Join the HCG weight loss revolution!!

How would you like to loose 20-30 pounds this month?  The HCG protocol is for anyone looking to lose 20 or 30 pounds in a month.  It is a proven, sage, and effective solution for dramatic weight loss.  At Gonstead Family Chiropractic, a licensed naturopathic medical doctor will monitor your personalized HCG protocol and offer all the support you need for lasting weight loss success.

HCG Protocol
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is the single most effective method to lose weight.  With results of 20 to 30 pounds lost in a month safely, HCG is superior to any and all other methods of weight loss.

Side Effects
The most common side effect of HCG is weight loss.  Some patients experience minor headaches in the first few days as their bodies adjusts to the protocol.  Another side effect is minor dehydration, due to the body’s burning fat.  We monitor our HCG patients for dehydration at every office bisit, and if we see the symptoms, we prescribe electrolyte enhanced beverages to help the body restore its proper fluid balance.  Occasionally, patients experience mild constipation, which is easily managed through over-the-counter magnesium supplements.

Is HCG safe?
HCG has been safely used for over 60 years at doses twenty times greater than what we use at Gonstead Family Chiropractic.  At our clinic, we use exactly the amount required for each patient in order to safely achieve weight loss.  Hundreds of patients have seen dramatic results and suffered no side effects from their individualized protocol plan.

Who can benefit from HCG?
Anyone who is at least 20 pounds overweight can benefit.  Patients with a BMI over 26 would benefit from HCG.  However, those with a BMI under 26 may or may not see drstic results from HCG.  A simple office visit with on of out licensed doctors will determine whether or not you are an eligible candidate for the HCG protocol.

Costs
At Gonstead Family Chiropractic it is our dedication to service that makes us your first choice for weight loss.  We provide more service and support than any of our competitors.  Our total cost for the HCG protocol is $695.  This includes the following:

  • An initial consult with one of our licensed physicians

  • Weekly weigh-ins with body fat analysis, hydration assessment, and body mass index measurement to track your success.

HCG history
The use of HCG as a diet aid was first discussed in a report that Dr. A.T.W. Simeons published in 1954. He noted that his patients could drastically reduce their caloric intake along with injections of HCG without experiencing irritability, hunger pains, headaches, or weakness. In addition to losing weight, Dr. Simeon noted that the injections also helped to naturally reshape his patient’s bodies. This was because they lost their fat tissue from adipose tissue accumulations. These abnormal fat tissues disappear: the double chin, potbelly and fat around hips and thighs are the first to go.

Most HCG Weight Loss patients see a loss in girth (inches) before they see any drop in the scales. You will lose fat mostly in the waist and stomach. While properly supervised, the result is rapid weight loss and improved body shape during and after treatments. Reshaping of body contour is quickly noticeable.
