HCG DIet

HCG works to mobilize stored fat for utilization by the body when there is a significant decrease in caloric intake. For weight loss, we use a very low-calorie diet to trigger the HCG to help rid the body of fat. As the body uses fats as its prime energy supply, the circulating fat (called ketones) spill into the urine and get flushed down the toilet. This means that unlike other diets, you don’t have to burn every fat calorie that is in your body. This makes weight loss much faster! It is common for a patient to lose 15-30 lbs a month!  

Because HCG mobilizes fat and makes it available to the body as an energy source, it naturally reduces your appetite. So even though you are taking in fewer calories, your body can access the energy you have stored in fat cells. After about 2-3 days, most patients notice a significant decrease in their appetite. Overall, most people have plenty of energy and feel good while on the program.   

A very low-calorie diet alone (without HCG) will decrease your metabolism greatly (“starvation mode”) and cause you to regain weight rapidly when returning to a normal diet. Many people who have been yo-yo dieters have already ruined their metabolism, with their bodies in chronic “starvation mode”. Using true U.S. pharmaceutical grade HCG will protect your body’s metabolism and keep you from going into a “starvation mode”. A month on true HCG will restore normal metabolism in patients! This helps the body not to regain weight when transitioning into a normal diet.  

It is illegal to buy or sell pharmaceutical grade HCG in the US without a doctor’s prescription. Counterfeit products, such as “homeopathic HCG” and foreign-made HCG, usually made in India and sold to internet dealers can be dangerous to your health. Many contain no HCG at all. If they do contain HCG, it is low dose and completely variable without any standards for purity and contaminants. While anyone will lose some weight on a very low-calorie diet with or without HCG, if you do not use real HCG in normal dosage, your metabolism will be ruined and you will have a great tendency to regain any weight lost when you resume normal eating. Avé uses only medical grade HCG purchased at a licensed pharmacy in the US with a standardized dosage. Secondly, there is a reason this diet should be medically managed – as you lose weight, care must be taken to watch your body’s reaction such as blood pressure, blood sugar, and potassium level and thyroid level to name a few. Medications may need to be adjusted. This is why this diet is not available over the counter!
