Another Reason To Lose Weight With The HCG Diet

Does Obesity Further Complicate H1N1?

With Flu season upon us, it's off to the doctor we go to get a flu shot. But is there something else we could do to avoid another outbreak of the H1N1 virus?

Maybe - I'm of coarse talking about losing weight. Today I watched a clip of The Early Show taped back in November 2009, where Dr. Holly Phillips, of WCBS-TV, and Early Show co-anchor Harry Smith, sat down to discuss the connection between obesity and the complications it can cause in conjunction the H1N1 virus.

This is what Dr. Phillips had to say about it...

"Of the 268 hospitalized patients for whom we had weights, actually 58% of them were obese. And 25% of that group were considered morbidly obese. Now, that's more than 100 pounds overweight, so they were significantly overweight and they were at five times increased risk of complications from the H1N1 flu than the general population."

I too thought this was very alarming. So I wanted to go ahead and share this video clip with all of you.

Obesity Can Further Complicate H1N1!

Now keep in mind, even though this was almost 2 years ago, studies have been done to further support what they already knew back then.

So if you ask me, this is just one more great reason to jump on board the HCG Diet bandwagon.

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 ...

HCG Diet Dangers

HCG Diet Dangers - Are there any? And if so, what are they? So what are the dangers associate with the HCG Diet? 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.

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.
