Back to Your Optimum Self.


Dr. Brennan has found this to be an effective weight loss program where you not only lose weight but inches where you want to lose them: in your hips, waist, chest and stomach. You will also find improvement in your overall health. It is based on research of Dr. Simeons in the 1950's and 60's. He researched obesity over the years trying to discover the contributing factors – genetics, adrenals, pituitary or diabetes. He eventually discovered that it was the dysregulation of the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is the center of satiety and cravings.

Sugars, fats and salt all increase our desire to eat more and many food store chains and processed foods use these tenets to get us to overeat. When we saturate our blood with too many calories the hypothalamus tries to balance the system by storing it as nonfunctional fat.

Many patients who have tried a lot of protocols find they have had more positive and long lasting effects with this program than with other diets. They experience the re-shaping of their body as a positive effect from HcG – the body's breaking down and burning of nonfunctional fat. Many diets break down functional fat which is not what we want. For more information on Dr. Simeons' program click on "Pounds and Inches" in the Resources section below. Hundresds of thousands of people have used this diet protocol with great results.


The Program

This is approximately a two to three month program that will change your life. It also helps you learn to eat in a healthier style that fits your metabolic needs. The program includes the hormone called Human Chorionic Gonadtrophin (HcG), used in homeopathic form. It is easy, safe and effective.

Phase One: Dr. Simeons did not have a phase one but in recent years Kevin Trudeau introduced the idea of doing a detoz before starting the diet. Very few people require the detox, but if it is necessary a detox protocol will be provided for you.

Phase Two: This is where most people start. You will take the HcG in homeopathic form for either 23 or 42 days depending on the amount of weight you want to lose.

Phase Three: Three weeks of no sugar or starch. This is where you help lock in and help stabilize the hypothalamus. This also helps to stabilize your blood sugar.

Phase Four: Is really the rest of your life. You learn how to eat small meals regularly with three snacks daily, continue to drink a significant amount of water every day, and keep alcohol at a minimum. This will help you to balance your energy, support your immune system and maintain a stable body weight. This is a great time to reintroduce foods slowly back into your diet as some people have discovered that they are allergic to foods they have been eating for years

“ Thank you Susan for all your encouragement, useful advice and consistent support through the HcG diet program. I would never have believed the results were obtainable or that I could actually do it, but I have so much respect and trust in you that I decided to try it. With your advice I was also able to balance meals with my two boys and partner, as I ate much of what they did, though in smaller portions.” More >
