hypothalamus gland and weight loss

There is a guy on tv claiming a "cure " for weight loss, claiming that there is a substance that can reset your hypothalamus gland. I think that this is a load of garbage, based on very vague information, and this guy is trying to sell books! Have you any information about what the hypothalamus gland actually does? Thanks!!

I recently started my hcg shots, I didn't buy the book "The Cure",  I simply went to Intergrative Medical in NJ.  In Nov 2007 started with a series of colonics, chelations therapy and then started my shots 2 months later.  So far on my 3rd day of the injections, I'm down 4 pounds.  Hell that shocked me,  the actual 500 cal diets starts today.  I'm a little hungry, trying not to think about it.  Drinking plenty of herbal tea for breakfast, so far so good.  I did experience a headache on the first day of shots.  Ok now.  Anyone else on the Hcg shots, comment back.

Here is what I found about Mark Trudeau on Wikipedia:   Kevin Mark Trudeau (born February 6, 1963) is an American author, pocket billiards promoter (founder of the International Pool Tour), convicted felon, salesman, and alternative medicine advocate.[1] He is known for a number of television infomercials selling his products, and for several books, including Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About. Trudeau has had numerous interactions with the U.S. judicial system, including multiple fines and a larceny conviction.[2] The Federal Trade Commission currently restricts his ability to promote and sell any product or service. However, he is permitted to promote books and other publications due to free-speech protection under the First Amendment as long as they are not used to promote or sell products or services.[3][4]

If you want the book, take a look at ebay for cheap prices.  I would avoid ordering from Kevin's promo's as one will receive many intriguing offers like joining a "secret" society he endorces; etc.although not "selling" it himself.  And if you order from the TV promo, expect to have to listen to numerous other offers before getting to order the book.  While I am interested in exactly what he is
claiming the cure to be...I can't believe it is SIMPLE as he claims on the promos.

Just do a little research on Kevin Trudeau and you will find that he will promot anything if he thinks it will make him some money.  He thinks he is an expert on everythig but really knows nothing.  If you want to lose weight just cut your portions and eat the right foods and exercise.  You must be willing to make a life style change.

I am reading Kevin's book and alot of what he say make sense to a point. I am going to take it my Dr and see what she has to say about it.  But it is interesting some of the things he is saying. I know some of what he tells is mostly common sense, but I am curious to have it checked out myself before I make any judgement.
