* Why Was Broccoli Added To The New Protocol?

Many dieters that have read the original hCG diet protocol, written over 50 years ago may be questioning why broccoli was added to the new protocol. I decided to ask one of the physicians that modified the old protocol and here is what he said:

Dr. Larry Vickman comments, “Broccoli is our new addition to our modified hCG diet protocol. It is loaded with fiber and antioxidants along with many other nutritional factors. As it has a very low glycemic index and is composed mostly of cellulose and water. It does not raise your blood sugar appreciably and in this way it is much like celery. The caloric addition from broccoli is truly minimal and when you consider the multitude of health benefits it offers, it makes sense to include it in things you can eat with regularity. There are those who believe that it takes more energy to digest broccoli and celery than you would obtain from eating it. However, the caloric addition to your meals each day from eating either of them is at best minimal.”
