There are both negative and positive reports on the Internet about HCG diet programs. How do I know which ones to believe?
We have visited dozens of websites with information about HCG diet programs. Many of the sites report that HCG has no beneficial use as part of a weight loss program. On the other hand, there are hundreds of testimonials swearing to the effectiveness of the HCG diet. As with any form of alternative therapy, it is possible to find sincere people on both sides of the issue with differing opinions. Here is what we do know: Dr. Marcantel has tried this diet for herself and it worked for her. She has also worked with a number of patients who’ve had excellent success. The bottom line is that we encourage each potential participant in the program to do research on their own and determine if they are comfortable with the program before committing to it.
