subject: Stevia And The Hcg Diet [print this page] Just about anyone you talk to who has been able to lose weight with a prescription HCG weight loss plan will say that Stevia helped them the entire way. Stevia, a natural sweetener from South America has been used for hundreds and hundreds of years. Stevia, as a zero calorie natural sweetener can prove to be worth its weight in gold when dieting because it aids in the reduction of cravings for candy and fatty deserts.
With the combined efforts of the prescription HCG assisting the hypothalamus gland (the gland that regulates the body's cravings) and the Stevia assisting with the reduction of cravings for sweets and fatty foods, many find that after the first week of being on the prescription HCG weight loss program, the very low calorie portion of the diet is far less demanding.
Stevia is featured in a variety of flavors including English toffee, vanilla creme, peppermint, root beer, cinnamon, apricot nectar, grape, Valencia orange, dark chocolate, chocolate raspberry and lemon.
Because there are so many different flavors of Stevia, there is sure to be a flavor to satisfy just about anyone's cravings. Using Stevia in an herbal tea is sure to add to and compliment any HCG food preference as it combines the natural benefits of herbal tea with the craving curbing advantages of Stevia.
Stevia, a natural product from South America is extracted from the leaves of the small, green Stevia rebaudiana plant. Stevia is said to be 30 times sweeter than sugar and offers a delicious, refreshing and zero calorie taste to anything it is added to. Therefore, it helps people stick to a very low calorie diet and lose weight.
In addition to helping people maintain the demands of their diet by offering a zero calorie solution to their sugar cravings, Stevia has also been linked to the treatment and prevention of breast cancer and diabetes.
Recent studies indicate that there may be a physiological defect in the connection between the hypothalamus and the stomach of many obese individuals. This defect prevents these individuals from recognizing when it is they are full, or in other words when they have provided sufficient nutrients to their body. Studies are now suggesting that Stevia can assist in the repairing of this defect to create the 'on/off switch' in the connection between the stomach and the brain.
Using Stevia as a sweetener and food enhancer is believed by many to be one of the greatest items on the list of approved HCG foods and supplements. It is all natural and provides no negative side effects; moreover it offers benefits that can truly assist dieters in reaching their weight loss goals.
