The HCG diet has been proven a very safe method for rapid and permanent weight loss, with very few HCG side effects. Although the prescribed diet is very restricted and permits a very low number of calories to be consumed daily, the majority of dieters who go through the program do not experience unbearable hunger pangs, lack of energy or a sense of deprivation that are the typical hallmarks of low calorie diets. This is because HCG is able to metabolize stored body fat to release a sufficient number of calories to meet the body’s nutritional requirements. The beauty of the HCG diet protocol is the fact that the same process that causes weight loss also supplies the body all it needs so that dieters actually feel full and satisfied with the very low calorie diet.
A small percentage of dieters do experience HCG diet side effects such as dizziness, headaches, lack of energy, hunger, moodiness, irritability, hand swelling, leg cramps, and fatigue. While it might seem that there are a lot of symptoms, these can actually be sorted into two categories – hunger-related side effects and toxin-related side effects. Understanding what causes these HCG diet side effects is the key to avoiding or minimizing them.
Hunger-Related Side Effects
Anybody who has tried a low calorie diet would be very familiar with the lack of energy, fatigue, headaches, dizziness, and feelings of hunger. Therefore, it is not a surprise that these would also be the most common HCG diet side effects. These symptoms simply signal that the body is not getting all it needs to meet its energy and nutritional requirements. The question is why some dieters do experience hunger-related side effects when HCG should be working to keep them feeling full. The answer lies in the fact that these symptoms are typically experienced only during the first few days to a week of the low calorie diet and experienced most by dieters who do not properly load up with fatty food during the loading phase. This makes it obvious that the cause for these hunger-related symptoms is inadequate loading. Since HCG takes at least a couple of days to take full effect and start to burn stored fat, the dieter’s body would have to rely on the more easily accessible fat consumed during the loading days. If this is inadequate, then hunger will be experienced.
Toxin-Related Side Effects
The rest of the symptoms, which include moodiness, irritability, swollen hands, and leg cramps have been linked to the presence of toxins in the body, which are in the process of being flushed out during the first few days of the low calorie diet. This connection is observed from the fact that dieters who choose to do the optional colon cleanse before starting the HCG diet protocol report very low incidences of experiencing the HCG drops side effects in this category.
How to Avoid HCG Drops Side Effects
Almost all of the known HCG diet side effects consist of temporary discomforts that go away as soon as HCG takes full effect and the body adjusts to the low calorie diet. The truth is that none of these should deter a seriously committed dieter. Still, the whole HCG diet experience would be more pleasant if the side effects can be minimized or avoided completely. The good news is that this can be easily done by doing a pre-loading colon cleanse and eating enough fatty food during the two-day loading phase. Doing this will not only ensure a more pleasant HCG experience, it also increases the chances for successful rapid weight loss.
