Diabetes And The HCG Diet

Are you a diabetic that would like to use the HCG Weight Loss Diet?

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I would be choosing 1 comment or question every week to do a post on. Well today I am writing this post in response to a question that I received from one of my readers.

Debbie from Michigan asks...

"Can diabetics use the HCG Diet?"

Well Debbie, people that suffer from Type 2 Diabetes, also known as Stable Diabetes, are still able to successfully use the HCG Diet. In fact, some diabetics have said, that after being on the HCG Diet for about a week, they were able to cut way back on their medication. Some even say that they were able to stop taking it all together.

Of course this is something that you should never attempt to do on your own. You should always consult your doctor before you stop or make any changes to your medication.

But how is this even possible?

Usually, when a diabetic with high blood sugar has been on the HCG Diet for a couple of days, their blood sugar levels will start going down. In most cases, it will continue to drop everyday until it reaches normal levels, which can sometimes take about 2 or 3 weeks.

On the other hand...

A person with Type 1 Diabetes, which is sometimes called Brittle Diabetes, does not do as well with the HCG Diet. However, people that do have Type 1 Diabetes are still able to use the diet if they choose to. But I think it goes without saying, that both types of diabetics should be closely monitored by their doctors throughout the course of the diet.

Cheese On The HCG Diet - Is It Allowed?

Is cheese one of the items on the HCG 500 Calorie Diet Menu? Anyone who has read the HCG Diet Protocol knows that there are a lot of different rules to follow. On top of it all, you have to remember which foods you can and cannot eat. However, what people usually remember more than anything is that list of foods you can have is much smaller than the foods that you can't. Still, it can be quite a task to memorize that list in such a short period of time. I guess this is why people always ask my wife and I which foods are allowed during Phase 2 of the HCG Weight Loss Diet - One of the more common foods we are asked about is cheese. Now I love cheese probably more than the average person, so I can definitely understand why people are hoping and praying that it's listed on the HCG Diet Menu. And this brings us to the question we are here to answer... Can You Have Cheese On The HCG 500 Calorie Diet? I think deep down inside most of you already knew that the answer ...

How The Hypothalamus Works

What the Hypothalamus Gland does and why it's so important to fix it... The Hypothalamus Gland is located directly below the Thalamus which is at the center of the brain. It controls many automatic functions of the human body. So this means that it can tell the autonomic nervous system what to do. The Hypothalamus also controls pituitary output by distributing certain chemicals to the pituitary's frontal lobe. To put it more simply, the Hypothalamus Gland organizes and controls many complex emotions, feelings and moods. It also controls all motivational states including hunger, appetite and food intake, and everything to do with the concept of pleasure including satisfaction, comfort and creative activities. The neurons in the Hypothalamus produce a number of Hypothalamic Neurotransmitters which relay information and instruction to all parts of the brain and body, directly influencing the Pituitary Gland. This is where the Growth Hormone, Thyroid Hormone Releasi...

If you were to Google the term " HCG Diet Dangers ", you would get a bunch of sites trying to sell you something related to the HCG Diet. A lot of the websites that you will run into trying to find the answer to this question, are nothing more than marketers using fear tactics to get you to buy their product. So try not to get pulled in by this sort of thing. The truth is there are some HCG Diet Dangers, but they're probably not as bad as you think. In fact, some of them are human errors that make this method of weight loss the most dangerous. I'm talking about things like getting an infection from not cleaning your syringe. While getting an infection from a syringe is a danger that is associated with the HCG Diet, it is a mistake that a human makes that causes it. Therefore, the danger can be eliminated if you can only remember to use alcohol pads...
