Why does Dr.Greenbean think the hcg diet is great for most??

March 28th, 2010

Hey all-I am sick of people/patients saying “I can’t believe Dr.GB (not my real name…many of you know me) promotes the hcg diet”. First of all, I am entitled to my opinion…my opinion is backed by 9 years of college/medical school education and 11 years of patient experience. Let me tell you all why I do think the hcg is good for most…my opinion afterall.

I think that the hcg program jump starts anyone’s journey towards wellness. Yes, you might lose 25-40+ pounds and feel great but medically speaking you have just really improved your health. Your heart thanks you for releasing some burden off of its action, your blood sugar might register on the normal side now, your blood pressure might not scare the person taking it, your brain might not want sugar/empty carbs when bored, your appetite might not be that of a grizzly bear before hibernation, your kidneys have to deal with less fluid, and YOU LOOK FRICKIN’ FABULOUS!

As a physician, I get so sick of other physicians telling their patients to lose weight and then offering NOTHING to help them. Well, this hcg program is an option for my clients. Yes, it is a drastic, invasive, seemingly crazy way to start a weight loss journey but HELLO—-if you lose 25-40+ pounds maybe, just maybe you will begin to change your life forever! I do lots of other weight loss programs for my patients that need to lose 5-20 pounds but when someone needs to lose more than that, the hardest part is EMBARKING on the journey.

I have had lots of patients lose over 100 pounds….without surgery or harsh drugs…THAT  ROCKS!  Those people will tell you HCG saved their life.

I have had people lose 25 pounds and then change the way they eat forever. Oh, and they even go to the gym now….WOW! Oh, and their health is better now than ever!

I have had people gain back every pound they lost within 2-3 months of the hcg program. I HATE that…HCG is NOT a quick fix, nothing is. If you are not ready to be healthy forever, then save your money and time. You will need the money for insulin and blood pressure medication eventually anyway.

The hcg program is also a great cleanse for people. It is also a hypo-allergenic diet. I have had many people figure out they were allergic to wheat or dairy or corn or soy or….after doing the program. I have seen many medical issues disappear while on the hcg program…after all, food can cause illness or disease. I have seen eczema, GERD, migraines, acne, hypertension, high cholesterol, edema, PMS, menopausal symptoms, and many others issues DISAPPEAR on the diet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that doesn’t teach folks that what they eat matters then nothing will.

Thanks for reading the soap box….Next time someone wonders why this physician does HCG with people, I can refer to the soapbox. HA!

    LOVE THIS Dr. GB! You are so right. I cannot tell you how happy I was to have found this amazing diet. I actually went to my Dr. and started my Dr.’s recommended Rx diet program. I took Phentermine for almost 6 months then ALI and I lost a whopping 5 lbs. My Dr. threw up her hands and sad sorry, I have nothing else to recommend. I have research and research the dangers of HCG and have so far found none. Keep up the great work! LOVE your soap box!
