Benefits of HCG

HCG is a natural hormone produced in the body. It is considered a pregnancy hormone as it is produced in more quantities during the pregnancy period of women. The main function of the hormone is to metabolize fat and use it as energy for the mother and fetus. This same mechanism is being used for effective weight loss purposes, but only a very small HCG amount is being used in the process.


The HCG hormone could be taken as a supplement and it is available in tablets and capsules. The HCG hormone is supposed to metabolize fat and convert it into energy with more speed than normal conditions. In order to take advantage of this quality in weight loss, a low calorie diet is being used. This diet is called the HCG diet plan. With this diet the body would get a low amount of calorie per meal and it would start to metabolize the stored fat, in order to produce the remaining energy that is needed to maintain the body functions and physical activity. This is how HCG is helpful in losing excess body weight fast, which is one of the main benefits of HCG.  


In addition to helping people to lose weight fast, there are so many other benefits of HCG. The body sculpting feature is another important benefit of HCG. This hormone will help to tone areas of the body that have excess fat. It would help to lose fat around the stomach area and maintain a flat tummy. The double chin is another area, where HCG would help to get rid of. Fat that is stored on the face, hands and legs are easily reduced with HCG, allowing you to tine these areas of the body effectively.


People who are taking HCG are supposed to consume the HCG diet, which is around 500 calories per day. If not for the HCG component, a diet this low in calorie could result in a loss of muscle mass. But, consuming this low calorie diet with the HCG supplement does not result in you losing muscle mass. So, you will not be losing muscle mass and this is another benefit of HCG. In fact, the hormone will reduce your appetite, which will help you to stick to the 500 calorie diet.


HCG also helps to normalize the cholesterol levels of people who are on the HCG diet. As per the latest research, it also helps to normalize the functions of the thyroid gland and balance the hormones. It has a positive impact on the adrenaline gland too.


Other benefits of taking HCG are the emotional aspects of it. This hormone would help people to feel better and have a more peaceful sleep during nighttime. It would enhance the mood of people, who are taking it. This feeling better could be due to the loss of excess fat of the body and a sound sleep.


The above mentioned are the benefits of HCG hormone and it could be taken as a dietary supplement too.
