About hCG (Chorionic Gonadatropin)
Through research physicians have been able to create a link between obesity and the hypothalamus. They found that when the hypothalamus gland was not working properly patients would have an intense physical hunger and would crave and eat when they should not have been hungry. This causes an abnormal storage of fat. Researchers found that hCG had a positive effect on the hypothalamus by decreasing hunger. After administering hCG to patients, their hunger cravings were noticeably lessened and they began to lose the abnormal fat storage.
In most cases, patients at Foothills Internal Medicine have experienced the following benefits when taking the hCG shots and following the recommendations of our providers.

No other diet releases secured fat reserves the way hCG has been shown to do. And, studies have shown 85% of hCG patients have kept the weight off on year later.
HCG has no FDA approval as effective adjunctive therapy in the treatment of obesity.
