HCG Foods: New for 2022 Dr. Richard Lipman, M.D. 2021-11-29T16:06:05+00:00

HCG Foods New for the 800 Calorie HCG Diet in Miami, Fl for 2022

New HCG foods for 2022 are based on the popularity of the K eto Diet. Offering very low net carbs and high protein many Keto products that are low in fat can be substituted for the older HCG selections. HCG foods selections for the 800 calorie HCG diet in Miami have changed dramatically in the last 24months. Its all due to the popularity of the Keto Diet and the introduction of many of the prepared foods that can be shared with the HCG and Keto Diets. Not only prepared foods, but fresh foods in supermarkets, frozen foods and even restaurant foods have been changing. Both the HCG Diet and the Keto Diet share the low net carb content. Recent  studies have clearly proven that high protein and low carbs in both HCG and keto diet prevent hunger and promote fullness resulting in fast weight loss.  Other secrets to prevent hunger are reviewed.The only differences are the high fat and high calories in some Keto approved foods. The HCG diet is both calorie and carb dependent unlike the Keto diet. This can easily be avoided in the HCG diet by reading the nutrition label.

HCG Step by Step Diet Plan for 2022

New HCG foods for 2022 in Dr Lipman's planareeasy and inexpensive. In many other HCG diet plans, there is a lot of confusion about what to eat. You may have to buy specific branded meals, expensive or hard to find specialty food, or have to deal with an overly complicated recipes. None of that is necessary with the 800 Calorie HCG Diet Plan. Approved HCG foods are everywhere! They can be as simple and low-cost or fancy and expensive as you want them to be. There are so many HCG foods to choose from, you won't get bored, confused, or break the bank. Many of the newer low or no-carb foods have been prepared for the popular Keto Diet. Since they are low or no carb, they often fit perfectly into the HCG diet.  Many questions are reviewed in our FAQ Section on the HCG Diet.

Similar to the original 500 Calorie HCG Diet from Dr. Simeons in 1954, we eliminate most of the major carbs, including bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, red and black beans, and all foods and drinks with sugar. The major differences in the new plan are the allowance of 3 fruits per day, larger lunches, and low-calorie, sugar-free snacks.

HCG  Diet Plan Phase 2: Why Add New Foods Choices

HCG diet phase 2 is the center of the 800 calorie HCG Diet. The National Institutes of Health reviews variety and balance in a weight loss plan. They write "Consuming a wider variety of nutrient-dense foods may promote adherence to healthful dietary patterns, leading to improved dietary quality and enhanced metabolic health." HCG  diet plan phase 2 is based on a variety in food groups, tastes, and choices to relieve the boredom and feelings of deprivation that were present in the original Simeons 500 calorie HCG diet and are present in many other very low carb diets today. HCG foods for 2001 is presented in multple food menus below, the smaller meal is at lunch and the larger meal at dinner. This is to avoid 2 large meals a day. In addition, the ultra low carb veggie carb-based pasta and rice usually need to be prepared at home.

How New Foods are Added to the 800 Calorie HCG Diet Phase 2

New foods for the HCG diet in 2022 include not only hundreds of snacks but also substantial carb substitutes. Starting with the parameters of Dr. Simeons' plan regarding carbs and sugars, we added many new products that were not available in his era. I have added low-carb products such as Wasa Crackers, wraps, and pitas that follow the carbs and calories of the Melba Toasts from the 1950's. I have also added protein shakes and bars containing 0-2 grams of sugar and less than 5 grams of carbs. Recently we have added many low calorie/low carb-low fat snacks. Even low carb bagels and breads are acceptable. The key is to avoiding high carb foods with high glycemic indices.  The more the variety and the better the food plan adds more choices, the better chance of long term success.

Note that all of the snacks in the groups below contain low fat and low sugar or no sugar. Almost all of the choices provide easy control.

What if I Can't Find HCG Foods in My Area?

We would be surprised if you couldn't find any HCG foods because most are readily available at any grocery store. This is by design to make it easy for you to stick with the diet. The shopping list gives the best brands, however some might not be available in all parts of the country. If some of these exact products are not available in your area or you have limited selections, don't worry. You still have many choices!

Amazon.com carries a wide variety of HCG foods, especially the bars, beverages, condiments, and prepared varieties, at very reasonable prices. Check out my Amazon store, where I have found and listed all of the HCG foods for you. If you are an Amazon Prime member or you have signed up for Prime Pantry, you can get your food delivered right to your door in as little as 2 days.

At the supermarket, when you are looking for HCG foods that are not on the list, look at the calories first. The total fat and sugar should each be less than 2-3 grams. When either fat or sugar is slightly greater than 2 grams follow the 2 +2 rule: the sugar and fat added together should be less than 4 grams. If the sugar meets this test, the next test is "net carbs". Net carbs are the carbs actually absorbed by the body and should be 10 grams or less per portion:

NET CARBS = Total Carbohydrate – Dietary Fiber – Sugar Alcohols – Artificial sweeteners (1 gram or less)

Also, many new HCG foods have come on the market in the last few years – with more arriving every week. These include vegetable-based substitutes for rice, pasta, and potatoes, no carb chips, no sugar cookies, and zero sugar ice cream. You may have to go to Whole Foods for a few of them, but you can find most of them at your local grocery store or on Amazon.

The "NO" Foods in the HCG Plan

Meat and Fish: No salmon, pork, lamb, salami (mixed meats)

Carbs: No bread, starches, sugar, rice, pasta, potatoes

Fruits: No banana, pineapple, grapes, watermelon, mangos, or avocado

Vegetables: No carrots, corn, peas or red or black beans

Oils: Limited olive & cooking oils other than 0 calorie spray oil okay, low fat-low sugar salad dressings

Drinks: No juices, regular sodas, glasses of milk (even low fat because of the high sugar)

Other: No NUTS, seeds, oils, or cheese (except no-fat cheese) No peanut butter or almond butter
