After years of failed diets Dr Nadja Hermann weighed over 23 stone at the age of 30. All her life, she had heard and read about hundreds of reasons why diets wouldn't work for her. But when her weight started to seriously affect her health, she took a hard look at the science and realised that most of what she believed about dieting was a myth. What was more, those very myths were preventing her from losing weight.Forget clean eating, paleo, or fasting — it was conquering these elements of ‘Fat Logic’ that finally led to Hermann achieving a healthy weight. One and a half years later, she weighed 10 stone, and has maintained that weight to this day. Now, using humour, the insight she’s acquired, and a dose of science, Hermann debunks widespread lies about weight loss, and shows how it is possible to attain a healthy weight.

    As new technology and research becomes available, treatment protocols evolve, hopefully for the better. Shouldn’t the HCG diet be the same? First published in 1954, the traditional HCG diet, as seen on many of your favorite daytime TV shows, including Dr. Oz, has helped millions achieve weight loss success. However, the strict tone and rigid calorie restrictions have been very polarizing. While the concepts and theory that inspired the traditional diet are still very relevant, the protocol itself is still stuck in the 50s and in dire need of revision. Introducing HCG 2.0, authored and developed by Dr. Zach LaBoube, founder of InsideOut Wellness and Weight Loss, HCG 2.0 utilizes current research into a variety of topics such as low-carb, Ketosis dieting, the high-protein diets of Inuit Cultures and innovative new food statistics such as Estimated Glycemic Load, Fullness Factor and Caloric Ratios to add smart calories to the diet, thus making it a safer, more realistic weight loss option for the working adult. HCG 2.0 uses a BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) calculation to determine the amount of calories you’re allowed to consume. This is a significant variation from the traditional diet that only allows each dieter only 500 calories per day, whether male or female, big or small. HCG 2.0 also uses basic food chemistry to give you a wider variety of protein options and increases portion sizes of items higher in nutritional value, but void of empty calories that only contribute to weight gain. Whether you’re looking to lose weight or simply eat healthy, HCG 2.0 will accommodate. Understand Ketosis and the benefits to low-carb living. Learn the difference between positive calories and negative calories. Understand how to cut your caloric intake by 200-300 calories per day by simply addressing unnoticed habits, and much more. There’s a smarter way to lose
