Is the hcg diet safe for someone who is too thin?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Hcg diet: The fda does not feel that HCG is safe for anyone. The 'hcg diet' starts with 500 calories a day, which is also unsafe. Save yourself some money and continue to eat healthy.

Why would you: Do this diet if you are thin. It is not a matter of safety with the HCG diet. It only works on people who have at least 15 pounds of abnormal fat to lose. If you are thin and no abnormal fat you will have no benefit with this diet.
