The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition* reports that HCG helps to mobilize fat deposits that have formed around the hips, thighs, abdomen, and upper arms. Once this fat has become mobile within the body, it is available for use as a source of fuel. Research indicates that, when administered in small daily doses, it helps the body burn more fat when combined with a low-calorie diet and actually facilitates a targeted weight loss. It should be noted that a pregnant woman can excrete as much as 1 million units of HCG per day.
