A General Outlook On The Use Of Liquid HCG Diet

By Claudine MacDonald


Use of liquid hCG diet is rapidly becoming a method of choice for people in need of losing some weight. Discovered about three decades ago, this method was at first looked down upon to be inferior to the use of injections until just recently when it was shown to be as equally effective. There has been an increase in shifting of preference to the liquid and oral form because it is convenient to use and less painful.

The name hCG means human chorionic gonadotrophic hormone, it is a hormone which is often produced by during pregnancy by women. The levels of this hormone usually rise steadily in the first weeks of pregnancy up to around the 12th week after which it plateaus and then decreases again. It is usually detected in urine and is used as an indicator for pregnancy and thus a pregnancy test. It can also be used in identification of birth defects in children before birth.

One other very important function of this hormone is that it is very important in ensuring that the developing fetus has adequate supply of nutrients and calories. It does this by acting on the brain centers in the hypothalamus causing it to stimulate breakdown of all abnormal and excess fat that may be deposited in different body areas like the hips and buttocks.

Combining this action with a low calorie diet this facilitates loss of weight. Considering that the hormone only targets fat deposits that are exaggerated or abnormal, the individual is able to maintain normal fat tissues therefore preventing skin sagging. It therefore helps both to reshape the body and to produce weight loss.

The liquid formation most of the time has two different components. A liquid serum part and then the hormone powder part; these two parts must then be mixed appropriately to come up with a mixture that can then be effective for weight reduction. Some new preparations have been mixed from the manufacturing process and do not require this individual processing though this makes them very expensive.

The liquid formulation is similar to that of the injection in achieving their function. The recommendation is to take 4 drops per day using the sublingual route where the drops are place under the tongue where absorption is highest. It is taken for 21 continuous days and is estimated that around one pound of body weight will be lost. It is usually supported by a 500 calorie diet for best results.

This method is much easier to use both for the administrator and the user. There is no need for needles and expertise of delivery and the process is less painful. The dosage can also easily be divided into a morning 2 drop treatment and then another 2 drops to complete the 4 daily drops in the evening.

The costs of a liquid hCG diet is relatively cheaper than it is for the one where injections are needed. There are also lesser side effects and complications that are related to administering this form such as painful muscle cramping. Lastly a prescription for use from medical specialists is not necessary with this type of formulation.
