Marin Natural Medicine Clinic hCG Diet

The Marin hCG Diet, developed by Marin Natural Medicine Clinic, is based on the work of British physician Dr. A. T. W. Simeons. Dr. Simeons discovered when a person ate a low-caloric diet, and injected themselves with the hormone human chorionic gonadatropin (hCG), they lost between ½ to 1 pound each day. Dr. Simeons treated thousands of patients with this diet for over two decades at the Salvator Mundi International Hospital in Rome, Italy. In recent years, the weight loss program has resurged due to its effectiveness and relative safety.

Marin Natural Medicine Clinic was the first clinic to provide the medically supervised hCG diet in Marin. Our physicians have successfully helped hundreds of patients lose weight, and maintain their new weight. Our doctors start by understanding each individuals weight management history, ordering blood tests to ensure it is safe for a patient to participate in the weight loss program, and determine if there are underlying metabolic issues that may interfere with weight loss.

Benefits of the Marin hCG Diet by Marin Natural Medicine Clinic:

• Medically-supervised. Patients meet with their doctor each week for support, adjust treatments and receive acupuncture treatments to enhance metabolism and address possible side effects such as fatigue and constipation.
• Rapid weight loss. On average, patients will experience a loss between ½ to 1 pound per day. It is common for our patients to lose up to 25 pounds in one cycle.
• Lose fat, not muscle. The hCG diet is designed to facilitate loss of fat, not lean body mass. This is measured by performing a Bio-impedance Analysis before and after the program.
• Patients keep weight off. Patients experience a new weight “set point” after completion of the program so as not to re-gain weight. Our specific stabilization phase helps patients keep the weight off!
• Improved health. Being overweight is associated with many health conditions including cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure, certain cancers, diabetes, and arthritis. Collectively, these conditions cost Americans billions of dollars each year. When indicated, our doctors successfully help patients reduce or stop specific medications associated with being overweight or obese.
