Why do I get so tired while on the HCG diet?

A lack of energy, fatigue or feeling physically weak is a common side effect of the HCG diet. The fatigue is a result of the extreme caloric restrictions that your HCG diet requires. You may also want to try a supplement to help you keep those energy levels up! Many people while on the HCG diet try taking Vitamin B-12 complex to boost energy and to use it as a natural necessity for a healthy metabolism.

Another thing that your HCG diet may be lacking is potassium. It is important that you are getting enough potassium in your diet. Eating Foods high in potassium will change your physical and mental energy in just hours. Low potassium leads to general weakness and malaise. Eat high potassium foods, every day and if you can't get the potassium out of foods you can also get it in a supplemental form as well. So there are a couple of options that can help boost your energy while taking HCG. Good luck everyone!
