hCG Weight Loss Program

British endocrinologist A.T.W. Simeons’ ultra-low-calorie weight-loss diet came about when Simeons, studying pregnant women in India on calorie-deficient diets, and “fat boys” with pituitary problems treated with low-dose hCG, discovered that both lost fat rather than lean tissue. He hypothesied that the hypothalamus was being stimulated by hCG for the protection of the fetus in the case of the pregnant women, then used hCG in his treatment of overweight boys, to much success.

Simeons practiced at Salvator Mundi International Hospital in Italy for 16 years, perfecting his weight loss theory of daily hCG injections in low doses combined with an ultra-low-calorie diet to encourage the loss of fat with no attendant muscle tissue loss. In that time he successfully treated over 10,000 patients, many of whom were royalty or wealthy enough to spend 40 days min his clinic to complete his treatment.

Over the years, other doctors studied Dr. Simeon’s approach, and it spread throughout Europe, with the same success in weight loss as that seen by Dr. Simeons patients.

The difference they discovered was that they were losing fat. Not just weight.

They kept the lean muscle mass and lost FAT. We think of fat as fat, with no differentiation in type or context, but there is a difference in the fats in our bodies as there is in the fats that we eat (think olive oil and butter. Quite different.) The problem mwith thinking of fat as fat, without noting the difference is that with most diets we don’t get rid of the fat we need to be rid of, that which is mobilized in starvation and pregnancy.

Instead we lose the fat that protects our internal organs, structural fat, or our reserve fuel which we use between meals to keep going til mwe eat, but we don’t get rid of the “starvation-fuel fat”.

In women, that ends up in the abdominal area and thighs. In men, it goes to chest and belly. And in both sexes, it is hard to be rid of. Normal weight loss programs don’t address it.

Dr. Simeons recognizesd that hCG encourages the body to burn this fat. His theory was vthat it reset the hypothalmus gland, and parts of your brain that regulate some hormones, blood sugar metabolism, blood pressure, and other key body functions.

With HCG, weight loss is up to a pound a day, and patients have found it easy to stick to the diet that resets the hypothalamus. The ability to ignore cravings seems to be greatly benefited by the administration of hCG.
