There are more and more people who are trying a homeopathic HCG diets at home that may have many questions about it. There are many online resources like websites and forums that act as support groups and places for discussion and answers about following homeopathic HCG diets.

One of the most common questions is in regards to the very low calorie diet that dieters are supposed to follow. Typically, they should only consume 500 calories per day! Almost everyone wonders if their metabolism will shut down or slow down because of the lack of calories. Normally, when a person lowers their intake of calories and fat, their body begins to store the fat and the metabolism slows way down. Simply put, the body thinks it is starving and tries to save that source of stored energy. When you add to a low calorie diet the homeopathic HCG, it signals the body to start using and burning the stored fat for its energy, eliminating excess fat reserves. This means that there are no bad effects on the metabolism. When fat deposits are released, the body uses them as fuel, and this is what causes a persons appetite to decrease.

Another common question about homeopathic HCG is that people wonder if they will just lose weight by eating a low amount of calories without HCG. The answer is yes, people will lose some weight. However, there are risks and negative consequences to just cutting out a majority of the calories that are eaten. The body tends to get rid of muscle before fat, and when the body is deprived of calories, it stores fat! This will make the metabolism slow down, which makes it easier for a person to gain weight and lose muscle. When a person combines the low calorie diet with the homeopathic HCG, the excess fat is used and the rest of it in the body is disposed of, and it also prevents the empty fat cells from refilling.

Finally, people wonder if they should see their doctor before starting this type of regimen, and the answer is yes. This is the case with any diet product or exercise program. People also wonder about the shelf life of the hormone. Although different products have different specific shelf lives, it seems on average that the products can have a shelf life of up to a year when they are unopened and kept out of direct sunlight in a cool place. After they are opened, they can last about six months. People are recommended to keep their homeopathic HCG drops in the refrigerator, but they are still safe at room temperature, too.
