Diet Doc creates customized weight loss programs using a modernized hCG diet plan that is found to have many health benefits according to sources.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 15, 2012

Diet Docs hCG diet plan is created and managed by a team of doctors, nutritionists and weight loss coaches. Following a personalized ketogenic diet, the hCG diet plan consists of four progressive stages with each re-introducing essential food groups. Dr. Rao Medical Director for Diet Doc says the goal of our weight loss diet plan is to have the body produce ketones which are compounds that the body can use to produce energy, a contrast to the average body that uses glucose from simple carbohydrates like breads and pastas for energy. A state of ketosis in the body is present with the lack of glucose in the bloodstream, the body draws on fat deposits for fuel, creating energizing ketones in the blood. Switching the body from being a carb-burning machine to a fat-burning one causes one to lose weight and even lower blood pressure.

Diet Doc also uses pharmaceutical-grade hCG fortified with energizing vitamin b12 as an integral part of their medical weight loss program. Offering the hCG treatments in three forms: injections, pills and drops, each patient has the freedom to choose how they would like to administer the hormone. hCG is a hormone that is naturally produced in pregnant women. It is known that this hormone works as a natural appetite suppressant as well as triggers the body to use fat as a source of energy.

Diet Doc shows their passion for helping people get on a healthy track by making their medical weight loss program affordable for almost anyone. Offering a promising solution to prevent the many health conditions that come with weight gain and obesity, Julie Wright Founder and CEO for Diet Doc says our mission is more just than getting people to lose weight and lower blood pressure, we truly work to make a life-long changes in people so they can live a long and healthy life.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans Announces Medical Weight Loss Program to Lower Blood Pressure

THURSDAY, Oct. 11 (HealthDay News) -- For overweight people with diabetes, intensive exercise and dieting not only aids weight loss, it can also help train their fat cells to produce a hormone believed to boost production of "good" cholesterol, according to a new study.

And this so-called "good" cholesterol, or HDL cholesterol, has been linked to positive effects for cardiovascular health.

The new study, from researchers at The Methodist Hospital in Houston, included data on overweight and obese people with type 2 diabetes who were taking part in a multicenter clinical trial examining how increased physical activity and reduced calorie intake affected their risk for cardiovascular disease.

The participants were randomly assigned to either an intensive diet and exercise program (the "lifestyle intervention" group) or a program that offered only diabetes support and education and no lifestyle changes (the "control" group).

After one year, the lifestyle intervention group had achieved significant improvements in a measure of total fat called "adiposity," fitness, blood sugar levels and fat levels, the investigators found.

In addition, while levels of "bad" LDL cholesterol did not change, levels of the fat hormone adiponectin and HDL cholesterol did increase: Total adiponectin produced by fat cells increased about 12 percent and HDL cholesterol increased nearly 10 percent in the people who made lifestyle changes, compared to those in the control group, the research showed.

It's well established that adiponectin plays a role in fat burning and sugar storage. This study suggests that the hormone also encourages the liver to produce HDL cholesterol, the study authors pointed out in a hospital news release.

"What we're learning is that even overweight people who are physically active and eating a healthy diet are getting benefits from the lifestyle change," principal investigator Dr. Christie Ballantyne, director of the Center for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention, part of the Methodist DeBakey Heart and Vascular Center at The Methodist Hospital in Houston, said in the news release.

"When you exercise and diet, you're improving the function of your adipose tissue, your heart and vascular systems, and even muscle performance. You're getting a lot of benefits that you may not see by just looking at the weight on a scale," he added.

The study was released online in advance of publication in an upcoming print issue of the Journal of Lipid Research.

Almost anyone with a smartphone can now videoconference with Diet Doc physicians, weight loss coaches, nurses, and other weight loss staff 6 days a week. In these physician supervised Skype meetings, a Diet Doc physician will evaluate the patient, determining the best nutrition diet and evaluate the possibility of prescription hCG treatment based on numerous factors, including age, mobility, health, weight, and long term weight loss goals.

CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- The high-fat and sugar-rich Western diet typical of fast-food dramatically increases the risk of stroke or death at a younger age, Canadian researchers say.

Lead researcher Dr. Dale Corbett, scientific director of the Heart and Stroke Foundation Center for Stroke Recovery, and colleagues gave sedentary rats unlimited access to both nutritional food pellets and a daily selection of common junk food items including cookies, sausage and cupcakes.

The animals were given access to both water and a 30 percent sucrose solution designed to imitate soft drinks. Like humans, the rats greatly preferred to consume the treats.

The rats were at an age roughly equivalent to age 16-22 in humans.

The study found the high-sugar, high-sodium diet induced most symptoms of metabolic syndrome -- a combination of high levels of cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure and obesity -- in rats after only two months.

"I think we'll soon start to see people in their 30s or 40s having strokes, having dementia, because of this junk food diet," Corbett said in a statement. "Young people will have major, major problems much earlier in life."

Corbett emphasized the importance of preventing metabolic syndrome with regular exercise and a balanced diet.

"We're not sure whether metabolic syndrome can be reversed," Corbett said. "If it can't, and we continue to live and eat like this, then we're each a ticking time bomb of health problems."

The findings were presented at the Canadian Stroke Congress in Calgary, Alberta.

More men and women consume diet drinks, according to government data. Meanwhile, the consumption of sugar in regular soda dropped. (Photo: Mario Tama, Getty Images)

by Nanci Hellmich, USA TODAY Diet drink consumption has increased over the past decade, a trend that reinforces other research showing intake of calories from sugar in regular soda has decreased, government statistics out today show.

"The data suggest that diet drinks may have replaced sugar drinks during this time," says the study's lead author Tala Fakhouri, an epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The new diet drink analysis shows that the change in diet drink consumption occurred for both women (up from 18% in 2000 to 21% in 2010) and men (up from 14% to 19% in the same period).

Still, only about 20% of people in the USA consume diet drinks on any given day with the majority (80%) not drinking them, the report finds. Diet drinks included calorie-free and low-calorie versions of soda, fruit drinks, energy drinks, sports drinks and carbonated water. Diet drinks did not include unsweetened teas or coffees or 100% fruit juice.

Meanwhile, the consumption of sugar found in regular soda has dropped from roughly 150 calories a day in 2000 to 91 calories a day in 2008.

But when it comes to calories from all sugary drinks, including sodas, fruit drinks, energy drinks, sports drinks and sweetened bottled waters, males consume an average of 178 calories a day; females consume 103 calories, according to other government data.

Overall, about half of the population, ages 2 and older, consume sugary drinks on any given day. Among boys 2 to 19, 70% consume these types of drinks while 40% of adult women consume them.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans announced their unique prescription green coffee extract weight loss pills. These prescription weight loss pills are the only prescription strength green coffee extract pills available, and are found to promote fast weight loss.

Dalas, TX (PRWEB) October 10, 2012

According to an epidemiological study conducted in Italy (http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6882/6/9/), coffee has the greatest antioxidant capacity among the most commonly consumed beverages. The effect of green coffee bean extract (GCBE) on fat accumulation and body weight in mice was assessed with the objective of investigating the effect of GCBE on mild obesity. The results suggest that caffeine is a suppressor of fat absorption. Green coffee bean extract is effective against weight gain and fat accumulation by inhibition of fat absorption and activation of fat metabolism in the liver, thereby resulting in effective and fast weight loss.

Recent research of green coffee extract was published in the Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity Journal. The exercise was a 22-week crossover study to examine the efficacy and safety of a commercial green coffee extract product at reducing weight and body mass in 16 overweight adults. This study shows that green coffee extract may be an effective nutraceutical in reducing weight in pre-obese adults, and may be an inexpensive means of preventing obesity in overweight adults. (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22291473) The study concludes that one promising nutraceutical is green coffee extract, which contains high concentrations of chlorogenic acids that are known to influence glucose and fat metabolism apart from offering other health benefits.

With adult weight gain and obesity at epidemic proportions, the problems of cost as well as the potential side effects of prescription weight loss pills have led overweight adults to try anything that may aid fast weight loss. With affordable and effective prescription green coffee extract diet pills from Diet Doc Weight Loss, anyone who needs to lose weight fast can. When green coffee extract diet pills are combined with Diet Doc's personalized physician managed and doctor designed prescription hCG weight loss diet, the effectiveness of the total weight loss program is compounded exponentially.

Washington, October 10 (ANI): A diet high in saturated fat raises levels of endothelial lipase (EL), an enzyme associated with the development of atherosclerosis, according to Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) researchers.

Conversely their study, conducted in mice, found that a diet high in omega-3 polyunsaturated fat lowers levels of this enzyme.

The findings establish a "new" link between diet and atherosclerosis and suggest a novel way to prevent cardiovascular heart disease.

In addition, the research may help to explain why the type 2 diabetes drug rosiglitazone (Avandia) has been linked to heart problems.

Like other lipases, EL plays a role in the metabolism of blood lipoproteins, which are complexes of lipids (fats) and proteins. EL, which is secreted by macrophages (a type of white blood cell) and other cells in arteries, was discovered in 1999.

Studies have shown that elevated EL is associated with atherosclerosis and inflammation. Until now, however, little was known about how dietary fats might affect this enzyme, said study leader Richard Deckelbaum, MD, the Robert R. Williams Professor of Nutrition professor of pediatrics and of epidemiology and director of the Institute of Human Nutrition at CUMC.

In the current study, a strain of mice susceptible to atherosclerosis was fed a normal diet enriched with either palmitic acid (a common saturated fat) or eicosapentaenoic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid, or polyunsaturated fat, found in fish oil, among other foods).

After 12 weeks, the mice's aortas were examined for changes in the expression of EL and inflammatory factors. Aortas of mice fed the saturated fat diet showed a significant increase in EL and detrimental changes in inflammatory factors, while those of mice fed the polyunsaturated fat diet showed a significant decrease in EL and beneficial changes in inflammatory factors. Studies in cultured macrophages showed similar results.

"Our study identifies a new way in which the high-saturated-fat Western diet could lead to the development of atherosclerosis, though, of course, these results need to be confirmed in human studies," said Dr. Deckelbaum.

"The findings might also explain some of the cardiovascular benefits that have been attributed to omega-3 fatty acids," he said.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans announces the first prescription weight loss pill of it's kind. This prescription weight loss pill that contains Green Coffee Extract is the prescription diet pill of it's kind in the USA.

Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) October 09, 2012

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans announces the first prescription weight loss pill of it's kind. This prescription weight loss pill that contains Green Coffee Extract is the prescription diet pill of it's kind in the USA.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans announced their unique prescription weight loss pills containing green coffee extract for fast weight loss. Green coffee bean is rich in chlorogenic acid, a polyphenol anti-oxidant which is also the active ingredient and its related compounds. It isnt present in commercial coffee as the roasting process breaks down chlorogenic acid. These weight loss drops from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans is standardized to 50% chlorogenic acid. By inhibiting the release of G6P (glucose 6 phosphate, this extract reduce glycogenolysis in the liver (conversion of glycogen to glucose) and stabilizes blood sugar. As a result, lesser amounts of sugar are released into the blood stream, thereby helping people maintain the health blood sugar levels.

Additionally, these prescription weight loss pills boost fat mobilization by the liver especially while in ketosis to keep up with the energy requirements of the body, resulting in fast weight loss. hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans recommends a starting dose of 2 prescription weight loss pills a day, each containing 400 mg of green coffee extract. Clinial studies also showed that pills containing green coffee extract are extremely beneficial for patients with type II diabetes or insulin resistance as they could help them ketoadapt faster by shortening their Phase II.

According to an epidemiological study conducted in Italy, coffee has the greatest antioxidant capacity among the commonly consumed beverages. The effect of green coffee bean extract (GCBE) on fat accumulation and body weight in mice was assessed with the objective of investigating the effect of GCBE on mild obesity. These results suggested that caffeine was a suppressor of fat absorption, while chlorogenic acid was found to be partially involved in the suppressive effect of GCBE that resulted in the reduction of hepatic TG level. So, GCBE is possibly effective against weight gain and fat accumulation by inhibition of fat absorption and activation of fat metabolism in the liver, thereby resulting in effective and fast weight loss.

Recent research published in the Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity Journal about a 22-week crossover study to examine the efficacy and safety of a commercial green coffee extract product GCA at reducing weight and body mass in 16 overweight adults showed that GCA may be an effective nutraceutical in reducing weight in preobese adults, and may be an inexpensive means of preventing obesity in overweight adults. The study concluded that one promising nutraceutical is green coffee extract, which contains high concentrations of chlorogenic acids that are known to influence glucose and fat metabolism apart from offering other health benefits.

With adult weight gain and obesity becoming global problems, the additional problems of the cost as well as the potential side effects of prescription weight loss pills have led overweight and obese adults to try nutraceuticals that may aid fast weight loss. These affordable and effective prescription weight loss pills from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans containing green coffee extract address this need and help dieters combat the aforementioned problems. When combined with their personalized physician managed and doctor designed weight loss diet, these prescription weight loss pills enhance the effectiveness of the program to promote fast weight loss.
