The fad for using HCG as a dieting method began back in the 1950s after Dr. ATW Simeons revealed that HCG can supposedly increase the metabolism and help the body burn off fat rather than store it. The HCG Diet only became more and more popular after that, especially with the recent development of using HCG drops instead of injections. The HCG drops are now more commonly used for the diet than the injections, since it is reported that it doesn’t pose the same HCG injection side effects. And aside from HCG drops or injections, the diet also has a special program of food and drinks that one should follow while on the diet, a low-calorie regimen that doesn’t exceed 500 calories a day.

The HCG Diet drops may not give the side effects associated with injections, such as pain and swelling at the injected site, but it doesn’t prevent one from experiencing the side effects of the HCG hormone. Websites like hcgdangers.com declare on the very first sentence that “there are no dangers of HCG on human body,” but there are plenty of research and findings backed by the United States Food and Drug Administration that HCG, whether in oral or injection form, are not safe and effective for use as a weight loss treatment. This means that HCG should not be seen as something essential, like a vitamin or mineral, for HCG can give far worse reactions to the body than simple potassium or vitamin b12 side effects, like ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, chronic vomiting, depression, and in rare cases, the enlargement of breasts in men.

HCG Diet drops and injections should not be tried without first consulting your doctor. Not only will this save you unnecessary expenses, but it can also keep you from falling prey to fake HCG products. And the US FDA has stated that HCG in any form is unsafe and ineffective for weight loss, so protect your health by refraining from trying out the HCG Diet.

The lack of HgH in the body can lead to increased fat deposits, especially in the abdomen, low energy levels, decreased lean muscle mass and a low level of strength and endurance. Low HgH levels are common in men over the age of 35 as the production of HgH peaks during puberty and continues to drop as we age.

It is possible to supplement with synthetic HgH and most people respond very well to this type of treatment. Complete reversal of the negative effects within 3-6 months is not uncommon.

HGH can add muscle

As mentioned previously, HgH production is at its peak during puberty and it is during this time that the body adds most new muscle cells. As we age the body produces less HgH and eventually our bodies stop producing new muscle cells at all.

At this time the only way to increase lean muscle mass is by increasing the size of existing muscle cells which is much more difficult.

Supplementing with synthetic HgH or substances that increase HgH production will allow the body to continue creating new muscle cells and increase the ability for weight training individuals to add new lean muscle mass. Increasing the levels of HgH in your body allows you to overcome your genetic predisposition and add new muscle that was previously impossible.

HGH can add a pound of muscle a week

Steroids work primarily by increasing the amount of water in your muscle cells. This water gain is often short-lived and steroids also lead to many other negative side effects. HgH in contrast increases the actual number of muscle cells and allows you to continue growing naturally. It is possible to add up to one pound of muscle a week while training and supplementing with synthetic HgH.

In addition to adding new muscle, HgH also works as a metabolic booster and will encourage the use of stored fat as energy in the body leading to improved body composition. HgH also improves recovery meaning you can work out longer, more intensely and more frequently. And just like when you were younger, you will see improved recovery from injuries as well.

In summary

HgH will get you better results from your training, will give you more muscle cells and reduced fat deposits, will allow you to train harder, longer and more frequently and will allow you to heal faster if you become injured. If you are also using any kind of anabolic adding HgH will increase your bodies ability to benefit from the anabolic as well.

HgH will make you stronger, bigger and less fat while possibly even increasing your potential through it’s ability to grow more muscle cells. You will recover faster, heal faster and grow faster. HgH is approved for use by the FDA and has very few negative side effects.

Check out the newest GH Releaser from IBE Labs called XDream.

Available at select retailers on July 5th 2007, XDream is a revolutionary post workout relaxant and sleep aid that really delivers. Unlike OTC counter sleep aids you won’t wake up feeling groggy after using XDream. XDream promotes deep REM sleep which decreases the total amount of sleep you need, lets you wake up refreshed and best of all increases circulating growth hormone levels.

How does it work? IBE has combined 3-OH-GABA and N-arachidonyl-dopamine HCL to create XDream. 3-OH-GABA binds to the same receptors in the brain as benzodiazepines like Xanax to induce relaxation and 3-OH-GABA has also been shown to increase growth hormone levels. The second ingredient, N-arachidonyl-dopamine HCL binds to the cannabinoid CB1 receptor in the brain. This is the same receptor stimulated by marijuana and known to cause feelings of euphoria and relaxation. The combination of 3-OH-GABA and N-arachidonyl-dopamine HCL triggers all the benefits of XDream.

As someone who wakes multiple times during the night, gets less than 6 hours sleep many nights and has trouble falling asleep most nights I know I will be trying XDream. Even if it only promoted REM sleep it would be worth it, but the fact that it stimulates growth hormone release as well will make it a great tool in any athlete’s arsenal.
