*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Is the HCG a diet or is it a treatment? The Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a hormone produced by the developing placenta when women become pregnant. As the fetus develops it needs a lot of energy to grow as fast as it does, and the purpose of HCG is to promote the conversion of the mother's fat into energy for the fetus.

It figures, then, that if considered yourself too fat, then if you took a supplement of HCG it would help to burn your excess fat. But does it work that way? Well, luckily it does! It's not a diet as such, in that just as you eat foods to make you lose weight you take HCG diet pills to achieve the same. There are no HCG diet pills: you get shots. Or at least you used to.

You will normally get shots of HCG along with Vitamin B12, because the B12 helps to give your metabolism a boost and to help the HCG convert your fat into glucose and then to energy. Fat is just a form of carbohydrate - a wobbly one - and can be broken down into glucose just the same as cookies and bacon fat.

I mentioned shots above, and that HCG used to be injected along with Vitamin B12. That was in order to get it straight into your blood stream and avoid the digestive system that would destroy it. That is also why you cannot take HCG orally as such, for example in capsules, because it has to be inserted directly into your bloodstream missing out the gastrointestinal tract altogether, even in an enterically coated capsule that resists digestion.

Now, however, it can be taken sublingually. Under your tongue you have some blood vessels very close to the surface. Those with angina take potassium nitrite this way so that it gets to the heart immediately. HCG is now available in bottles so that you can take it under your tongue about 3 times daily.

Taking this with a low calorie diet and moderate exercise should result in fairly rapid weight loss due to effect of the HCG diet on your fat stores. As your fat disappears your weight goes down, and also you fail to replace that fat due to your diet. It is considered by some as being the fastest and safest way of losing weight rapidly. It should not be used routinely, however, but only if you are excessively fat and cannot seem to be able to lose weight. However, Madonna uses it!

The HCG diet offers a different approach to losing weight, though once your pounds have been shed you should try to keep yourself that way. You got fat or overweight for a reason, and unless you change your lifestyle and work top maintain your new low weight, you will simply put it back on again as happens with most people that initially lose eight using a diet.

The HCG diet is not a diet as such, and you should not use it to maintain your new-found figure. That should be done by means of a sensible diet.
