The
HCG levels chart/ The HCG ban by FDA/ HCG diet chicken recipes
So you ask exactly what
a HCG chart is all about? Well, you
may not really know about it unless you consult a specialist and provide you
with fertility assistance. It’s normal that you can get confused but shouldn’t
make you feel foolish. The acronym HCG stands for the human chorionic gonadotropin,
a hormone that is of paramount importance for pregnant women.
The HCG levels
chart can be of great importance during pregnancy considering that levels of
HCG in the body are known to rise consistently for the first 12 weeks until
which they undergo a plateau stage. In some cases, HCG charts so that the level
of the hormone actually drops after this period. This explains the reason why
women feel intense and much stronger pregnancy symptoms during the first 3
months/ trimester. During early pregnancy period, the level of HCG tends to
double for every 3 days increasing at the highs of not less than 60% after
every two days. However, this actually depends upon a particular woman and
number of embryos being carried. In addition, other factors that determine the
level of HCG is how the woman’s body has been responding to pregnancy and the
general reaction of her body as it is unique from one woman to the other.
There has been lots of
hype lately regarding the recent action of FDA on HCG. As such, most people are
at a state of confusion as they don’t really understand exactly what the ban
was all about. Actually, the HCG ban was targeted on certain companies
that have been selling homeopathic HCG. According to the regulator, the way
that the companies were marketing the products made them appear like new drugs
that are not yet approved. According to FDA, it is possible for one to lose as
much weight with 500 calorie diet even without necessarily using HCG. As such,
some of the largest HCG online retailing companies were served with letters by
the regulator.
According to the letters, the companies were given 15 days in
which they were supposed to remove details on their websites, marketing
material and products which seem to suggest that HCG is a weight loss booster.
As a result, there were some companies that were shut down and HCG banned
completely from being sold by them. According to the regulators, whether HCG is
vibrational, homeopathic or prescribed, it is not an approved weight loss aid.
It is only approved to be used in fertility treatment and which resulted in the
ban.
Most of the HCG diet
recipes actually require that meat is weighed to about 100 grams per serving
when raw.
The rest 500 calories should comprise of allowed fruits and
vegetables. While cooking HCG chicken
recipes, you shouldn’t add any fat or oil. There are different ways in
which you can prepare the chicken including baking, broiling and grilling. Some
of the chicken recipes for HCG that you can prepare are such as the balsamic
chicken wraps, bun-less chicken burger, curry chicken and spinach, oven chicken
salad, chicken cacciatore, chicken fajitas and others.
If you wish to prepare balsamic
chicken wraps for instance, you will need 3.5 chicken ounces, Napa cabbage
leaf, green cabbage leaf, garlic clove, ¼ t. pepper, fresh ginger, onion
powder, balsamic vinegar and onion powder. To start with, mix together the
garlic, grated ginger, balsamic vinegar, onion powder, chicken pieces, pepper
and salt. Cook till the chicken has been thoroughly cooked. Then, add Napa
cabbage and cook the cabbage slightly. Take the green leaf and roll the chicken
mixture into a wrap.
