As you probably already know, the main ingredient of the HCG weight loss plan is the HCG, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, hormone.
Also, as you probably know, the hormone was discovered in pregnant women. So as we look into whether or not we want this to be our weight loss solution we need to ask the question, how is it produced?
Injections of Hormone to Lose Weight, Good or Bad Idea?
Many detractors and casual informants of HCG have stated that the product is manufactured from the urine of pregnant women. Of course, any truth of this would be hidden from the general public by HCG suppliers to avoid any controversy. And in fact hcgdietinfo.com claims adamantly that this is not true.
But a further look into other spheres, namely steroid users who use HCG to increase their testosterone, has shown that it is understood that the hormone is excreted from the urine as it passes uncontaminated in a pregnant women’s blood through the kidneys.
Truth be told, even if it were true, how would we find out? On the other side of the coin we have read and been told that production of HCG in the United States is done in a FDA registered lab and that it has been prepared according to the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia.
Further research shows that the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia is a book of conditions and standards that must be met when producing homeopathic products. Of course, we have no idea if those standards include excreting from urine.
General research of the subject still leaves questions, so when it comes to whether or not you wish to use or continue to use HCG a more thorough search with a physician or supplier would need to be done.
