  •  
    HCG therapy induced anti-HCG antibodies.  No binding was found to TSH.  But, the concern is the binding to TSH, LH, FSH and resultant hypothyroidism or hypogonadism.

  •  
    Interesting article.  "Small metabolite" of HCG found to provide anti-cancer effect.  The authors called this molecule hCG-like inhibitory Products.  This is very premature information.

FDA says HCG weight-loss products are illegal - - CNN.com Blogs - 0 views

  •  
    I agree with the fact that studies have not shown HCG helps with weight loss in addition to the 500 cal diet. We have many studies in diigo supporting this.  However, the FDA is stepping out of its authorized scope.

  • hese results indicate that HCG has no effects on chemical and hormonal parameters measured and offers no advantage over calorie restriction in promoting weight loss.
  •  
    HCG injections appear to have no effect on weight loss over those following 500 cal diets

  • Subjects receiving HCG injections showed no advantages over those on placebo in respect of any of the variables recorded.
  • weight loss on our diet was similar to that on severely restricted intake
  • We conclude that there is no rationale for the use of HCG injections in the treatment of obesity.
  •  
    HCG versus diet alone shows no difference in weight loss

  • We conclude that there is no scientific evidence that HCG is effective in the treatment of obesity; it does not bring about weight-loss of fat-redistribution, nor does it reduce hunger or induce a feeling of well-being.
  •  
    review of 24 studies, some well designed and others not, lead to conclusion:  "We conclude that there is no scientific evidence that HCG is effective in the treatment of obesity; it does not bring about weight-loss of fat-redistribution, nor does it reduce hunger or induce a feeling of well-being."

  • e sought to duplicate the Asher-Harper study (1973)
  • here was no statistically significant difference in the means of the two groups in number of injections received, weight loss, percent of weight loss, hip and waist circumference, weight loss per injections, or in hunger ratings. HCG does not appear to enhance the effectiveness of a rigidly imposed regimen for weight reduction
  •  
    no improvement in weight loss with HCG injections above that in dietary changes. This isa duplication of the initial Asher-Harper study in 1973 that did show improvement in 20 women.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) in the Treatment of Obesity - 0 views

  • Weight loss was identical between the two groups, and there was no evidence for differential effects on hunger, mood or localized body measurements. Placebo injections, therefore, appear to be as effective as HCG in the treatment of obesity.
  •  
    HCG no more effective than placebo in weight loss

Ineffectiveness of human chorionic gonadotropin in weight reduction: a double-blind study - 0 views

  • There was no statistically significant difference in the means of the two groups in number of injections received, weight loss, percent of weight loss, hip and waist circumference, weight loss per injections, or in hunger ratings
  • HCG does not appear to enhance the effectiveness of a rigidly imposed regimen for weight reduction.
  •
