined with the huge amount of importing, greatly increases the potential that consumers will get products that have impurities or ineffective ingredients," he said.
There are even reports that Doctors in the Seattle Everett area could be selling this inferior HCG from China and India unintentionally to their patients. Before you use any HCG in your body you have the right and responsibility to enquire the superiority and source of your HCG. We can provide our patients with the recognized verification of the following guarantee.
11.The HCG diet is very low calorie, will I get hungry?
With the “original” HCG diet with its extreme calorie and protein constraints this was common. At our weight loss clinic the amount of calories is tailored for you to decrease or terminate this and other problems concerned with the original HCG diet.
12.How much weight can I expect to lose on the program?
On average, our patients lose around 20 lbs* per month. Often, people lose 10 to 14 lbs* in the first week.
13.Why are some people calling HCG the "Weight Loss Cure"?
HCG is also being called the "Weight Loss Cure" because after taking it for weight loss, it reprograms your body to use reserved fat for energy when calories are reduced for a period of time. Or put another way, it helps you retain your weight and not regain the pounds you've lost.
