Question about HCG

Learning2LoveMe

Okay so I understand its a hormone and whatnot. But why do you have to do 500 calories a day? Can't you eat like normal and still use the hormone and have it work?


((I'm not looking into doing the HCG at all, I personally think it's silly.. I'm just curious why the calorie limit is so low))

Here is a link to the original document that the HCG plan is based upon.

It is much simpler than Kevin Trudeau made it in his book. If you read through the explanation, the science of it is explained. There is an active thread for those who are using HCG or thinking about it. You have a better chance of getting answers if you post your questions there. Here is the link:
