HCG.... Worth the risks?

I've got some pretty set in stone opinions about the HCG diet. And this article totally backs up everything I have thought for myself from what I knew about the diet already. Anyone will lose weight only taking in 500 calories a day. The human body NEEDS more than 500 calories a day to be fully nourished and healthy. And since you can't actually train or exercise much since you WILL run the risk of passing out and over doing it, when you lose the weight you will have no muscle tone. So you'll have skin with no where to go, which will only make you even more unhappy about your image. The HCG doesn't actually do anything. It's no more than a placebo with some fairly negative potential side effects.

So is it really worth the risk?
