Best Spices for Weight Loss- Zero Belly Spices.

admin February 7, 2015

The best spices for weight loss are those that either directly influence weight loss itself, or that aid in some way with digestion or other supportive factors to aid in shedding those unwanted pounds.

But the VERY best spices for weight loss also taste good! Best selling author David Zinczenko recommends the following list in his book, “Zero Belly Diet: Lose Up to 16 lbs. in 14 Days!” which I shamelessly plug with . But, I have to admit I haven’t read it, so buy at your own risk. It definitely has a snazzy title anyway. But, whether it’s good or not, this list of weight loss spices is outstanding, see what you think. He calls them “Zero Belly Spices.” More

HCG and the 1200 Calorie Diet

admin September 5, 2014

“How does the 1200 calories work and show the same effect as the 500 calorie diet?” was a question recently asked by a customer, here is the response: This diet allows individuals who would normally be restricted to as little as 500 calories a day to take in 1200 calories each day without compromising the superior weight loss. The 1200 diet plan still allows individuals to lose huge amounts of weight in a limited amount of time, without the risk of starving the body. This is something that doctors’ fear can happen on the lower calorie HCG diet, which calls for only 500 calories. Every dieter is unique in every way so we made modifications to the original 500 calorie HCG diet protocol. Some people have very active lifestyle and some just don’t have an active lifestyle, so in order to suit the lifestyle of the dieters we created the right diet plan for them. More

Same Weight Loss on 800-1200 VLCD?

admin April 27, 2012

HCG is accompanied with a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) where normal meals are replaced with a very restricted meal. The typical daily calorie intake is 500 Calories, which, was the original intake in Dr. Simeons protocol. With further experimentation and study a modification of this very low calorie has been made.

Generally exercise isn’t recommended while a person is on a 500 VLCD as the calories consumed aren’t sufficient to support it. However, with the 800-1200 calorie diet, you can maintain a more active lifestyle while on HCG. We only recommend light exercises such as walking, stretching and yoga and for those with an excessive amount of weight to lose, swimming is also allowed but should only be done in small increments.

So for those who have asked if the same weight loss is achievable using the 800 and 1200 VLCD, the answer is yes. Exercise is the most important thing to consider when choosing the calorie intake for your diet.

See a collection of real testimonials, many of which used 800 or 1200 calorie protocols, here.

Higher Calorie HCG Diet Tips

admin November 15, 2011

Lots of people are interested in the new higher calorie hcg diet option we have been talking about. We put extensive research and time into this, and now have a lot of history and feedback from satisfied customers, and can confidently say that the 800 and 1200 calorie options are the best.

Here are some tips that will help you lose 1-2 pounds a day, while not starving yourself on the old fashioned 500 calorie diet, that simply doesn’t have enough protein in it to sustain muscle mass:

1. Don’t exceed 1,800 calories, and if you can do OK on less, do it. As mentioned, we highly recommend our 800 and 1200 calorie protocols, but understand that some people are just fine losing half a pound a day if they get to eat more calories. So, do 800, 1200, or if you just can’t mentally survive on that, don’t exceed 1800, and you will still lose more weight than on any traditional diet.

2. Stay on the HCG longer. In the past, we recommended never exceeding 40 days on HCG EZ Drops. But that’s on a 500 calorie diet. When taking in more calories, you can go longer, as much as 120 days according to Dr. Koonts. Of course, for that period of time you have to ensure you are getting enough calories and nutrients, be smart about it!

3. Avoid fat. Remember, the main point is to reset the Hypothalamus, which controls your bodies fat levels. Make sure as you increase the calories, that you don’t do it with fatty foods!

4. Add a protein shake or two. This is a simple way to get those extra calories, and is also easy and convenient. Again, just make sure the fat content of your shake is low.

5. Increase portion sizes. Eating from the approved foods list, and simply doubling the size of portions is an easy way to increase the calories.

6. Order lots of product. As you can see on our home page, the price of HCG EZ Drops drops when you buy in bulk. So make sure and order enough to last for the longer period of time necessary.

Most diets call for about 2 pounds of weight loss per week, and they are often expensive. This new method of HCG weight loss is inexpensive, but still promises faster weight loss than most other programs.

As always, feel free to call or e-mail if you have questions!
