Disclaimer:
these weight reduction treatments include
oral HCG or an injection of HCG, a drug
which has not been approved by the food
and drug administration as safe and effective
in the treatment of obesity or weight
control. There is no substantial evidence
that HCG increases weight loss beyond
that resulting from caloric restriction,
that it causes a more attractive or "normal"
distribution of fat, or that it decreases
the hunger and discomfort associated with
calorie-restrictive diets.
