any one have Hcg diet info

[prank]

I'LL JUMP RITE IN
I'v been listening to some pod-cast in my car to and from work.
some guys talking about HCG diet BUT he never gives any real advice
as Injections or drops or dosage he just rambles on about how his diet is
different then the others out there and food to eat. Anyway any one have any info on this any protocols can a man even do this HCG if not on aas will it shut down your own HCG production. OH and only 500 or 600 Cal's a day & low low carbs

I believe that it will shut you down.

And also if you eat only 500 cals a day of course you will lose weight even without hcg.

Why dont you go with the regular way of deficit from your calories consumption?

I've heard about this for women,, but not men.

Yeah HCG diet works well for women, not for men. My gf has done it a couple times. I don't agree with the severe calorie restriction, however the point of HCG is to prevent the loss of muscle for women with that much of a caloric deficit. It works well for specific dropping fat, not muscle, and even reducing cellulite if someone has it. To follow it to the full extent women aren't even supposed to wear make up, because of the oils in it. My gf didn't follow that part.

Do a google search for "Does the HCG Diet work for men" and you'll find some info and videos.

HCG also tells the female body it is not hungry when it most certainly is. This is to prevent the body from fighting itself when the child is consuming the nutrients originally meant for the mother. This is why it is only created in women when they are pregnant.

I would stay far away from such super restricted calorie diets...too much chance for bodily harm. But yeah, like they said, it does not work for men.

That's weird because I know that HCG does absolutely nothing for fat loss in BOTH men & women:

The effect of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in the treatment of obesity by means of the Simeons therapy: a criteria-based meta-analysis. - PubMed - NCBI

That is a meta-analysis looking at ALL the available data on HCG use for fat loss, and look at this for a conclusion:

"We conclude that there is no scientific evidence that HCG is effective in the treatment of obesity; it does not bring about weight-loss of fat-redistribution, nor does it reduce hunger or induce a feeling of well-being."

When a guy tells you HCG causes fat loss but he needs you to eat only 500cals per day for it to work AND the diet is somehow "different from anything else out there" - you should use your nose and smell the bullshit

Couldn't agree more. hCG diet is fucking stupid.

Not to mention I've actually seen a relative pay a lot of money for "oral hCG" (note- not sublingual, but oral) attempting to do this stupid diet. It's more a scam than anything. And at 500cals it get's pretty difficult for even women to get in enough nutrients.

That'll be a hundred bucks for a 1ml vial of Bac water then!

Thanks For all your Input GUYS
I'm not going to try this I was just curious. I'm on a calorie deficit of only 2,025 cals a day
for the spring trim down and I'm hungry all the time now. I cant imagine eating only 500 cals a day

About the HCG Diet

Small doses of HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) given to overweight people, regardless of gender, decreased their appetite and made them lose inches specifically around their buttocks, stomach, hips and thighs.

No it doesn't. This is easily one of the biggest loads of horseshit on the Internet. Zilla posted the links to actual studies debunking this quackery.

FYI: The use of HCG for dieting has been banned by the FDA for almost 40 years! I don't know how or why this load of crap keeps resurfacing, but it's almost as annoying as the old myth that creatine + arginine + boron + plant sterols = anabolic androgenic steroids through some form of magic.

HUSH! I have my wife almost convinced that since I am injecting HCG, she can go on the HCG diet through the oral method.
