The following is what Dr. Simeons recommended eating in
the HCG diet protocol that he developed after extensive research on the hormone.
Breakfast
For breakfast, you
need to keep only to black coffee (organic preferred) and several types of tea. The types of tea that you can have are organic
green tea, organic Wu Long tea, organic chamomile tea, and Yerba Mate tea. You can have as much coffee and tea that you
want as long as you do not add anything else into the drinks. Also, they should be made with pure water and not tap water.
Lunch and Dinner
For lunch and dinner there are certain proteins that you should
eat. They include organic fed beef or veal, organic skinless chicken breast, and a couple different types of fish which are low in mercury.
Along with
the protein, you can choose from a list of vegetables such as spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, and celery. Only one
kind of vegetable should be eaten with a meal. Do not add any oil or fats to cook these vegetables, instead boil, grill,
or steam them. Along with the vegetables, a small apple, small grapefruit, and a cup of strawberries can be eaten as long
as they are organic.
Don't eat the same exact meals for lunch and dinner the same day. So, if you chose to eat halibut
and spinach for lunch, you would then have to pick a different protein source and vegetable for dinner. There are certain
herbs and seasonings that you can use for your foods as well.
If you find that you are hungry during the day, you
can have all the coffee and tea that you want throughout the day. You can also have as much water as you want and are encouraged
to drink as much water as you like.
Although the HCG diet plan may not seem appealing, you are only on this phase
of the diet for the first 21 to 26 days of the diet. After that phase, your metabolism is set back to normal and then you
can eat what you want, when you want, as long as you eat organic and avoid processed food.
