Ruthless Health And Fitness Strategies Exploited
The loss of total body mass is what is known as weight loss. You body mass is constituted by your skin, your bones and your blood. I suppose I did not mention the fatty tissue beneath your skin. Well, that is because I want to contemplate it part of your flesh. Losing weight could imply losing any of these things.
If you have tried everything else and you are yet unable to shed your excess weight, perhaps you should try acupuncture. I haven’t used it neither do I know for sure if it works, but many say it works. This is the practice of the use of fine needles to cure ailments that originated ages back in China.
Today, many more people exercise it around the world because they say it works. Some tips used in weight loss are crash dieting, drug supplements, surgery and exercise. By far the most effective is the surgical treatment, because it is most times irreversible. But following closely behind it, and with a lot more integrity, is exercise, which demands and instills discipline in your soul that will guide you via life.
You can shed your excess weight in a lot of methods. The gym, the health spa, acupuncture, or even hypnotherapy. As far as you are worried, you get to look and feel wholesome. But question is - are you willing to get up and move towards losing weight? Only you can really solution that question.
This is more effective for centrally obese people. So, does it work? According to a recent study, there was a noticeable difference in the weight and BMI of randomly selected overweight people, especially around the waist area, for the centrally obese ones. Based on this study, it does work but do not be elated yet. This method of weight loss is not set in stone yet. All these are just claims. There are a number of benefits which have been postulated by studies and researchers.
According to Sabina Kim of the Kyung Hee University in Seoul, ear acupuncture causes an increase in metabolism which in turn leads to a decrease in body fat, resulting in loss of weight. A review by a customer told of how her friend used auricular acupuncture to lose 50 pounds. She could not believe the results and, had she not seen it for herself, she would not have believed it.
Does this mean you should rely on this? Again, it depends on the body system of the user. People like such results but fail to understand that everything cannot work out the same way. Truth: With the good comes the bad. Almost every product has a side effect, no matter how negligible. Because acupuncture is a form of pseudoscience or alternative medicine, not everyone is comfortable trying it. This could impede the course of the studies or lengthen the time it would take for acupuncture weight loss to become an established treatment.
The number one side effect of this could be pain or swelling, seeing as it involves needles. In auricular acupuncture, the five-point technique required that the patients carry the inserted needles for one week at a stretch. None of them complained of pain or swelling in the study, at least, none that was published.
But it is a possibility. This may occur after a session of acupuncture treatment but it is not something to be too worried about. It dissipates after about an hour or two and is also dependent on a person’s buildup. Even though acupuncture is used to treat anxiety, there is a possibility that it could also increase already-existing anxiety through an increase in the function of the sympathetic nervous system. This may occur from acupuncture as a result of an inexperienced practitioner administering the treatment.
This is probably the most common side effect of acupuncture due to the nature of it. It can occur as a result of poor hygiene within the clinic, improper sterilization of equipment or the reuse of needles. Some people faint during acupuncture as a result of poor head/body positions or simply a phobia for needles. Direct stimulation with needles of already-sore muscles could lead to pain after a treatment.
This may not disappear immediately; the pain may stay on for a while. This is according to a study they published in the BMJ Journal, Acupuncture in Medicine. The researchers employed three techniques: the five-point, the one-point and the control sham treatment in order to determine which of them worked the best.
No studies thus far have supported weight loss. Sham acupuncture is fake acupuncture. It is where true acupuncture needles are blunted but placed in the same areas where five-point or one-point treatment needles are placed. This was developed in order to eliminate the placebo effect, where patients begin to experience positive results from a treatment just because they feel they are expected to feel better when actually it is all in their head.
It is an imitation treatment used to control fake recoveries so that genuine results can be discovered. It also helps to show how important the brain is to healing and recovery as well as give a clear picture of the changes which occur during the treatment of a patient. In different studies where sham acupuncture was used, the patients on whom it was used usually did not experience any change, as should be.
Six months prior to the time the treatment began, none of the patients had any weight control treatments. Randomly, the patients were divided into three groups: one group to receive the five-point needle treatment, the second group to receive the one-point treatment and the third to receive the control “sham” treatment. Body fat mass, body fat percentage, blood pressure, BMI and waist circumference were measured at the beginning, middle and end of the trial.
