This controversial diet is under scrutiny because it pairs the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) with a restrictive 500 calorie a day meal plan to help dieters lose weight.
The controversial new diet using human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in combination with a highly caloric restrictive diet may help patients lose a large amount of weight in a short period of time.
A combination of a hormone (HCG) secreted by pregnant women plus an extremely restrictive diet has made the HCG diet one of the hottest and controversial diets available today.
Many dieters have lost a lot of weight and are big fans of the hCG diet, but many physicians ask if it's safe.
