Medical Disclaimer: Clinical HCG Diet does not give medical advice, nor engage in the practice of medicine. Clinical HCG Diet, LLC facilitates the transfer of client-provided medical history to an outside independent licensed physician, who determines whether or not each client is a good candidate for the HCG diet program. Approved client prescriptions are administered by the physician at physician's discretion only. All prescriptions are shipped directly to the client from a licensed US pharmacy, in accordance with federal law. Clients are encouraged to speak with their primary care physician if certain medical conditions exist. No suggestions or advice on ClinicalHCGDiet.com or through other means of communication should be construed as medical advice. Although many clients have experienced substantial weight loss while on the HCG diet, the FDA requires that we state the following: HCG has not been demonstrated to be an effective adjunctive therapy in the treatment of obesity. There is no substantial evidence that it 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-restricted diets.
