NO clue whatsoever. I just took the drops I received in the mail. Never paid attention to whether it had alcohol or not. i right now have no idea if the drops I am using right now have the alcohol or not. But I don't care. They work!! You should do just fine!!

I've done the Mediral hcg detox drops - i guess i just got comfortable with them last time.

Kind of curious about the others though

Oh, I did check the bottle and mine are in an alcohol base. So yes, the alcohol ones work!! I have taken these drops forever that I never notice a taste or burning sensation. But for the first time, you might.

I couldn't find the information on their website.

Thanks!
alcohol does not decrease the potency despite claims otherwise it is a preservative and stabilizer and even with the RX kind mixing for sublingual we use rum or other alcohol ( i use rum )

Here's an interesting note:

With my first bottle of Intermountain, I noticed a very strong sour/bitter taste after I would swallow it, to the point of making me gag and dread dosing each time. I just started my second bottle, and there is no taste whatsoever. The color is much clearer as well (as opposed to kinda yellow with the first bottle). So did I get a dud bottle this time, or was my first bottle rotten, lol?

I like dosing without gagging, but I don't like the thoughts of not getting all the "stuff" I need....

My 1st 2 bottles were a yellowish colour and a little sour, my 3rd bottle was clear and tasteless I thought that was a dud bottle but all 3 of them worked.

I got my 4 bottles of Innermountain pellets today so I am stocked. They came really fast! Each bottle says a 40 day round. They didn't come with any instruction, so I was kind of surprised. Oh well, I have all of you!

Hi Dawn!
When I activate my homeopathic hcg, I hold the bottle in one hand and with the other, I tap or pop the bottom of the bottle 10 times. That is it!!

Glad you got the pellets. You just take them 3 times a day 4 pellets each time.

I use VOX pellets and adore them. I never have hunger and have good energy. I'm so rarely hungry that here are times it's 11pm and I'll realize I forgot to take my last dose.

Plus, I love the ease and taste. Tempted - I've heard they have a very long shelf life.

I really like the vox pellets for the same reasons you have. I think someone said if they are opened the shelf life is 2 years and unopened is 5 years.

I just caught the Dr. Oz episode on this and was so in awe I quickly began researching and came across this site. Call me a skeptic but I feel like common sense will tell you if you go on a 500 a day calorie diet naturally you will experience rapid weight loss. What confuses me is that users are reporting absolutely NO HUNGER to the point that maintaining such a radical diet is feasible. What about cravings (especially around PMS time for the ladies)? I have been on a regimen of a healthy diet and regular exercise for the past few months and have lost 25lbs. My body is fighting the last 10-15lbs I'm wondering if this will help me to bust through the plateau.

I am debating this subject still. I have already lost 20 pounds since Jan18th on my low carb shake diet so i hate to stray off too far from that diet. I wonder what the drops would do PLUS the 6 shakes a day?

hhcg drops

Question for everyone,

I am wondering if anyone knows of a reliable brand of hhcg drops that can be purchased from a store instead of ordered online. I did a 40 day round of injections in the past with great success and planned to start another round Saturday, I am finally mentally ready to undo the damage from the holidays, problem is it looks like my hcg might not be here in time. I am trying to locate a bottle of hhcg drops that way I could go ahead and start loading Saturday like planned and then switch to injections when it comes or if all goes well with the drops it would be nice not to feel like a pin cushion. I noticed one of the big chain drug stores advertised "the hcg solution" but it also says hormone free so that doesn't sound right to me, any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I bought HCG Fusion at a local health food store and so far it works. They sell that here on Netrition as well (for a much better price I might add) but I was impatient and got it at the store.
