admin July 31, 2012

The benefits of exercise are innumerable, but Science recently found yet another exciting benefit!

“Exercise helps to alleviate pain related to nerve damage (neuropathic pain) by reducing levels of certain inflammation- promoting factors called cytokines. This supports exercise as a potentially useful non-drug treatment for neuropathic pain. In experiments, exercise reduced abnormal pain responses by 30-50%.”

HCG Targets the Right Kind of Fat

admin July 27, 2012

The human body has three different kinds of fat. These fats are the structural, reserve and the abnormal fat.

The structural fats are the fats that protect and support our body and other vital organs such as the kidneys and internal body parts. Starvation causes these fats to deplete. With help of HCG, it rebuilds the structural body fat while on a VLCD diet.

The reserve fats are the stored nutrients when your body is not getting enough nutrition.

The abnormal fats are fats that don’t have any vital functions to the body. These are the kinds of fats that deposits in the belly, hips, thighs, and upper arms.

HCG drops help target the right kind of fat by unlocking the body’s abnormal fat deposits. HCG balances the mechanism within the brain allowing it to control the distribution of fats. This allows the body to consume its abnormal fat first, using it as the source of energy and nutrition which in turn allows the dieter to reduce his or her usual caloric intake. This then burns the abnormal fats away and the body’s necessary structural and reserve fat are left intact without depleting it rather rebuilding it to make you and your body look healthy and beautiful.

HCG is the fastest and quickest diet plan ever. However, it also needs to be taken seriously and strictly. You should approach the HCG Diet Plan wisely and embrace it patiently. Here are 5 ways to approach HCG effectively:

1. Know what you really want for yourself. Starting HCG is a decision and a commitment. Make sure that when you plan to start a healthy lifestyle you are committed not only to start it but to stick with it to the end.

2. Keep a proper mindset. Having the right mindset will help you go through all the trials and temptations you will meet along the journey.

3. Prepare your body for the next stage. HCG Phase 1, also known as the loading phase, is a preparatory phase for the next step which is the vlcd. Make sure to kick start your metabolism during phase 1 since phase 2 will only allow you to consume a very low calorie diet (500 cal, 800 cal, 1200 cal).

4. Be prepared with the right attitude. You should develop an attitude during phase 1 to make you prepare well for the next two phases. Be prepared to be able to control food cravings and emotional confrontations about food.

HCG Drops Proper Storage

admin July 21, 2012

In the HCG diet plan, many dieters have questions related to its proper storage and shelf life. When HCG drops is properly stored, it can become stale and therefore bad for consumption. Proper storage ensures the product remains effective for the purposes of weight loss for a longer period of time.

download Since our Hcg drops is made up of different proteins and amino acids, if exposed to extreme levels of heat, chemical changes in its composition may take place. It causes the proteins in the product to become denatured; these proteins are sometimes destroyed completely while other proteins naturally bond together on a molecular level. These chemical changes done by heat exposure affects and even nullifies the effectiveness of the HCG products.

It is always recommended to keep your oral HCG drops at room temperature or in a cool yet dry place. During the process of shipping, your HCG drops will be perfectly safe from extreme temperature fluctuations. You can store your drops anywhere at home, be it a cabinet, in your bathroom, on a shelf, as long as it is away from heat sources like a radiator, a fireplace, and sunlight. Try to keep HCG drops away from moisture too.
