Number 8 Diet: hCG

This unhealthy diet trend has spawned tons of home-delivery sites and diet plans, but at its core, the hGC diet works because of its severe caloric restriction. Followers of the diet take drops or injections of the pregnancy hormone hCG in combination with eating a near-starvation ration of 500 calories per day, claiming that the supplement "mobilizes fat" while fighting off feelings of hunger. However, cutting calories so dramatically for a prolonged period of time can lead to severe side effects, including heart palpitations, hair loss and dizziness.
