La Nueva Dieta HCG
Me gustaría introducir un nuevo programa de pérdida de peso que no involucra cirugía, o privarse de comer, ni programas de ejercicios exagerados, ni medicamentos peligrosos, ni comida precocinada. No se siente cansado, hambriento, o gruñón así como se siente en la mayoría de las dietas. <br><br>Aunque la dieta HCG ha estado recibiendo mucha atención últimamente, en realidad no es un concepto nuevo. De hecho, el uso de HCG para la pérdida de peso fue reportado por primera vez por el médico británico, el Dr. A.T.W. Simeons en 1954. El Dr. Simeons estaba trabajando en Roma, y descubrieron que pequeñas dosis de HCG dada a las personas con sobrepeso (hombres y mujeres) redujo el apetito, hizo perder pulgadas específicamente alrededor de sus caderas, muslos, glúteos y estómago. <br><br>El Dr. Simeons quedó impresionado por el HCG, ya que podría ser combinado con una dieta baja en calorías sin causar los mismos efectos secundarios comúnmente asociados con dietas bajas en calorías. Por ejemplo, el Dr. Simeons notó que sus pacientes usando HCG podrían reducir drásticamente su ingesta calórica sin experimentar irritabilidad, dolores de hambre, dolor de cabeza o debilidad.<br><br>El Nuevo Plan HCG por el Dr. Lipman es un programa moderno de pérdida de peso que se integra a lo más básico de la dieta original con resultados actuales de estudios médicos para brindar un sistema clínicamente probado, para quemar grasa rápidamente y seguir manteniendo la masa muscular magra y proteger de la deficiencia de proteínas. <br><br>El programa es supervisado por un doctor y es básicamente una dieta baja en calorías junto con pequeñas dosis de la hormona llamada HCG (Gonadotropina Coriónica Humana- HCG por sus siglas en inglés)

New Pounds and Inches
The HCG diet has caught the attention of most overweight Americans as it promises to help the dieter lose a pound a day without hunger or cravings and without a minute of exercise. The HCG diet was conceived in 1950, by Dr. A.T. Simeons, who wrote in his booklet, Pounds and Inches, that injecting HCG, a hormone produced normally by pregnant women, could not only produce spectacular weight loss results, but at the same time "re-set" the metabolism centers in the brain permanently. Simeons' plan required daily injections of HCG, and a rigid semi-starvation 500 calorie a day diet. Although many people have been successful with the plan, an equal number have found the HCG diet difficult to follow and have increasing questions about the HCG's safety and effectiveness. <br><br>In the New Pounds and Inches, Richard L. Lipman M.D., a board certified endocrinologist and internist, updates and revises Simeons' 1954 plan using modern day science and his personal experience treating thousands of patients with HCG. Dr Lipman clarifies all of the controversies surrounding the HCG diet. The New Pounds and Inches uses oral HCG, an 800 calorie food plan, protein with all three meals, many fruits, unlimited vegetables, and many more foods, beverages and snacks unavailable to Dr. Simeons. It presents a workable exercise program, a maintenance plan and concludes with hundreds of appropriate HCG recipes. The New Pounds and Inches offers a safe, effective weight loss plan that sets the standard in weight loss for both practitioners and patients.
