How It Works
The MediPro Slim Direct Weight Loss Program
A Brief Review of Its Development
The HCG MediPro Slim Direct™ Weight Loss Program is a medical treatment. A healthy BMI (Body Mass Index) falls between 18 and 25. In the range of 25 to 30, the person is considered overweight. If the BMI is over 30, the person is considered obese and over 40 are considered morbidly obese. The vast majority of our clientele range between 20 and 40 lbs overweight with a BMI between 28 and 34.
The program is designed around the work done by Dr. A.T.W. Simeon from Rome, Italy. Dr. Simeon was an OB-GYN specialist who discovered a unique formula that enabled extremely obese patients to lose weight. This protocol has been in use for decades in Europe.
Over the last few years there has been a tremendous interest in Dr. Simeon’s Protocol due to the work of an enterprising author who wrote a book about Dr. Simeon, bringing his program to the limelight of possible weight loss options. There is almost a frenzy about this “old” but suddenly “new” approach. Protocols for using HCG are appearing left and right.
HCG MediPro Slim Direct™ integrates the basics of Dr. Simeon’s work (published 40 years ago) and has added the bells and whistles of current medical and technical knowledge to create a system that is designed to rapidly burn fat while maintaining lean muscle mass.
It is an aggressive weight loss regimen that must be directed by a physician as it involved a natural hormone, HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) which is injected in very tiny amounts. Combined with the proper dietary restrictions, the effect can be sensational with 3/4 to 1 lb per day weight loss commonly seen.
HCG is a hormone produced in very large quantities during pregnancy. It communicates with a part of the brain called the hypothalamus which is considered the Health Maintenance Organization of the body, regulating or influencing almost all of the health promoting systems in the body. Dr. Simeon’s discovered that the use of very small amounts of HCG combined with a very specific diet led to fat loss without feeling hungry. So, is the use of HCG safe in these small quantities? From every indication, it is not only safe but it actually may be helpful for things other than losing weight.
A review of the medical literature reveals that HCG causes a decrease in the risk of breast and prostate cancer. Current literature is also showing that HCG directly affects Leptin, a hormone only recently discovered (in 1994) that is excreted by fat cells and travels to the hypothalamus to give the message “I’ve stored up enough fat, I don’t need to be hungry”. It seems the HCG helps unlock the pathway for Leptin in the hypothalamus. HCG is not HGH (Human Growth Hormone). They are completely different molecules with different actions in the body.
The HCG MediPro Slim Direct™ Weight Loss Program may well be the safest present day version of Dr. Simeon’s work. In the program, the client is monitored carefully to determine that the weight loss is coming from fat, not lean muscle mass. We use specific additional components to help assure appropriate and rapid weight loss. Our team of doctors, nurses and nutritionists are committed to the safest and best possible outcome for our clients. To date we have treated almost 3,000 clients.
Each person is an individual and, of course, anything is possible. To date our safety record and results have been delightful. Do we accept everyone into the program? No. The doctor determines eligibility on a one-on-one basis. Can we help most people? Yes. Will it be easy? It is easier than most people can imagine.
We encourage our clients to become familiar with Dr. Simeon’s work and the use of HCG to help in the quest of losing weight safely and quickly. There are absolutely no stimulant drugs or anything that might increase the pulse or blood pressure in our program. The HCG is the magic that works with your body. Under the correct circumstances, the ability to loss fat without feeling terribly hungry is the most common result we see. We don’t guarantee that you’ll lose weight but we will provide you with an excellent opportunity to enjoy the benefits of a trimmer and leaner body with a good, healthy BMI.
Although we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the Dr. Simeon’s original protocols, keep in mind that due to changes in medical research and today’s modern lifestyle, our version of the HCG program is more advanced. Therefore, it is essential that you only utilize the information provided in your HCG MediPro Slim workbook.

Disclaimer HCG is a drug which has not been approved by the food and drug administration as safe and effective in the treatment of obesity or weight control. There is no substantial evidence that HCG increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction, that it causes a more attractive or “normal” distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restrictive diets.
