What is different about the Bodhi hCG Program?
Our doctor-supervised hCG diet
program is all-inclusive, combining the therapies and supplements, which means a comprehensive program to ensure the most superior outcome for our patients. There is no up selling in our program, just results.
What is hCG?
hCG is an acronym for the hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, which is a naturally occurring hormone-like substance secreted from the placenta in pregnant women. Though pregnant women of course have the highest levels of hCG in their bodies, hCG is found in both men and women. In the 1950’s Dr. Simeons discovered that hCG could shift a body into burning fat for fuel and allow the body to melt off fat easily with a low calorie diet.
Why hCG?
A deficient diencephalon or pituitary gland is the thought behind the hCG diet. The pituitary gland is known as the master gland in the body and is responsible for many functions including:
- Growth
- Blood pressure
- Sex organ functions
- Thyroid gland function
|
- Regulates metabolism
- Secretes ADH (antidiuretic hormone), controls the absorption of water by kidneys
- Temperature regulation
|
Through the small daily doses of hCG the pituitary gland function is optimized. This regulates the metabolism of the patient and directs the mobilization of fat around the body. Once the fat is being mobilized it can be taken in by the cells and burned for energy. Typically people can comfortably go about their usual occupations on a diet of only 500 calories and lose an average of about one pound per day. The daily administration of hCG appeared to have no side-effects other than beneficial ones.
Why such a limited diet?
The diet is limited because it is designed to remove common food allergens and to keep people from eating more than 500 calories a day. It is understood that food allergies increase inflammation in a person’s body and can make it difficult to lose weight.
Will I be really tired or hungry during the hCG diet program?
Many people who partake in the program do not feel hungry and often have more energy during the diet because with the limited intake of calories your body will spend less energy digesting food.
Why the infrared sauna?
We incorporate the far infrared sauna because it is a great way to increase the body’s core temperature, assist the body’s metabolism, and support the mitochondrial function to burn fat.
Who should consider the hCG diet?
Those who have struggled with diets before, are looking to lose over 20 lbs, or are interested in dropping weight quickly yet safely.
Who shouldn’t consider the hCG diet?
Although a Bodhi physician will determine your ability to begin this program based on your initial consultation there are some who should most definitely not consider this program. Cancer patients, pregnant women, those who want to lose less then 8 pounds, and diabetics are a few of those who fit this category.
