HCG – Getting Started Questions
Top HCG Questions
A youtube viewer wrote and asked some great questions.
I thought it would be good to post the assortment of questions and my answers because this is just about the top most asked questions when someone is getting ready to start HCG.
She wrote;
“I’m getting ready to begin my HCG journey. I’m so excited, yet at the same time I’m scared! Between your Loseit4ever channel, Mamaclok, and HCG forums, I’m getting a lot of information, and becoming more assured that I’m doing the right thing for my health.”
Great Q&A!
Q-Can I continue to take my blood pressure and water pill meds while on HCG?
MY ANSWER – If these are prescriptions your doctor has you on you should not go off of them unless the doctor tells you it is ok.
When on protocol you should be drinking a lot of water which will also help you with your releases (2 quart minimum). Once your body “gets” that you will be drinking more water your body won’t try to be a “camel” and retain the water.
Q- I also take Melatonin 
MY Answer — I think Melatonin
Q – And would you recommend a supplement for energy?
MY Answer — Many HCGers take B12. I take a lot of different supplements (Not diet pills) that also give my energy. Yerba Mate Tea 
Q-What do you recommend is best to eat during load days? I see Mamaclok from youtube ate donuts, but are there recommended “gorge” foods?
My Answer — Since that vlog I think Karen would agree better “gorge” choices are good fats. One successful HCGer loves to eat a big bowl of guacamole. I make sure I eat foods that I think I will “miss” once I’m on protocol. Mexican food and even though it has sugar, ice cream which is also high fat so the fat will slow the absorption rate of the sugar into your system. Other HCGers like to eat fatty meats as well. I just learned that finishing out your last load day 3 hours prior to bedtime with ½ a brick of cream cheese and 15-30 macadamia nuts helps your system to kick into ketosis better.
Q-Is loose skin expected with hcg weight loss?
My Answer — The great thing about HCG is we release the fat quickly. But then your skin needs to play “catch up”. If I had it to do over again I would have taken the MSM 
Q- I see where you were talking about the Apple Cider Vinegar
My Answer — I came up with the Apple Cider Vinegar
don’t know why but it seems to me it is good to do your very first round as virgin on protocol as you possibly can. After the first round if you feel you want to try more “tricks” to see which ones work for you go ahead but journal so you know what works and what you should avoid.
Q-I currently take Perfect Food Super Green Powder
mixed in water, because I don’t eat enough veggies. I’ve never checked the caloric content, though I guess it should be low, and fat free. Would you recommend continuing with it?
My Answer — You would have to let me know the ingredients. If carbs or sugars aren’t added it should be ok. But again even if it doesn’t have those ingredients I wouldn’t add it at first . Just do protocol and then add and journal the result. If you see that by adding it you either stay steady with your releases or even better releases that you know you are good to go!
Q-Where did you purchase your hcg? (I plan on doing mine sublingually)
My Answer — I did injections but sub lingual also uses RX HCG so you can still purchase from where I did if you want.
I prefer ReliablerxPharmacy(reasonable prices) is my favorite.
All Day Chemist (tried them because other hcgers mentioned them a lot)
and they are fine too. The way to pay with reliable was easier for me though.

HCG Question – New to HCG and Have Questions Before I Start
HCG Question – New to HCG and have Questions Before I Start
I’m getting ready to begin my HCG journey the first of May. I’m so excited, yet at the same time I’m scared! Between your channel (loseit4ever), Mamaclok on You Tube, I’m getting a lot of information, and becoming more assured that I’m doing the right thing for my health.
I do have a few questions. I haven’t had a chance to go through very many of your vlogs, but can you tell me:
Question – Can I continue to take my blood pressure and water pill meds while on HCG?
Answer – When I started I was on thyroid medicine and was told I should stay on it. Always best to ask your doctor and Google if there are any interactions with combining.
Question – I also take melatonin to help with sleep.
MY Answer – I think Melatonin is good and fine while on HCG.
Question – And would you recommend a supplement for energy?
MY Answer – Many HCGers take B12. I take a lot of different supplements that also give me energy. But what I want to be sure is understood is that when on proper HCG the abnormal fat stores are being burned. Too many people only look at the 500 cal consumption and worry they will be weak and you won’t be. I wasn’t weak, lightheaded, none of that during my rounds.
Question – What do you recommend is best to eat during load days? I see Mamaclok ate donuts, but are there recommended “gorge” foods?
My Answer – Since that vlog I think Karen would agree better “gorge” choices are good fats. One successful HCGer loves to eat a big bowl of guacamole. I make sure I eat foods that I think I will “miss” once I’m on protocol. Mexican food and even though it has sugar, ice cream which is also high fat so the fat will slow the absorption rate of the sugar into my system.Other HCGers like to eat fatty meats as well.
Question – Is loose skin expected with hcg weight loss?
My Answer – The great thing about HCG is we release the fat quickly. The thing is then your skin needs to play “catch up”. If I had it to do over again I would have taken the MSM in mega doses as soon as I started HCG.
Question – I see where you were talking about the ACV/MSM cocktail shot – at what phase is this advisable?
My Answer – I came up with the ACV/MSM shot for P2ers.Even though I have done the ACV/ MCT during P2. Since MCT is a oil I prefer a new P2er doesn’t do that one until there a reason for going that direction.
Question –I currently take Perfect Food green powder mixed in water, because I don’t eat enough veggies. I’ve never checked the caloric content, though I guess it should be low, and fat free. Would you recommend continuing with it?
My Answer – You would have to let me know the ingredients. How many carbs or possible sugar does it have?
Question – Where did you purchase your hcg? (I plan on doing mine sublingually)
My Answer – I did injections but sublingual also uses RX HCG so you can still purchase from where I did if you want. I have ordered from 3 different places.
Reliable Pharmacy (reasonable prices and reliable;)
Pharmacy Escrow (1st place I ever ordered from)
All Day Chemist (tried them because other hcgers mentioned them a lot)
My Favorite to order from
….um, did I say a few questions! Anyway, thank you so much for sharing your experience, encouragement, and advice. I look forward to – as my time allows- viewing more of your uploads.
MY Answer – LOL – no worries , I LOVE to HELP! 😉
HCG- Question – APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, MSM, MCT – When to do what?
Understanding the ACV, MCT, MSM Usage
QUESTION – Do you do the acv/mct shots and the acv/msm shots? If so how often and how much of each?
My ANSWER – If I use MCI when not o P2 I’m getting that and ACV when I make my salad dressings etc.I also swig the msm liquid when I am applying my “skin recipe” on my face.So I’m getting the same ingredients without them being in a drink shot.
HCG Question of the Day – Mints and MSM
HCG Question of the Day – MSM
Comment: I have been on your site and it is informative even for a newbie. I do have a few questions for you though.
Question 1. What can you use for mints while on the HCG protocol? My husband likes eclipse they are sugar free, but we don’t want ANY issues with stalls because of it.
ANSWER – I think as long as you get sugar free mints you will be ok. You could probably “upgrade” even more and find some sugar free that don’t have aspartame. Look at the ingredients and just watch out for malotdextrin or carb like filler (rice powder etc). I use a “breath tonic” that is made by Herb Pharm. This stuff is the “real deal” It will even clean out your sinuses – LOL…It is spendy in local health food stores but I bet you can get it at a better price online. It does have grain alcohol but never hindered my releases.
Question 2. MSM- I have powder- then I seen liquid was better. How do I use it topically for skin?
Answer – I put some on my fingertips apply it and if I am applying another layer of another product I use the blow dryer on cool setting to dry it before the next layer of product.
Question 3. – I have family members that have very bad eczema and was wondering if I can use it topically for them too?
ANSWER – I don’t see why not.You can also get msm in cream or lotion form too if that is easier for you to do it topically.
Question 3 – Eczema sometimes takes the elasticity out of your skin because of the dryness. I started taking it yesterday, I JUST got it yesterday, please inform.
Thank you!
ANSWER – As far as MSM – The powder just tastes more bitter than the liquid.. If you decide to get the liquid to take internally use the powder after you mix it for your topical needs for your kids
(that’s what I would do) 😉
What and Where I buy:

HCG Questions and Answers
HCG Diet Questions and Answers…ACV,MCT,MSM and More
I keep meaning to create a FAQ page on this website. Here is a confession…. I am a terrible typist so by the time I answer everyone’s individual questions the day is done and it is time for bed – LOL.
So for now I am going to feature a question I am asked each day.
I also recorded a couple vlogs which was inspired by these questions. I have added the vlogs below for your convenience.
And Now today’s AWESOME question or should I say Questions –
Question – First of all what I wanted to know if you lost any more weight in your experiment round? –
ANSWER – My first week I did great then I became a “slacker” as far as protocol. As each week went by I realized I was experiencing what Dr Simeon was talking about as far as the abnormal fat. HCG had done its duty and I didn’t have the abnormal fat that the hcg could work on and I began to get just plain “starving like” hungry just like he said would happen. My initial loss was good and became my new “set point” which was great. My inch loss went well and I lost sizes which was awesome. In hind site I should have never planned on a 40 day round – silly me. No regrets though, It was a good learning experience and a way to help others when they get to that point.
Question – When it comes to the MCT and ACV shot, what time of day do you take it? –
ANSWER – I think it is best before you have dinner
Question – Do you do it on phase 3 also?
Phase 4?
For life?
ANSWER – So far I an still doing the ACV everyday in the AM and if I want to reduce my appetite before dinner I take a MCT shot. But when I update mt posts it gets me to thinking about what I have done in the past and think I should go back to doing what I was doing in the past because of the great benefits.
Question – How did the MSM powder work?
ANSWER – I mix it in water but found that using the liquid msm was far less bitter.
I think taking msm in a liquid form makes the difference because your body can absorb it more efficiently.
Question – What phase do you take yours on? Phase 1-4 for a lifetime? And what time of the day. –
ANSWER – I wish I had used msm as soon as I started HCG. because it helps with our skin, joints, muscles etc I feel it can be a life long supplement.
Question – To answer the time of day should I take MSM?
ANSWER – I don’t think it matters, but currently I take mine in the morning mixing it with collagen.
Question – any other advice on products that work on tightening your skin? and the round you used them on please.
ANSWER – Colostrum and Antler Velvet has been great along with the Skin recipe I’ve been doing on my face. I think adding those 2 supplements have been helping tone my skin overall as well.
Question – Did you ever get massages done while on p2? i know your not suppose to, but someone on a blog said they did and it helped their releases? Just wondering if you did.
ANSWER – Didn’t have any back or body massages but if pedicures count then yes 😉 When the mancurist massages my legs she adds oil along with the lotion.
Question – What time of the day do you take the California kickers?
ANSWER – I would either divide the serving up and do half mid morning then mid afternoon or the whole thing mid afternoon.
I hope posting this helps many others with the same questions 🙂

Immune Factors
Fight back with Colostrum Plus! Nature gave you a strong immune defense network, but that system gets depleted as you age. Normal physical and mental stress can also wear down your defenses. Colostrum is the only supplement you can take to add back antibodies and immune factors. Colostrum Plus helps you maintain a strong immune system with dual action support in the bloodstream and also in the GI tract. It helps maintain a robust intestinal lining and promote healthy intestinal flora.
Clinical Studies show wide ranging health benefits for Colostrum including a significant increase in lean body mass and increases in anaerobic power, performance time, and sprint performance when compared to whey.
Symbiotics guarantees per serving minimums of 1.5% Lactoferrin (14 mg), 25% Immunoglobulins (240 mg IG), and 3% Proline-Rich Polypeptides (29 mg PRP), Colostrum’s most important component. Our unique BIO-Lipid coating insures bioavailability. Without this protective layer, other Colostrums can be destroyed by stomach acids and offer limited benefit.
