Green beans are typically excluded from the HCG diet because they are considered a starchy vegetable, which can interfere with the diet's goal of rapid weight loss. The HCG diet emphasizes very low-calorie intake while promoting the consumption of non-starchy vegetables to minimize carbohydrate intake and maintain stable blood sugar levels. Additionally, the diet focuses on specific foods that are believed to support the effects of HCG and enhance fat loss, leading to a more controlled and effective weight loss process.
