HOW DOES THE SCI-SLIM HCG DIET WORK?
HCG seeks out the stored nutrients in the fat cells and breaks them down into calories and nutrients which your body consumes. This naturally stored energy supplies the body with upwards of 2000 calories per day, ending traditional diet hunger and oftentimes increasing the body’s energy level. Inches, as well as pounds are lost. You will have optimal energy levels and your body will be reshaped on the program.

WHAT ABOUT WRINKLES AND STRETCH MARKS?
With the Sci-Slim Program, abnormal fat deposits disappear. Double chins, pot bellies, and fat around the thighs are normally the first to go. The program does not deplete the structural and other essential tissue that is needed in order to maintain a healthy look. The body reshapes and maintains a natural, fresh appearance throughout the program, because you are not stripping your body of muscle mass.

WILL I FEEL HUNGRY ON SCI-SLIM'S VERY LOW-CALORIES DIET?
You might feel mild hunger during the first couple of days, however most people report no hunger. This is partly due to your hypothalamus adjusting your metabolic rate, but largely due to the amount of calories circulating in your system from the fat being released due to the Sci-Slim HCG Diet Program.

WOULD JUST A LOW CALORIE DIET ALONE MAKE ME LOSE WEIGHT?
A low calorie diet alone does not distinguish between structural tissue, and fat cell content, so you basically are starving yourself because your body cannot generate fuel. Furthermore, a low calorie diet alone will cause a great decrease in energy levels because you will not have access to the calories in your stored fat. You will not be able to follow a low calorie diet without hunger and irritability.
