Since 2010, we have successfully helped patients to safely lose and maintain their weight loss. We follow the original Dr. Simeons hCG protocol from 1954. This protocol uses a natural hormone found in the body called human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) to accelerate fat mobilization from certain areas of the body when combined with a very low-calorie diet (VLCD).

The hCG hormone has the ability to access the body’s fat stores so that it can be used as fuel to power daily bodily functions. This allows the patients to maintain their muscle mass during weight loss.

hCG may also help to redistribute the body’s fat deposits, particularly targeting the abdomen, buttocks, upper thighs, neck, and face. It has also been suggested that hCG plays a role in establishing a new weight “set point” for the body, making one less likely to return to one’s previous weight. There have been no reported adverse side effects to this diet. Both men and women can benefit from this weight loss protocol.

No other weight loss program addresses and corrects low metabolism, intense and constant hunger, or emotional eating and food cravings. The hCG program’s goal is to reset your metabolism to a normal level and eliminate the food cravings that lead to obesity.

Weight Loss Expectations:

This will vary and will depend on your gender and your individual metabolism. Men generally lose more weight than women. It is possible to lose 20-25lbs with a 26-day protocol, but it is common for people to average 0.5 to 0.75 lb/day loss.

Our medical weight loss program includes:

• Baseline laboratory screening exam.
• Pharmaceutical-grade hCG injections.
• hCG protocol patient guidebook and educational materials.
• Initial and maintenance consultations with the hCG provider.
• Weekly weigh-in appointments and vitamin B-12 injections.
