HCG Diet Drops: absorption into the body:
Releana is a name brand of HCG drops that is currently available as part of the HCG diet for weight loss. Releana, as well as most quality manufactured HCG drop concentrates work equally well for the HCG diet plan.
The HCG drop is the main ingredient behind the HCG diet program. HCG is a natural protein type hormone. As a protein, it is comprised of amino acids, the building blocks of all proteins. If HCG is simply ingested orally and taken up into the stomach, its fate will be the same as that of any other protein food that is ingested into the stomach. It will be digested and broken down into amino acids that will then be absorbed as food. Its actions as a hormone will therefore be ineffective.
This is the reason that the original HCG weight loss diet protocol required that the HCG be injected into the muscle rather than ingested orally. When a hormone such as HCG is injected into the muscle, the digestive process of the stomach and intestines is bypassed. The HCG is slowly absorbed into the bloodstream, and from there it travels to its target tissues whereby it exerts its fat burning effect. Getting the intact HCG hormone into the bloodstream is key.
Recently, a more favorable method of directly absorbing the HCG has been formulated for weight loss. There is a rich supply of blood vessels under the tongue. By formulating the medication in a way that it can be administered sublingually (under the tongue), the HCG drop is absorbed directly into the bloodstream, but without the unpleasantness of dealing with needles or painful injections. The need for intramuscular HCG injections is thereby eliminated, and the ease of sublingual HCG drops is introduced all the while avoiding the digestive effects of the stomach. At Slim Medical, the HCG weight loss diet protocol utilizes this new innovation of administering the HCG as a drop.
