Any change of opinion on the HCG Diet, or is it still a no?
I'm only just now hearing of this diet and thought it sounded promising.


I started TRT earlier this year, and my prescription includes HCG, which I have not been using.
Being that I have a surplus of HCG, I was considering giving the diet a shot.

Pretty sure it’s the 500 daily calorie part of the diet that causes the weight loss and absolutely nothing to do with HCG.

Forget it.

^ The clinic told me the HCG was optional, and I only needed to take it if I planned on having kids.
My wife and I are in our 50s, and she had a hysterectomy years ago.

If there are other advantages to the HCG, I will take it. Otherwise, I'll save it back in case I ever decide to blast or come off the TRT.

Jin is correct... HCG diet is 500 calories a day and they claim the HCG made you lose weight...well ANYONE taking 500 cals a day for extended periods will lose

weight...Id bet majority or the weight is muscle thats loss too.

This diet has been tested and tested and tested and proved to be bunk. Some genius finally figured out it wasnt the HCG causing weight loss it was your body

starving and eating itself.

Now think about this...I learned this when getting certified for Nutritionist after my personal trainer cerification. If you have a steak that has a lot of good

meat(muscle) and fat what are you going to eat first?

When in such a drastic calorie deficit the body does the same thing...starts with the good stuff first (muscle).

Try the diet with or without HCG and I bet you end up skinny fat.

I'm completely pulling this outta my ass but isn't the HCG supposed to counteract some of the effect of such a hypocaloric diet? I just use it to keep my balls alive but I thought that was it's purpose on that diet.

Boy I missed out on this conversation.
HCG diet is a crock of bullshit.
I had a friend several months back telling me how his girlfriend and her friend were on the HCG diet, eating only 500 calories a day. And they were getting raped, paying something like $300 for only 1,000 iu's of hcg.
Bahahaaa...

Btw..I quit my job and I am now selling hcg diets. Lol

Here, take this placebo and eat 500 calories a day. You’ll lose weight!

After hearing about the HCG diet of course I did research and none of the claims have been scientifically proven. Anyone who wants to improve themselves should look at all the facts, research and data before putting it into their body. I mean when scholarly sources say there is not evidence and there are no legitimate peer reviewed articles I call bs on the claims of this so called diet 🤷🏽‍♀️

Psuedo science isn’t science it’s lies
