Yeah. Along with other stuff. I think the company is called It Works!
Sounds like a bunch of phooey to me.
She's all psyched on it & just keeps blathering about it. Supposedly removes toxins, etc.
It's driving me nuts.
You'd have to know the ingredients in the wrap to be safe.
Body wraps appear to work because the compression of the wrap itself, the pressure upon the skin and the underlying layers including fat cells, sculpts where the wrap is wrapped. If that makes sense. Meanwhile, the compression and the wrap ingredients make that area of the body sweat. Thereby causing the client to lose water, which has accumulated in the cells already if a person is overweight, unhealthy, consumes alcohol , high sugar diet, etc...
After the wrap is removed the therapist or technician as they're sometimes called, may measure the persons area where the wrap was applied with a caliper. It's a body fat measurement device that gently pinches the skin to gage the amount of fat(cells) in the area.
If you had one of those at home and you left the clinic where you had been wrapped, went for lunch and had an iced tea for instance, went home and measured yourself you'd see you'd gained a bit more fat via that caliper measurement. But it isn't fat, it's water.
Will her venture make her money? Depends on the market she's in. Today, as with mostly all 'days', there's big money to be made in get _____________ quick schemes. Fill in the blank with whatever the market will bear. Get thin fast. Get healthy fast. Get looking younger fast.
It takes years to gain body fat, weight. It takes time to lose it.
Burn more calories than you consume, exercise, whatever burns calories and that you enjoy doing, and you'll lose weight.
Go slow. Don't strip those things you love to eat out of your diet all at once. Go slow. Moderation. You can eat what you like just in smaller servings. And again, burn more calories than you consume.
Some weight issues have to do with diet and food allergies or that adverse reaction a body has to food ingredients that cause allergic response.
A key thing to look for when you're eating and to find what you may be allergic to is to notice if you sneeze when you're eating.
Or just after you eat.
This goes for consuming alcohol as well. If you sneeze when you start to consume alcohol chances are you're allergic.
There was a big fad promoted years ago that focused on high protein no or very little carbs. The founder died lets just say not a healthy man. The body needs carbs in order to feed the brain and the body.
The key thing to remember in ventures like this is, if it promises a fast fix for what took years to break don't risk it.
