What You Should Know
The weight loss product Releana is manufactured by the company Millennium Medical Spa LLC 1997. The official website for this company tells us that it is an advanced medical weight loss company. Although this company provides a number of solutions for weight loss, they market heavily their patent pending product Releana. Releana contains the hormone HCG which stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin. The official website tells us that this hormone will break down abnormal fat in the body. However HGC is in fact a hormone which is produced in pregnancy and which is made by the embryo soon after conception. It is also a hormone which is used as a tumor marker as it is found in certain cancers.
Ingredients
Releana contains Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin.
Product Features
The official website for Releana is detailed, with contact information given should you wish to contact a representative of the company with any questions or concerns. There are also a number of testimonials on the official website written by those who have already used the company’s weight loss services and products. There are before and after photos posted on the official website by those who have used Releana. Millennium Medical Spa LLC, in order to back up the claims which it makes for Releana relies on research carried out in the 1950s by a British Physician known as Dr. Simeons. Dr. Simeons injected a number of women with Human Chorionic Gonadophrin and found that they lost weight. However no clinical trials to date have backed up the results of the trials carried out by Dr. Simeons. This makes the claims made for Releana rather questionable.
Advantages
- There is an official website for the company which manufactures Releana.
- There are testimonials and before and after photos posted on the official website for Releana.
- There is contact information given should you wish to contact a representative of the company which manufactures Releana.
Disadvantages
- Clinical Studies carried out do not back up the claims made for HCG which is the main active ingredient in Releana.
- Some people may not be comfortable taking this hormone.
- We cannot be one hundred percent sure that taking this hormone either orally or by injection is one hundred percent safe.
- There is no evidence that if you take Releana it will procure superior results than other weight loss products on the market.
Conclusion
We cannot recommend Releana as we have concerns regarding certain issues. Firstly we could not find any independent clinical trials carried out on HCG which backed up the results found by Dr Simeons in the 1950s. Secondly we cannot be 100% sure that taking HCG is safe; after all it is a hormone which is found in certain cancers.





I lost 45 lbs in 12 weeks on Releana (and have kept it off). I think it works great.

did you feel like you were starving? Did you feel jittery or crash at the end of the day? Does it give you any energy?

I lost 60 lbs. when I tried everything else and have maintained evenover the Holidays!!

That is awesome! Did you follow the 500 cal diet strictly? How long did it take you? Hope I can reach that goal by early may! Btw did you get instructions on how long to hold the dose under your tongue? Curious. Thanks and have a great day!
[Reply]
my instructions were 1-3 mins

I started the diet on January 7th 2010 and have lost 16 lbs to date and it is January 18th. I have had no side effects of jitters or the feeling to eat. I have never dieted before because I was never dedicated but with this actually seeing the results is amazing.

[Reply]
hi Kristin I’d love to be a buddie!! my emai is donmarcola@gmail.com. I did bad today bcause of ‘x’ drama so I had a glass of wine when something upsets me!!! So I need to find a way to change that reaction. with something else! I’ll be better tomorrow. So when do you think you will start? I’m so excited abou this.
I have an appointment on Monday. I am a little concerned about what it says about being found in cancer.
Any comments?
[Reply]
i read that it is a marker for cancer but it doesn’t cause cancer. not sure how accurate that is but that’s what i found when i googled it. i’m starting on monday too!
Kristin, I just found an ad for Releana. I’m considering it but can you tell me what you found, what happened on your first visit. My one concern is the Cancer thing also! Thank you so much and make it a great day! Jacquie
they took my blood the first visit and gave me the releana, appetite surpressant, and potassium pills. they want you to eat only 500 cal a day with the releana. i can’t tell you how it’s working cuz i haven’t been able to keep the 500cal in check
but i’m going to start trying again 2moro. oh yea, there is the thing called loading. you have to load up on fat and calories the first 2 days on the program to get it kick started or something like that. well, good luck. and as for the cancer thing. i didn’t find much, just google it and read what’s out there.
My sister is doing this and has already lost 7 lbs since wednesday. I dont’ think she will mind buddying up

[Reply]
How do I use Releana? All I got was a small powdered vial and the liquid vial
[Reply]
Do most pharmacies carry Releana?
[Reply]
Hi ladies. How much does it cost? Does ins. Take care of any?
[Reply]
should releana be taken if you have had breast cancer which was hormone receptive
[Reply]
i think you should check with your oncologist for this question. it would be the best route to take with something so serious.
[Reply]
I’ve tried every diet there is for 30+ years. My body has learned to NOT lose weight when I diet. I’ve been on Releana since 11/12/09 and have lost over 40 lbs. This has succeeded where nothing else has. My diabetes is resolved, my BP is normal, my blood work is normal, and I feel GREAT! This is a miracle for me.
[Reply]
I am going to start Tuesday, but really need a good push. How do you handle the 500 calorie diet? Obviously with that little calorie intake you will loose weight is it worth the Relena as it is SUPER EXPENSIVE!

I have been taking a sublingual form of HcG for 3 weeks now. After reading your website, I started to question my Doctor about the type of HcG that was being prescribed to me. I was under the original impression that I was taking your Releana product. However, it was not, and I became VERY upset about this. I demanded that she change my prescription to the Releana. And she has complied.
My question is this – how should I proceed? Do I continue the VLCD and drops I am on now with no interuption and take the Releana or should I stop for a few days and “re-load” before I start the Releana? I am very excited about the Releana and do not want to sabatoge the diet before I begin. I have lost total faith in my Dr. to give me the correct information.
