Vancouver HCG weightloss treatments

Som Visao welcomes Dr. Michael Lederman, ND to our team of wellness professionals.  Dr. Lederman brings over twelve years of experience and provides individuals who are concerned about losing weight with safe and rapid results.

What is HCG?

HCG is a hormone naturally produced in the human body in both men and women.  HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin.

How does HCG help me lose weight?

HCG has the effect of "unlocking" and mobilizing the body's fat stores.  Therefore, the body is comfortable on the HCG low calorie diet, as it will be burning the unwanted stored fat as fuel for energy.

What type of HCG is the best?

The Dr. Lederman HCG weight loss program uses pharmaceutical HCG. This HCG is only available by prescription, and is the most effective HCG available. Although unregulated HCG drops can be purchased online and over the counter, aside from safety concerns, these products do not yield the results of pharmaceutical HCG.

How are HCG treatments performed?

Prescription HCG can be taken through different methods, but the most common is by injection. The injections are simple and painless, using a very fine needle, much like how a diabetic would administer insulin. For those who are adverse to injections, pharmaceutical HCG can be taken orally.

What are the results?

On average, people following the HCG program will lose 1/2 to 1 pound per day over the duration of the program.  This yields weight loss up to 20-30 pounds in the first month.
