<p>Most of the nutrient i.e. Classified into the low to moderate degree include complete food grain products, fresh yields, veggies, legumes, paired with lean protein and fit fat sources. The thought of granting yourself to consume an unmodified amount of these types of fit fare upgrades not alone a mental experiencing of well-being but as well doesn&#8217;t need you to calculate kilocalories or abide by complex meal programs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most crucial phases a person must complete with the HCG diet is known as the VLCD or Very Low Calorie Diet. The VLCD prescribes that the participant consumes no more than 500 calories daily. The diet period is typically 40 days and lasts during the period that the participant is taking HCG injections or sub-lingual drops. Besides experiencing hunger (which is harmless), a significant risk of the VLCD is not getting the vitamins and nutrients needed in order to sustain healthy metabolism. Here are some recommendations for foods allowed on the VLCD that contain high nutrients and can help with HCG diets.</p>
<p>You can find calcium in vegetables like broccoli. Calcium is essential for healthy bones and not getting enough of it could put them at risk of breakage. The mineral is also beneficial for strong teeth and for the immune system. Broccoli is allowed on the HCG diet and instructions are to consume no more than 100 grams at either lunch or dinner. Other vegetables that are good sources of calcium include peas, spinach, asparagus, and cauliflower. <span id="more-524"></span></p>
<p>White fish is beneficial for muscle development and the cardiovascular system. This is prescribed as one of the protein sources in phase II of the VLCD. White fish includes cod, whiting, and sole. The reason white fish is so beneficial is that it is very low in saturated fats while being high in the polyunsaturated fatty acid Omega-3. Omega-3 has been proven to be beneficial for the cardiovascular system which can counteract the risk of blood clotting—a risk that has been identified with the HCG diet. You can have one 100 gram serving of white fish at any one of the two meals (lunch or dinner). </p>
<p>Shellfish is also allowed on the HCG diet. Besides being a source of protein, shellfish is a great source of iron. In fact, 100 grams of some shellfish (the recommended protein serving for one HCG phase II VLCD meal) will give you the recommended daily allowance for iron which is very important to women’s health. Shellfish also is high in zinc which is another important mineral that helps to boost your immune system and promotes brain functions. Shellfish allowed on the HCG diet include crab, shrimp, crawfish, lobster, and prawns. </p>
<p>Peppers are a great way to spice up your recipes and get the vitamins you need. When food is bland, there is a tendency to want to eat more because you have a sensation that you didn’t eat enough. Red peppers like Cayenne add flavor plus spice allowing you to savor each bite and eat more slowly. Consider also that Cayenne peppers are loaded with vitamins to include A, C, E, and K. It has the highest percentage in vitamin A which is beneficial for the eyesight and fighting against cancer.</p>
<p>The allowed fruits provide additional benefits. They also help to take away the craving you more than likely will have for sweets. Allowed fruits are apples, strawberries, one-half of a grapefruit, and oranges. The HCG diet protocol prescribes 2 fruits per day with at least a six-hour interval between eating. Apples with the peel provide an excellent source of fiber which are good for providing the bulk you need to alleviate the constipation that could occur with this diet. Strawberries provide a rich source of antioxidants which helps in the prevention of cancer. Of course all of them provide vitamin C which helps strengthen the immune system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>HCG stands for Human Chorio Gonadotropin and it is a pregnancy hormone. An HCG diet is a combination of taking shots or sub-lingual drops of the hormone and maintaining a 500-per day diet. Supporters of the diet claim that it helps them lose anywhere from a quarter to just over one kilogram per day if it is followed correctly. </p>
<p>Participants take an injection of HCG. The HCG hormone occurs naturally in the urine of pregnant women. It can be made synthetically as well. Participants in the diet take daily injections of HCG and stop once the targeted weight is reached. In the United States, HCG injections have been the topic of controversy because they were not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Therefore it will be difficult to get a doctor to prescribe HCG injections as a weight-loss treatment. In the United States, you can mail order HCG injection kits however in states like Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, New Hampshire, and New York you need a doctor’s prescription for any order over 10 syringes. Some states in the U.S. also do not allow syringes to be mail ordered. The best advice is to always check the local laws of your jurisdiction.<br />
<span id="more-522"></span><br />
There is a sublingual administration method available when injections cannot be taken. This involves placing a few drops of the pre-mixed HCG solution under the tongue to be absorbed into the body. Since HCG is a protein, if it were taken orally, the digestive system would just absorb it as a food. By placing the drops under the tongue, the mucous membrane absorbs the HCG directly. </p>
<p>The HCG shots or sublingual drops affect the hypothalamus gland so that stored fat is metabolized faster. The hypothalamus is part of the brain and is responsible for maintaining stability in many body systems. For example, one of its functions is to regulate pulse. Another of its functions is to control the appetite and body weight which includes instructions to metabolize stored fat. Metabolizing (converting to energy) stored fat is one of the greatest challenges to effective weight loss.</p>
<p>Dieters are restricted to 500 calories a day in the HCG diet. 500 calories per day is not much so it is important that the calories consumed count for good health and nutrition. The idea is to keep the calorie intake low which will also prompt your system to metabolize stored fat. So with a combination of the HCG shots and low-calorie diet, weight loss can be quite rapid. </p>
<p>A concern among dieters is that they will be hungry on the low-calorie plan. And many know that the danger of being hungry is binging at the next meal. But many have said that the HCG tends to decrease their appetite so that 500 calories satisfies them. They also report that the first few days on the HCG diet are the hardest as far as appetite is concerned but eventually it does decrease. There are those who have also reported having difficulty maintaining this low-calorie diet yet still lost weight (at a slower, steady rate) while taking HCG injections.</p>
