How Does HCG Make You Lose Weight?

Your weight loss journey can be difficult. At times, it can feel like everything is working against you, from your genetics to your metabolism. Fortunately, there are ways to get around your body’s natural limitations for weight loss, including trying advanced weight loss treatments. At Innovative Medicine in Lafayette, IN, we’re up-to-date on all the latest innovations, including the HCG diet.

How Does HCG Make You Lose Weight?

HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin) is a naturally-occurring hormone in the body that is usually associated with pregnant women, as HCG generally plays the role of helping to maintain a pregnancy.

But recent studies have found that this hormone can also help reduce the amount of body fat in your body, which will help you lose weight.

Why Do You Need to Target Fixed Body Fat?

In the body, there are three main types of fat – the fat that is instrumental in the health of your organs and arteries, the fat that is used for fuel, and so-called fixed fat, which is body fat that serves no clear purpose.

When we are trying to lose weight, most of us are targeting fixed body fat without even realizing it. This is because fixed body fat, unlike fat used for fuel, is more difficult to get rid of. Fixed body fat has a way of stubbornly clinging on, no matter how much work you put into getting rid of it.

The general theory to sustain any about of weight loss is to get rid of about one pound of fixed fat a week. However, because fixed fat is reluctant to be burned as energy, it requires both time and effort to burn the necessary 3,500 calories to shed one pound of fixed fat.

How Does This Weight Loss Treatment Work?

There’s no getting around it: your diet plays an instrumental role in how much weight you are able to lose. As much as we might want to maintain our unrestricted diets, it’s inevitable that some things have to change in order for any significant and sustained loss to occur.

This means that, sooner or later, you’re going to have to embrace a diet that works with your body and your weight goals.

This treatment for losing weight can be especially effective for those who want to boost the ability to reduce fixed fat, particularly for those who have struggled with losing weight before. This diet works with a three-pronged approach involving medication, low calories, and low carb intake.

HCG Medication

This hormone is theorized to specifically target the fixed fat cells in your body to help turn that fat into fuel. By using a medication that will help you ultimately burn fixed fat more effectively, you can achieve a quicker result in your journey.

Low-Calories

Obviously, the fewer calories you eat, the more your body will have to rely on burning through the calories (fat) that have already been stored in your body. Eating low-calorie foods changes the way your body processes fuel and makes it easier to reach that golden number of 3,500 calories to lose one pound of body fat.

Common Low-Calorie Foods

The more natural and raw your diet, the fewer calories you will eat. Generally speaking, most processed and starchy foods have more calories, so the easiest way to stick to eating low-calorie foods is to try to eat whole or green foods.

For example, some low-calorie foods include apples, berries, yogurt, cheese, oats, vegetables, soups, nuts and seeds, and fish. Incorporating these foods into your daily diet, and eating them in the right quantities, will help you cut the number of calories you are consuming.

Low Carb

Carbs might be delicious, but they’re also public enemy number one when it comes to losing weight. There are many foods that are high in carbohydrates, including processed foods and foods high in sugar, salt, and fat – and each of those foods is very easily converted into fat that is stored in your body.

One of the easiest ways to ensure that no extra fat is being stored in your body is to make sure you are eating as few carbs as you can.

Common Low-Carb Foods

Similarly to eating low-calorie foods, the trick to eating low-carb foods is to be selective about what foods are in your diet. Eating a green diet or a diet rich in raw foods and whole grains is the simplest way to ensure that you are eating a low-carb diet. It’s also important to stay away from foods that have been refined, particularly “white” grains and sugars.

Common low-carb foods include fish, dairy, cheese, fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds, and chicken. You can combine your low-calorie and low-carb food choices to simplify your food choices.

Is This Diet Program Safe?

Yes. Eating a low-calorie and low-carb diet is safe for you and healthy for your body, as you will be able to obtain whole nutrients that haven’t been processed with extra sugar or fat. The addition of this hormone is also safe, for both women and men, since this hormone naturally occurs in the body.

Who Are Good Candidates?

If you’ve found that your ability to lose the weight you want and shed pounds of fat off your body has come to a halt, then you are likely a good candidate for this diet program. Good candidates include men and women of all ages who desire to lose weight and who are willing to commit to a new diet.
