Got the okay to ask...what's the best brand of homeopathic hcg?

I emailed the admins and got the okay to ask about brand names of homeopathic hcg. Because it doesn't require a prescription, it's not illegal to purchase online, and therefore okay to discuss brand names on these boards. We just cannot post links where to buy them.

That being said, I purchased Natural Health Labs homeopathic hcg. Anyone have any experience with this brand?

What brand(s) do you recommend?

I did a 30 day round and lost a total of preload 16.6, 13.8 postload I also lost 14 inches. Keep in mind my week 3 I didnt lose anything but in week 4 I had great losses again I didnt experience any hunger either. I used a 2oz bottle and that ran out on day 30. I have purchased another bottle to start another round around halloween.

You would think a 2oz bottle from whatever supplier would last the same length but it doesnt from what I have read from different people, good idea always having another on hand I wished I did when mines ran out as I could have kept going as I was loseing well the 4th week. Goodluck on your load days

I'm using the Fusion from Netrition, partly because I felt that I could trust Netrition, and also because the product does not contain alcohol. In my research, I thought that I read that alcohol can decrease the potency of the HCG. Does anyone know if this is true? If the Intermountain brand does not, maybe I'll try that next time since it's less than half the price of the Fusion. Can anyone who has the Intermountain confirm one way or the other? I couldn't find the information on their website.

Thanks!

Thanks, Tempted. Granted, I only saw that written in one place but it was enough to make me consider that as a factor before making a purchase. I think I will get that brand when I need to refill.

Well, I went ahead and ordered the Intermountain hcg.... Now hopefully either it or the NHL will get here pronto! If they get here at the same time, I'm not sure which one I'll try, hehehehe.

Interestingly, though, upon reading the ingredients in the Intermountain hcg, I noticed they are strikingly similar to the Fusion ones...

I am using the Natural Health Labs hhcg. I got 2/3 of the way thru the bottle on my first round (23 dose days). I am using it now for my 2nd round, but will need to order more. I am happy with these drops I am a cheapskate and took the risk:blush:!!

I have seen prices starting at $15.00. Why is there such a huge price range? So how would one know if they are getting something that works or a scam?
Not to be a kill joy, but my other thought is that maybe this is a placebo effect.
One would lose weight on 500 cal. but it would be hard to stick to. So are the drops the "motivation" that most of us need? Are you truly not hungry on the product?
My sister and brother in law are losing weight using it and I am really tempted to try it
but still a bit skeptical of being ripped off.
Oh yeah, my other question is, has anyone been seeing recurring charges on their credit
cards after ordering this?
Thank you all for your advice. I wish you great success!

I've dieted for a lot of years (like 35) and this is the first time my thighs have lost so many inches in the first month. Previously I'd lose in my upper body which almost made me look worse as it exaggerated my heavier lower body. I've also not experienced hunger beyond mealtimes and think after so many weeks on so few calories would feel like garbage by now. I don't. I feel great.

Based solely on the way the weight is coming off, no way am I experiencing a placebo effect.

I bought mine from Yavonae. So I am thinking they'd be responsible for any reoccuring charges. For two 2 oz bottles, no alcohol, 3x orange and cherry flavored. I will buy again. I have felt hunger outside of meal time but only one day and that was the day TOM was showing up and usually that day, I would totally fall off the wagon eat everything in sight. It was not severe hunger or cravings and I was satisfied with the meal I had prepared. I was doing low carb but also trying to limit my calories along with it and honestly I felt like crap somedays, I would get shaky when I needed to eat. I started the drops and sticking to the protocol and my energy is up. I feel great, I am for the first time losing that fat that sticks out the underneath of your bra in the back, and from my under arm flappage. I have not weighed myself since my period started, but my last loss was at 16 pounds in like 12 days. I can't see after trying to lose weight for the last 10 years and trying everything from slim fast to fasting to low carb, that this is me.........it has to be the hhcg. It's pretty amazing stuff.

My dd's drops came from Netrition who is runs this board. If you are afraid of ordering from an unknown site, go with the Fusion from there. My dd has lost 15 pounds in 20 days using them. I am not doing the the hcg but have pretty closely followed what she is eating and then adding to it since I couldn't live on just 500 calories a day with no drops. I have lost 4 this month. I'd be tickled to have lost the 15 lbs. in the same time. It is well worth your money and your time to give it a try!
