Is the homeopathy HCG as good as Rx one?

I have been reading that the homeopathy HCG is no good - does not even have HCG. Does anyone know about this? Do you have to get the Rx version in order for it to work?

I have done 5000 units of Rx HCG five times. I actually do better on the homeopathic formula. I have less hunger and lose better.

I guess you just have to understand homeopathy to know how it works (I don't). I know that they use minute traces of HCG to make it, and while it doesn't have actual HCG, it mimics it so that it has the same effect on your body. Many people that use hHCG have similar fat loss when body composition is tested compared to other diets that lose lean body mass.

I have lost my weight using the hormone free HHCG drops. They really suppress my appetite. I've noticed different brands have different ingredients in them. I have 2 different brands and I checked the ingredient list and compared them.

Thanks

Thanks so much for your responses. Nice to hear because I had read that with the homeopathy version you lose weight because of the calorie restriction but it doesn't cause fat lss from those hard areas. Glad to hear that is not the case.

I don't believe that. I have a hard time losing weight as many of us do. My normal (when I'm not dieting) daily calorie intake averages around only 900. Seriously people lose weight on 1200 but on 900 calories I'm huge.

I had a bad batch of rx HCG once so for three weeks I didn't lose anything on it and I was only eating approx 380 cals a day!

But, with a good batch of HCG (even homeopathic) I can lose on 480 cals a day.

Recent research shows that for many people the answer to weight loss is not calories in, calories out. If it was i would totally have been a thin person eating only 900 cals a day. It has more to do with hormones and its very complicated. HCG is a hormone therapy and it works for those of us that couldn't lose an ounce by any other means.

I have had better success when using homeopathic and although the injections are easier I probably won't use them again.

Every person is an individual and what works for one doesn't necessarily work for another.

We are all individuals and the best person to decide what is best for you..is YOU!

I personally have done really well on the RX and because I know my body is screwed up anyway from years of being on the diet rollercoaster I decided that RX is best for me. No hunger...great losses....stabilized well....

Which of the two brands did you like the best? I want to get some asap! I just took a RX Hcg for a month and lost NOTHING. I've done the homeopathic and I've lost 22lbs before.
