The most important step after deciding to undertake the hCG diet is to see a doctor. He or she will evaluate any pre existing conditions, and the meds that you are taking to treat those conditions.

The most important step after deciding to undertake the hCG diet is to see a doctor, either your primary care physician or a doctor that specializes in dealing with dieting patients. The physician will examine you to determine you baseline health, and your body chemistry. He or she will also evaluate any pre existing conditions and the meds that you are taking to treat those conditions. This is an important part of the process because weight loss can affect, usually improve medical conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. Pregnant women are not allowed to take hCG injections

The original protocol established by Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, calls for an intake of only 500 calories a day. The average man or woman needs somewhere between 1500 to 2000 calories a day. This does not mean that the hCG diet is a starvation diet. The idea is to give your body enough energy to convince it to draw nutrition from stored fat cells. The body can draw as much as it needs from this source, absorbing as much as 2000 calories daily. Thereby, keeping the body from stripping the muscles, and bones of needed vitamins and minerals.

The daily intake of 500 calories goes right to work supplying energy to muscles and bones; while your body draws the bulk of its calories from stored fat cells, and the impending result is rapid and significant weight loss. The reports are, average weight loss of 1 to 3 pounds daily, depending upon the patient's condition, activity level, and how much weight they have to lose.

The hCG injections cannot be purchased without a Dr.'s prescription. In fact, Doctor prescribed hCG is the only way that it can be purchased in the States. The food and drug administration has denied the use of hCG in any other form unless it is prescribed by a doctor.

Bottled drops, tablets, even nasal sprays are declared homeopathic supplements, and they have no amount of hCG in them at all. If you are considering drops, tabs, creams, or any of these alternatives, be sure to ask directly the amount of hCG they contain.

The hCG injection are self administered, much in the same way that diabetics give themselves insulin. In fact, the needle is the very same needle. It is small and thin, and just long enough to inject the hormone below the skin. Your physician will cover techniques with you that will make this process relatively painless. The injections are taken once a day, in the morning, over the course of 23 days.

It is normal for patients to experience mild hunger for the first few days, until the body starts drawing nutrients from the stored fat cells. However, once the body starts drawing nutrients into the bloodstream, it is commonly reported among the patients that they feel as if they have to stuff themselves, even to reach their 500-calorie limit.

The completion of the hCG diet, results in a rapid and sizable loss of weight. Patients who have gone through the experience have recognized it as a time period during which they developed new attitudes about food and their overall health. A medically supervised hCG diet is an excellent opportunity for you to change your health and your outlook.
