Medical Video: IS IT A TRUTH OR A LIE ? | USE VICKS VAPORUB FOR WEIGHT LOSS OVERNIGHT !
For people who are trying hard to lose weight, maybe any way is willing to be taken. One of the most tried diet trends, especially by Eve, is wrapping the stomach with plastic wrap. Many say you can burn fat faster with this method.
However, is it really possible to make a belly wrap with plastic? Furthermore, are there dangers and risks to health? Come on, see information about plastic wrap for the following diet.
What is plastic wrap for diet?
Wrapping your stomach using plastic is believed to be a way of detoxifying (removing toxins in the body) and burning fat, especially in the abdomen and waist area. Because, when the stomach is wrapped in plastic, you will sweat more because your body temperature rises to very hot.
In fact, no study has been successful in proving that the method of wrapping oneself with plastic can trigger fat burning or detoxification. This method is actually very risky for health. Therefore, experts do not recommend the way this diet is to lose weight.
Remember, there is no quick and instant way to achieve your ideal body weight. The only key is to maintain a healthy lifestyle, for example by paying attention to nutrition, exercise, and adequate rest.
Does the stomach wrap with plastic effectively reduce weight?
No, the way this diet cannot help you lose weight. You may lose a little weight after wrapping your stomach with plastic. However, your weight will immediately rise again after you drink water.
You can lose weight just because your body loses a lot of fluid through sweat. Not because you have burned a lot of fat. Fat in the body will not burn and quickly disappear if you do not turn it into energy. The only effective way to convert fat reserves to energy is to actively move, for example when you exercise.
What about the detoxification process using plastic wrap?
Wrapping your stomach with plastic will also not speed up the detoxification process. The human body has a special system for removing various types of toxic substances, namely through the kidneys and liver.
Well, the sweat that is produced as long as you wrap your stomach is actually intended to control the temperature of your body so it's not too hot, not to get rid of toxins.
The sweat gland will send sweat to the surface of the skin. Then the sweat on the surface of the skin will evaporate into the air. This evaporation process will make the body feel cooler.
So, your sweat glands are not in charge of removing toxins. The kidneys and liver are responsible for removing toxins in the body, for example through urine and feces. Therefore, it is wrong to think that sweating means that you are "cleansing" your body of various harmful substances.
The danger of losing weight with plastic wrap can result in death
Besides being ineffective, losing weight with plastic is also dangerous for the body. Even in a case in 1997, three professional wrestlers died trying to lose weight by dieting plastic wrap. They wear special clothes that make the body sweat a lot.
With plastic wrap, body temperature will increase high. The sweat glands produce sweat, but the sweat produced cannot evaporate because it is stuck in plastic. As a result, the body temperature will not get colder. The body will even be more sweaty to cool off.
Sweating too much will disrupt the fluid balance in the body. As a result, blood volume can be reduced so that the body does not get enough oxygen. Losing too much fluid can cause dehydration.
When you are dehydrated, your body can become weak, headache, dazed, and your heart beat fast. If not treated immediately, someone who is dehydrated may lose consciousness (faint) and even die. Therefore, do not try this dangerous diet method to lose weight.
