HCG FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is it safe to use HCG Detox?
Yes. Although it has not yet been approved through the FDA for weight loss, HCG is an all natural hormone that has been approved by the FDA for other medical purposes. HCG is safe for both men and women.
Where is the HCG Detox manufactured?
All our HCG Detox products are manufactured in the United States. We constantly make sure that the products that we sell are of the highest quality that our clients deserve.
Homeopathic HCG Detox is made under FDA Regulations and is registered with the FDA with assigned National Drug Code (NDC).
The manufacturing facility is a federally- and state-registered pharmaceutical laboratory. Regular inspections by the FDA ensure compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) and the Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs) for your safety.
I have a rumbling feeling in my stomach.
Your stomach still needs to shrink. When weighing yourself every day you will see spectacular results, which will maximize your motivation. It will ensure that you conquer the empty feeling. Do not eat to eliminate that feeling. Drink some water, exercise, and the empty feeling will disappear.
How do I prepare my food?
You may prepare food using the grill, broiler, oven, or a nonstick pan on the stove, as long as no fat, oil, margarine or butter is used in the preparation. The visible fat on meat should be removed without touching the meat with your hands (use a fork or wear gloves).
Can I eat the same diet without using HCG Detox and get the same result?
We all know that people who follow a strict diet will lose weight. These people will lose muscle tissue and essential fats, but they will be stuck with abnormal fats as the body believes it is in "survival mode". They will feel very uncomfortable and very hungry. When they stop dieting they will soon regain the weight they lost and add a few extra pounds to the weight, just to make sure that the next "survival situation" is going to be easier. Those who follow the diet with the HCG Detox will lose more weight, will not feel uncomfortable, will not be hungry and will lose fat in their difficult areas. They will not lose muscle tissue and essential fats, and will no longer gain weight after following the diet with a successful stabilization period.
I am still hungry.
You may feel hungry in the first week. This happens in people whose fat breakdown process is still at a standstill. Once this process gets going, you will no longer feel hungry. So hang in there and eat an extra apple if necessary. Find a distraction. Exercise, walk, or read a book. Drink a lot of water or drink low sodium vegetable broth.
I am experiencing headaches, dizziness and sweating.
These symptoms may occur particularly when starting the HCG weight loss therapy. They are caused by low blood sugar levels. The body is not breaking down glycogen quickly enough, as a result of which blood sugar levels are not replenished on time. You need to "help" your body by distributing your diet over the day. If this does not have the desired effect, you may eat an extra slice of smoked turkey, crab, lobster, a breadstick or an apple. We also recommend that you drink spring water or alkalinized water. A balanced distribution of the diet is essential in order to prevent the chance of excessively low blood sugar levels. If you have an unbalanced sugar metabolism, make sure you always have an apple or breadstick with you, especially in the car. Headaches are mainly caused by waste products not being broken down quickly enough by the liver. We recommend that you drink lemon balm tea, dandelion fruit tea, or lemon water, or take headache medicine. This will usually alleviate the symptoms quickly.
I feel constipated
If you feel constipated, we recommend that you drink more water or try Smooth Move tea. If you already have consumed 3 liters of water, we recommend that you take Triphala, which is used for rejuvenation and detoxification. It supports healthy elimination, digestion and weight management. It can be found on our website www.3artshealing.com. Eating a lot of leafy green vegetables can also help.
Why is tap water not preferred?
Chlorine is a highly efficient disinfectant, and it is added to public water supplies to kill disease-causing bacteria that the water or its transport pipes might contain. However research shows that chlorine causes health issues and is therefore not preferred. We strongly recommend spring water and alkalinized water.
I am not losing weight. What is happening?
The weight registered by the scale is determined by two processes not necessarily synchronized under the influence of HCG Detox. Fat is being extracted from the cells, in which it is stored in the fatty tissue. When these cells are empty and therefore serve no purpose, the body breaks down the cellular structure and absorbs it, but breaking up of useless cells, connective tissue, blood vessels, etc., may lag behind the process of fat-extraction. When this happens the body appears to replace some of the extracted fat with water which is retained for this purpose. As water is heavier than fat the scales may show no loss of weight, although sufficient fat has actually been consumed to make up for the deficit in the 500-Calorie diet. When such tissue is finally broken down, the water is liberated and there is a sudden flood of urine and a marked loss of weight.
A. A plateau is often reached in the middle of the regimen and you may not lose any weight for a few days, and then you will rapidly lose so much weight that you return to the normal average weight loss. The body has to learn to let go and during this period you are most likely experiencing water retention.
B. During ovulation and menstruation, you will generally retain more liquids. Drink more water.
C. Intense physical exertion can cause the body to gain weight because it needs more moisture due to exertion.
D. Measure your body and you will be able to see your progress even if your weight does not change.
E. Exercising is very important; however, do it in moderation and do not push yourself anywhere near your limit.
F. Excessive use of salt will often cause water retention.
G. Severe sunburn can cause an increase in weight, because the body retains moisture.
What can I do to kick-start the weight loss again?
If you have not lost any weight for 2-3 days in a row, you can choose to have an apple day. The diet is 5 to 6 apples, starting with 1 apple at lunch and continuing until just before lunch of the following day. During an apple day no other food or liquids except plain water are allowed. The apple day produces a gratifying loss of weight on the following day, primarily due to the elimination of water. Therefore only drink just enough to satisfy an uncomfortable thirst if eating an apple still leaves you thirsty.
I have started gaining weight again since the regime.
It is extremely important that you weigh yourself every day so you can take immediate action in case your weight has increased by more than 1 kilogram / 2.2 pounds from the weight on your last day of Stage I. Implement an apple day, fruit day or steak day on the same day as the weight gain. Remember to continue to drink plenty of water.
Can I extend the HCG regime?
If you wish to continue on the HCG Detox Regime, the therapy can be extended up to a maximum of 40 days. We do not allow patients to lose more than 33 lbs. (15 Kg.) at a time. The treatment is stopped when either 33 lbs. have been lost or after 40 days of HCG Detox. It should not be extended any longer than that, as the body will become immune to the HCG. If you do wish to extend the regime even further, you should take a 5 to 6 week break before repeating the regime.
I have reached my target weight. May I discontinue the regime?
If you have reached your target weight, you can modify the regime by increasing the number of calories from 500 to between 800 to 1000 calories, but you should not stop halfway through. If you do stop before completing the regime, you are more likely to regain the weight you have lost.
I need to stop the HCG Detox Regime for a few days. What should I do?
We encourage you to adapt your schedule to the regime before you begin the diet. If you need to discontinue the regime, please find your 3 Arts Healing HCG Calendar and proceed on DAY 24.
HCG Detox is moving out of your body. It takes 3 days so you will follow the 500 calorie diet for another 3 days. Follow up with the Stage II - stabilization period.
