Weight loss injections containing hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) are, in my experience, no more effective than using homeopathic hCG drops for weight loss. They cost more, they hurt and they’re inconvenient. You can get the same result by using homeopathic hCG drops, which don’t have the kinds of drawbacks you’ll find with the weight loss injections.

So the most important thing you need to know about weight loss injections is that you don’t need them.

As you may know, hCG weight loss injections are actually the original method Dr Simeons used when he was pioneering this amazing program.

Back in the 1950s, Dr Simeons discovered that hCG helps people lose weight by allowing them to eat a very low calorie diet without feeling hungry. He worked out that hCG could trick the brain into burning up the body’s hard-to-access fat stores for energy instead of forcing the body into starvation mode. His clients would visit him in his surgery for their daily weight loss injections and the whole process was conducted in a sterile setting with minimal inconvenience to the client.

However, there have been a great many medical breakthroughs since then, particularly in the holistic health field and in homeopathy.

Dr Simeons used his weight loss injections well before the pharmaceutical hCG drops and the homeopathic hCG drops (which is what we advocate) were developed. Now we have all three available, it’s worth comparing them.

After reading this you may still decide hCG weight loss injections are the way to go. My opinion? Ditch the painful needles – they’ve been superseded!

HCG weight loss injections vs homeopathic hCG drops

Obviously, the biggest difference between the two is the method of application. The weight loss injections involve the use of needles and the drops involve placing a few drops of the hCG preparation under your tongue.

Having a needle is not everyone’s cup of tea. Some of us hate them, some of us are okay with them. But either way, needles are quite invasive.

The hCG weight loss injections go into your belly, buttocks or upper arm and if you can’t handle the idea of sticking the needle in yourself (ouch!) you’ll need a partner or friend on standby who’s willing to give you a daily injection.

You might think it’s just a little pin prick, but there are some possible side effects of the injections you should be aware of. These include swelling, itchiness, cramping and infection at the site. That’s not counting needle phobias or anxiety!

Secondly, it’s actually quite difficult to find a doctor in Australia to give you a consultation about hCG weight loss injections and then give you a prescription. I spoke with a man on the phone recently who told me he had to travel from Cairns to Brisbane to see a doctor for a prescription. The short consultation cost him $150.

The fact is, not many doctors are on board with the program. That leaves you with ordering your hCG weight loss injections online.

When you do that, you won’t just be paying for your hCG and your program. You’ll also have to buy additional supplies, like syringes and needles, sterile pads, additional mixing syringes, storage bottles and bacteriostatic water. You’ll have to follow strict instructions so that you do the whole thing safely and correctly.

The pharmaceutical hCG drops bypass the mess, hassle and pain of the weight loss injections, but they’re not as effective. They’re not absorbed as well, so you need more hCG and it can be more expensive. Plus, you still might need to mix it up yourself and follow the correct storage instructions or risk contaminating your hCG supply.

Finally, it’s a lot more expensive to do the pharmaceutical version of the hCG diet – either the weight loss injections or the drops. If you’re going to do the injections with a doctor, you’ll be paying more than $1000 for a three-week program, when you add up the cost of the hCG itself, the additional supplies and the consultations.

Here’s why we think non-hormonal bioenergetic hCG drops are safer, easier to use and more effective than hCG weight loss injections

The hCG formula is pre-mixed, so there’s nothing for you to do other than open the bottle and place 7 to 10 drops under your tongue, three times a day. Easy peasy.

Additional supplies are not necessary and you don’t need to do any mixing on your own. You do, however, need to keep a few things in mind:

• You need to take the bioenergetic hCG drops three times a day and hold them under your tongue for a couple of minutes if possible.
• Most importantly, you should not eat or drink anything for about 15 minutes before or after you take the drops.
• Coffee and peppermint tea need to be consumed at least an hour either side of taking the drops, as they are strong flavours that can affect the functioning of the drops.
• If you don’t like the taste of the drops and can’t hold them under your tongue for two minutes, it’s just as effective to hold them under your tongue for a few seconds.

The big question on many people’s lips when tossing up whether to do the hCG weight loss injections or the homeopathic hCG drops is this: does homeopathy work or is it just a placebo?

I am a naturopath with 15 years experience and I have treated hundreds of clients with homeopathy. I know, without a doubt, that it works.

The non-hormonal, bio-energetic formula we use imprints the same message as the actual hormone and so it does achieve excellent weight loss results. It works by stimulating receptor sites within the cellular membrane constructs of the body, in a similar way to that of hormone messaging.

Rather than a direct hormonal interface with cellular receptors, it transmits a modulating vibrational frequency – kind of like a radio signal.

To illustrate, think of our sense of smell. You only have to smell a few food molecules floating in the air and memories of meals enjoyed in the past are triggered. Those tiny molecules have a very subtle emotional and neurological influence – brain function is directly influenced by the recognition of the scent.

In a similar way, our complex vibrational homeopathic formulation creates positive cellular stimulation, leading to the positive outcomes we have observed, time and time again.
