Some artificial sweeteners can actually cause weight gain: hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans releases sugar free diet foods that will not cause weight gain

The American Heart and Diabetes Association recommends that artificial sweeteners may be helpful to those who consume too much sugar. But studies show that some artificial sweeteners may actually cause weight gain, making them counterproductive. Diet Doc now offers sugar free diet foods that taste great but will not cause weight gain.

The American Heart Association recently released a study declaring that Americans consume too much sugar and in an attempt to curb the obesity epidemic, artificial sweeteners should be used to cut calories. However, other studies contradict the AHA's recommendation, claiming that artificial sweeteners can actually cause weight gain. hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans suggests that consumers, particularly those on a weight loss diet should actually avoid artificial sweeteners, as they will slow down fast weight loss. WebMD further explains this counter intuitive finding, offering that "For example, drinking a diet soft drink rather than a sugary one at lunch may reduce the calorie count of the meal, but it may trick the body into thinking that other sweet items don't have as many calories either." In order to avoid a counterproductive diet, Diet Doc uses only natural alternative sweeteners in their diet foods, understanding how the mechanisms of fast weight loss work in the human body.

CEO of hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Weight Loss Plans, Julie Wright asserts that "We know that artificial sweeteners slow down weight loss by as much as half. This is because the liver works as one of the largest fat burning organs in the body and when it's busy processing artificial sweeteners, it loses a natural ability to lose weight fast." Armed with this information, Diet Doc only uses natural sweeteners like stevia to sweeten their diet foods and recipes in the Diet Doc Cookbook. Diet Doc realizes the necessity to counteract clients' cravings for decadent sweets, but also remains focused on providing the kind of fast weight loss that the hCG weight loss diet is known for. Thus, if clients on Diet Doc's hCG weight loss diet begin to plateau, or weight loss begins to slow, use of stevia may have to be discontinued. Diet Doc physicians constantly monitor clients to ensure that fast weight loss goals are continually being met and that health remains improved. Included in Diet Doc's delicious sugar free diet foods are low calorie options like weight loss shakes, Walden Farms condiments, Carb Zero breads, nutritious and tasty low calorie soups, and sweet Diet Doc weight loss support bars.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans custom tailors a weight loss diet around each client with consideration of the clients age, weight, lifestyle, weight loss goals, and overall health. Once these factors are established, Diet Doc then pairs prescription hCG with an individualized nutrition plan to initiate fast weight loss. With a prescription hCG diet form Diet Doc, clients lose an average of 1 pound per day. If this fast weight loss begins to taper, Diet Doc will reevaluate the client and make any necessary changes, including disallowing natural or artificial sweeteners. Dieters who may have hit a plateau or simply have tried diets that have not worked are encouraged to try the prescription hCG diet from Diet Doc Weight Loss Plans.
