STARLITE – HCG DIET Program
Pregnancy goes hand in hand with weight gain. But did you ever think that a hormone secreted during pregnancy, if taken artificially, could, in fact, make you lose weight? The term HCG stands for human chorionic gonadotropin, a hormone that is secreted naturally in the placenta during pregnancy.
The HCG diet limits calorie intake to around 500 calories per day for weeks at a time, making it an extreme weight loss diet. It’s an extreme diet, claimed to cause fast weight loss of up to 1–2 pounds (0.5–1 kg) per day. Here is how the diet program works.
- Initial assessment – 30-60 mins including updated bloodwork, baseline measurements
- Weekly vitamin B shots/check-ins including vitals, nutritional guidance
- Follow-up assessment – 15-30 mins
- Unlimited patient emails/<10min phone consults
We ensure that the individual is fully prepared and equipped physically to undertake this program through an initial assessment and follow up assessments along the way. If you feel you are up to take this challenge on, contact the clinic for more information.
