Should You Use Dietary Supplements When on the HCG Diet?

September 19, 2016 By Connie Odom

Metro MediSpa HCG DietEveryone wants to have that perfect body and show off their abs and slim thighs. Who wouldn’t desire to look drop dead gorgeous?  There are a variety of diets which promise to help you gain that perfect figure and one of the most successful diets is the HCG Diet.

What is the HCG Diet?

HCG is not just a diet plan; it involves a physician’s oversight on a regular basis. Why? HCG Diet is all about decreasing your calorie intake and injections of HCG (which are prescribed by a doctor).

So what is HCG? HCG is an abbreviation for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin; this is a hormone which is produced during pregnancy. However, it is used by people who wish to lose weight as it decreases all sorts of food cravings, thus aiding in weight loss.

Major Components of the Diet

The core and essential elements of the HCG diet are twofold:

  • A HCG injection
  • 800 calorie daily diet

The HCG injection is considered as nothing less than bliss for all those people who opt for this diet plan as it diminishes the side effects which come along with this low-calorie diet program. As your calorie intake decreases, you are likely to feel hungry often. However, to kill that feeling, the HCG injection is essential. It extinguishes your food cravings, thus helping you to lose weight incredibly fast.

Should You Consider Dietary Supplements?

With a low-calorie diet such as HCG, it is important to maintain all nutrients which may be difficult with low food intake, so nutritional supplements are recommended.  Once your weight loss goals are realized, supplements may be reduced once food intake is normalized.  Here are some of the best supplements for your HCG diet program:

  • Garcinia Cambogia: this supplement blocks your body’s ability to make fat
  • Digestive Enzyme Complex: it helps the body break down and digest food
  • Apple Cider Vinegar: may turn on certain genes involved in breaking down fats
  • Organic Coconut Oil: taking coconut oil three times a day might reduce waist size after 1-6 weeks of use
  • Papaya Enzyme: a rich  source of valuable proteolytic enzymes that can significantly aid in the digestive process

Note:  The FDA does not regulate dietary supplements.  Dietary supplements may contain natural or chemical products that could interact with prescribed medications.  For your safety always discuss supplements with your physician before taking them.
