Are “Load” Days Necessary for Success with the HCG Treatment Plan?

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

If you are ready to start the HCG treatment plan, you’ll notice that it is divided into three distinct phases. Each phase is targeted to modify the behavior of each individual dieter as well as trigger a biochemical change that will cause rapid weight loss.

Dieters who follow the Kevin Trudeau protocol will actually have four distinct phases, as Trudeau calls for a detoxifying routine prior to starting the load phase as specified by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons. You may wonder if you can actually get fast weight loss by skipping part of phase 2 of the plan, known as “loading.” Or if you are following the Trudeau protocol, you may want to skip both the detox and the loading to head straight into the VLCD (very low calorie diet) phase of the plan.

What is a “load” day?

If you are following the protocol, then you will have two days set aside before you begin the VLCD, which are called “load” days. During these two days, you are to eat as many high fat foods as you can until you are satiated. Don’t eat enough to make yourself sick, just enough fats that you are priming the pump, so to speak, for weight loss.

Even during these permissive days, the emphasis is not so much on bad fats as it is on olive oils, nut butters, and plant-based fats. After the second day of “loading,” you begin the VLCD protocol.

Why are “load” days important?

Load days are important for two major reasons. First, they allow you to indulge in all the high fat foods you wish for two days before you start the most restrictive phase of the plan. This gives dieters a healthy emotional release before heading into the more difficult, but rewarding, work ahead.

Secondly, the load days really set the stage for the VLCD to come. By loading up on fats and then severely restricting your caloric intake, your body is primed for the biochemical transformation that the hormone will make in your hypothalamus and your body.

What happens if I skip the load days?

Some dieters make the mistake of skipping load days in their haste to start the weight loss rolling on the VLCD phase of the diet. But this can actually backfire. Because loading is so important in setting the stage for the program, skipping it can cause the following issues:

  • Hunger pains, even when taking the hormone and following the VLCD exactly;
  • Fatigue, even when restricting exercise;
  • Plateaus and stalls;
  • Weight gain, in some extreme cases;
  • Cheating, as dieters feel they cannot cope emotionally with the restrictions of the VLCD.

Have Fun with Your HCG Treatment!

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

One thing we want to encourage almost more than anything else is to have fun with your HCG treatment!  If you’re on the HCG diet, it’s because you’re ready to change your life.  Don’t let the diet be a drag for you. Start incorporating positive changes right away!

End Boredom with Creative Recipes
One way to do this is to get creative with recipes.  At HCG Diet Direct, we, along with some of our former and current clients, have compiled some recipes to get you started and help you along. However, we definitely encourage experimentation.

Especially if cooking is a passion of yours, you should take this opportunity to shine!  Don’t think that being healthy means limitations in the kitchen.  Think of it as the exploration of a whole new territory!

Turkey and Tomato Soup
One of our favorite recipes is turkey and tomato soup.  It’s easy to prepare and tastes great!  You’ll need 100 grams of cooked ground turkey, two cans of stewed or crushed organic tomatoes, three cloves of crushed garlic, two teaspoons of red wine vinegar, and a pinch each of parsley, cumin, basil, rosemary, and red pepper flakes.

All real whole foods and seasonings that you can find at the neighborhood grocery store. No fancy frozen prepackaged expensive meals here.

You’ll simply put the garlic and tomatoes in a pot, and add your seasonings, then let it cook for five minutes.  Add the turkey, and let it come to a boil. Then cook for five or ten minutes more, and serve it while it’s warm.  It’s that easy.  For days when you would normally grab Mickey D’s or pizza on the way home from work, short and sweet recipes like this can be lifesavers.

For days when you want something a little more involved, well, the sky’s the limit.  Especially if you’re an ace in the kitchen, I think you’ll find great pleasure in combining foods and seasonings in new ways, maybe modifying old favorite recipes to adhere to the criteria of your new lifestyle.  Think of it as a time of learning, creating, and growing!

How The HCG Treatment Resets Your Metabolism

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

Late science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke (best known for 2001: A Space Odyssey) was a contemporary of Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, though it is doubtful that the two men ever met or even knew of each other. Nonetheless, Clarke might have been talking about the HCG treatment when he said, “Any technology, sufficiently advanced, is indistinguishable from magic.”

Although it may seem to be magic (dropping one to two pounds a day can certainly seem miraculous), Dr. Simeons’ weight loss method is based on solid science.

Origins of HCG

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG for short) is a natural by-product of gestation. It is secreted by the fetus during its development and protects the fetus in two ways:

  • should the mother be undernourished, it prevents her system from leeching nutrients
  • it prevents the mother’s immune system from mistaking the father’s DNA for a “foreign” pathogen (like a transplanted organ)

Dr. Simeons used the hormone on patients who were morbidly obese due to a dysfunctional thyroid. He discovered that small amounts of this hormone could actually cause weight loss.

How It Works

To one’s bodily systems, which are controlled by the brain but have no consciousness of their own, there is no difference between a deliberate reduction in calories through a low-calorie diet and a genuine famine caused by external factors (such as drought or pestilence). In either case, these systems will adjust themselves in such a way as to conserve fat reserves.

This is all very well and good in a state of nature, but it makes most forms of dieting exceptionally difficult. The mechanism by which bodily systems and their function are fueled is controlled by a small gland in our brains, called the hypothalamus. It is like a combination fuel switch and throttle. It determines which fuel sources are used and the rate at which these are utilized.

So, imagine you are driving a car with two reserve fuel tanks – one which holds lubricating oil and the other jellied gasoline. You are out in the desert and the primary tank is almost empty.  You can run the motor on lubricating oil for awhile, but it won’t run very well, and that oil is really needed to protect the engine components. The jellied gasoline is extremely volatile – but because it is in jelled form, the fuel injectors cannot use it. Therefore, the fuel switch automatically goes to the oil tank, then cuts way back on the accelerator so that the car is barely moving.

This is essentially what happens in your body on a low-calorie diet. The fat deposits (adipose) are like jellied gasoline – they are rich in energy, but in a form that the body cannot readily use.

What HCG does is: (A) breaks up these adipose deposits, turning them into a liquid that the body can burn, and (B) reprograms the hypothalamus to access the adipose first rather than turning to muscle tissue and viscera.

The result is that normal metabolism is maintained, even when calories are in short supply.

3 Reasons to Try the HCG Treatment

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

If you have tried and failed on countless diet programs, then you need to give the HCG treatment a try. This unique diet program addresses the underlying cause of obesity: a lack of the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone in the body. Most diets simply ignore the lack of this hormone in your body and try to starve your body into weight loss–as a result, you are doomed to disappointment.

Following are the top 3 scenarios that other diets create and why our program will help you succeed:

1.    On the typical diet, you lose weight and then hit a wall

If you have had success with other diet programs but only to a certain point, there is a reason why you hit a plateau. The other diets, by depriving you of certain necessary dietary elements (ie. carbs) or restricting your calories, cause some weight loss. However, this weight loss is not the excess fat that causes obesity. It is the lean muscle tissue and structural fat your body needs to stay healthy.

Our diet program addresses this issue head-on. By restoring the levels of the hormone in your body, you trigger the hypothalamus in your brain to burn excess fat, not the structural fat or lean muscle your body needs to function well.

2.    On the typical diet, you will experience fatigue

Many people crash and burn with the typical diet because their bodies are being deprived of the nutrients they need to function optimally. As a result, they feel tired or sluggish. This makes it difficult to stick with any plan for a long period of time, because you need energy to keep up with your lifestyle.

Our diet program actually increases your energy level. As you burn the excess fat, your body releases pent-up energy. You will feel a natural kind of boost that will enable you to keep up with your kids or stay out all night, without feeling buzzed or cranky.

3.    On the typical diet, you will feel hungry and deprived

Another common side effect of dieting is hunger. This is because you aren’t being given the nutrients you need. This often leads to a cycle of binge eating that wrecks your metabolism and your self-esteem.

With our program, even though your calories are limited, you will never feel hungry. That’s because your body gets the extra fuel it needs by processing that excess fat efficiently for optimum nutrition.

As you can see, our diet is geared to address the very problems that most diets neglect. If you are tired of depriving yourself and never getting the weight loss you need, it’s time to give our HCG Weight Loss Plan a try!

HCG Fat Loss: A Permanent Diet Solution

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

The reason why so many people fail with traditional diets is simple. Traditional diets do nothing to promote HCG fat loss. Instead, they rely on calorie or carbohydrate deprivation to promote weight loss. While that may work in the short-term, these diets are doomed to failure because they do not address the fundamental chemical imbalance that causes weight gain.

How HCG Works

HCG works because it signals the hypothalamus of the brain to begin burning excess fat deposits immediately. Other diets rely on deprivation of calories or carbs to create the same effect but often you begin burning structural fat, which protects your organs and tissues, or lean muscle tissue. Both of these are needed by the body to function. HCG targets the excess adipose tissue, which is what causes obesity and health problems like diabetes and high blood pressure.

Why Oral HCG?

In order to burn these deposits of excess fat, the body needs supplements of HCG. We recommend oral HCG drops, which are available directly from us and which do not require a prescription.

Our HCG is a homeopathic remedy which contains a small, potent dosage of HCG to prompt your hypothalamus to begin functioning properly. This remedy is manufactured in a lab that has been creating homeopathic remedies for years, under the strict guidance of the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of the United States. It is the highest quality and most effective HCG treatment you can buy. It is also much less expensive than HCG injections, so you can begin your weight loss journey even if money is tight.

If you have had trouble losing weight with traditional diets, or have lost weight only to gain it back, your body is in need of HCG. Get off the diet treadmill and start your permanent weight loss journey today. Order our supply of oral HCG drops, and begin seeing dramatic results immediately!

HCG Treatment Might Prevent Breast Cancer

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Studies are still somewhat inconclusive, but the theory is that Mother Nature knows what she’s doing, after all.  HCG is the pregnancy hormone with benefits that seem to extend far beyond pregnancy.  HCG treatment is already used for infertility, weight loss, the detection of certain types of tumors, and to counteract possible symptoms of pituitary gland disorders in prepubescent males.  It seems probable that it might soon be used to guard against breast cancer, too.

Scientists already knew that one of the best protective measures against breast cancer was a full-term pregnancy at a young age, but only recently have they started to figure out exactly why.  They’re fairly confident it has to do with HCG, the hormone produced in the placenta in the early stages of pregnancy.

Conclusive studies on humans haven’t yet been completed, but from the tests run on rats, it appears that rats exposed to HCG for a 21-day period (rat pregnancies typically last 21 days) and then exposed to a proven breast cancer carcinogen are far less likely to develop breast cancer.

It seems that HCG produces changes in breast tissue that lead to lasting protection against cancer.  Clinical trials in human females are currently being conducted.  This is wonderful news for public health—if HCG is the source of the protection, it’s only a matter of time before scientists will be able to replicate its natural protection for those at risk for breast cancer who don’t necessarily want to get pregnant just in order to prevent the disease—or who aren’t able to.

Of course, if women aren’t currently able to get pregnant for reasons that could be corrected, HCG could help with that, too.  Who knew that one of the most natural of natural processes—pregnancy—could produce such beneficial effects?  It makes you wonder a little why we’ve spent so much time as a species trying to figure out unnatural ways to improve our lives, when it seems likely that we had what we needed all along.

The HCG Treatment for Overall Well-Being

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009

Under normal conditions, a 500 calorie diet is nearly impossible but Dr. Simeon’s HCG treatment makes it possible.

Studies show that a loss of just 10% of your weight significantly decreases your chances of developing high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. If this weight loss comes about through healthier food choices, your risk of cancer also drops significantly.

It is not just what you weigh but what you eat that influences your risk for cancer. What you might be thinking now is, “Great news, but diets don’t work for me.”

Most Americans have tried more than three diets in their lifetime and are still struggling with their weight. This is commonly the result of strict diets. When the body is denied the nutrients it needs, it slows its metabolism and begins to prepare the body for more denial by storing fat.

As the dieter loses weight on the scale, it is muscle mass, not fat that is lost. When the goal weight is obtained and the dieter returns to their normal eating habits, the pounds are inevitably packed back on.

This yo-yo dieting has been proven to be an effective weight gaining tool, yet millions and millions of people are caught in this cycle with hopes of losing weight. Step out of the yo-yo dieting cycle and into the HCG treatment. The HCG treatment tells your body that it’s time to use stored fat.

On the very low calorie diet you will be eating nutrient dense foods that you can find at your local stores. You will learn how to eat better and as the HCG trains your body to expect to weigh less, your food intake will mirror that. You will lose weight and you will keep it off.

Since your metabolism is reset, you can maintain healthy habit easily. The HCG treatment really will change the way you eat and keep it that way. You will not fall back into bad habits.

HCG Treatment for Weight Loss

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009

Countless Americans who struggle with weight problems and obesity have much to benefit from trying HCG treatment.  The health problems associated with being overweight are too great to fully list, but those who are overweight know first hand how important it is to lose those extra pounds.  Despite the pressing importance of having one’s weight under control, however, losing weight can be one of the most difficult things to do.  This is where the HCG treatment comes in.  With HCG supplements, it is now easier than ever before to lose weight.

HCG is a hormone that naturally occurs in every living person.  Research has demonstrated that when individuals take HCG supplements their appetite is suppressed and their metabolism is increased.  When these things happen, the body sheds excess weight.  And unlike other diets where individuals must suffer through hunger pangs, the appetite suppressing quality of HCG treatment makes dieting a simple and painless process.  Many individuals do not even realize that they are consuming as little as 500 calories per day while on the HCG diet.

In addition to taking daily HCG supplements, the HCG treatment includes following a strict diet plan.  But the good news here is that there is no guess work involved, as the HCG plan is outlined for you by experts in the HCG field.  When you purchase your oral HCG, you will be told precisely what you can and cannot eat.  And the best part of this is that everything on your HCG diet is made up of natural foods that you probably already enjoy.  You have everything to gain from giving HCG treatment a try.
