Actually, the answer to this question is “none” – expect for your supply of HCG drops. If you are taking injections, then a box of syringes and a sterile container are two of the HCG diet supplies you’ll need. However, we do not recommend the injectable form. Drops are just as effective, are easier to obtain and safer and easier to use.
Beyond this however, all you really need for weight loss success is Dr. Simeons’ protocols and a good supply of fresh vegetables and lean meat.
What’s Wrong With HCG Injections?
Technically nothing, but ask yourself if you really want to stick yourself with a needle three times a day. Most people do not.
There are other issues to consider. First of all, anything that needs to be injected usually requires a physician’s prescription. Chances are that injectable HCG is not even legal in your state. You can order it online from an overseas lab, but there are no guarantees about product quality, since these labs are poorly regulated (if at all). Plus, it could be seized by custom agents, in which case you would not receive it at all (but you may get a visit from federal agents).
Assuming that everything goes well and you actually get your supply of HCG, there is the question of preparation. What you get is two vials, one of which contains the powdered form of HCG, the other of which contains sterile water. You need to mix these elements every time you take a shot, and the mixture must be in exact proportions.
HCG Drops are Safe and Convenient
HCG in liquid form is premixed, safe, and ready for use. All you have to do is place 20-30 drops under your tongue before mealtimes and hold it there for about ten minutes. The reason is so that the medication can be absorbed. Were it to go directly into the stomach, it would be destroyed by digestive acids and become useless.
Storage is also easy: while you are using it, your HCG drops can go into the medicine cabinet. When not being used (such as when you are taking a break from it), it should be kept in the refrigerator.
Finally, you should know that liquid HCG is manufactured by fully licensed, authorized, regulated professional laboratories in the United States by qualified personnel. Homeopathic remedies such as HCG are made under the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration according to standards established under the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States (HPUS). Domestic manufacturers are the best source of HCG diet supplies.
I Heard That The FDA Had Not Approved HCG
You heard correctly – but you only heard part of the story. HCG has been approved by the FDA as a fertility treatment, and has been used for many decades for this purpose. Use of HCG as a weight loss remedy is regarded as “off-label” use. Such use is quite common in the medical profession. A common example is aspirin, which is normally an analgesic and anti-inflammatory. However, it is also used as an over-the-counter blood thinner.
