Hcg Platinum

HCG Platinum was a consumer healthcare company primarily known for marketing and selling weight-loss supplements under the HCG Platinum brand. The company's products were marketed as homeopathic versions of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced during pregnancy, claiming they could cause rapid weight loss when combined with a very low-calorie diet. In 2014, the company and its principals faced significant legal action from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for making deceptive and unsupported weight-loss claims. The FTC settlement required the company to stop making such claims and pay millions in consumer redress, effectively ending its primary business operations.
