Designed for aggressive dieters who want to lose weight fast, the HCG diet has two parts. The first is a specially-formulated diet drop that helps a dieter burn calories from fat instead of food. The second is a 500-calorie-a-day diet intended to maximize the amount of stored fat the body consumes.
The actual value of the HCG diet drops has been contested, and the FDA has begun to limit sales by shutting down suppliers that were making excessive claims about the diet drops' effect. However, remaining suppliers point to the fact that regulators targeted the vendors who exaggerated the effects of the diet, and not the HCG diet itself.
The Very Low Calorie diet was developed by Dr. Simeon, the creator of the HCG diet drops. Designed to put the body into starvation mode, the Very Low Calorie diet plan forces the body to burn stored fat because food calories are not available. HCG diet materials stress the importance of sticking to this diet. Food is consumed only to ease the dieter's urges, not as the primary source of sustenance.
During breakfast, the diet plan recommends tea or coffee with one tablespoonful of milk. This is all the milk that is allowed during a 24-hour period. Sweeteners, especially artificial sweeteners like saccharine or herbs like stevia, may be added to the coffee or tea.
The diet plan recommends 100 raw grams of very lean protein at lunch. Meats such as lobster, chicken breast, white fish, shrimp, veal, or very lean beef qualify as acceptable sources of protein. Before cooking, any fat on the 100-gram portion should be cut away, and no additional fats should be added during cooking. Frying the protein in oil, even "healthy" oils such as olive oil, is not permitted. The meat should be prepared by grilling or boiling. Lunch can also include one kind of vegetable and fruit, such as a handful of strawberries, half a grapefruit, or one apple.
The same rules that apply to lunch also apply to dinner. The vegetable choice may include spinach, green salad, beet greens, tomato, onion, cabbage, asparagus, cucumber, chicory, asparagus, fennel, celery, red radishes, or chard.
It may seem that a diet this restrictive would afford few options for flavor, but HCG dieters have begun to create and share recipes, many of which are available online. The diet drops, which can be ordered from a supplier, come in a kit that also includes a detailed explanation of the Very Low Calorie diet plan.
Of course, weight loss is an issue of health, not only cosmetic results, and so it is wise to consult a doctor before beginning any aggressive dieting regimen, including the HCG diet. A doctor's guidance can help to ensure that the outcome of an extreme diet is what the dieter wants and needs, while also protecting vital aspects of health.
