Arguments and discussions can get repetitive. They can get “old.” The discussion (often turned argument) of homeopathic HCG vs. injectable HCG definitely gets repetitive, but it never gets “old.” It doesn’t get old because it’s always relevant. There’s always someone looking for the information they need to understand the two; their similarities and their differences.
The all natural element of homeopathic HCG is the most important fact when it comes to choosing which type of HCG diet for many dieters. They were first drawn to the HCG diet because of the fact that it was based around the use of a natural hormone and they only find it more advantageous when they discover that it is also formulated and administered in an all natural, homeopathic fashion.
When it comes to the HCG diets based on injections the most basic fact is that injections are required. Injections are required daily. That means needles; lots of needles. That’s one needle every day.
And that’s the most obvious and basic difference between the two: homeopathic HCG vs. injectable HCG. One has injections and one doesn’t. When Dr. Simeons originally introduced the use of HCG as a dieting tool he used HCG injections. But many agree that this is due to the fact that homeopathic HCG was not yet in existence. This same group of people insist that the release of homeopathic HCG is behind the extreme rush of popularity amongst the general public.
Another difference between the two is the cost. Homeopathic HCG is much more affordable than HCG injections. Injectable HCG requires a prescription. Homeopathic HCG does not.
The differences are clear. There should really not be much discussion (or argument) when it comes to homeopathic HCG vs. injectable HCG. It seems pretty clear what’s what. The differences seem obvious once they are pointed out. And then there are the similarities.
Both versions require dieters to stick to the protocol. The protocol includes a very strict VLCD diet. It includes an approved list of foods. It recommends no exercise while on the diet. These things are all the same.
Every HCG diet is followed by a maintenance phase. It doesn’t matter if you do the 15 day or the 40 day. It doesn’t matter if you do the injectable HCG diet or the homeopathic HCG diet…you do the maintenance diet either way. During maintenance dieters up the amount of calories they take in daily. The calories are increased from 500 to 1500. The list of approved foods is extended to include additional items. The maintenance phase should last as long as the diet lasts; a 15 day diet requires a 15 day maintenance period. A 26 day diet requires a 26 day maintenance period, etc.
Homeopathic HCG vs. injectable HCG…the discussion is now complete. Or at least it seems as if it should be complete. The differences are clear. The similarities are clear. And it’s right there for everyone to see. But then…I can assure you that the discussion will come up again. Because people will continue to be confused. But you know how to find the answers…so next time you’re confused you can easily get clear again.
