Misconceptions about weight loss (Part 3) Is chili cream a magic tool for weight loss?

[Key Points]: Why do some people fail to lose weight after many attempts? In fact, losing weight is not as difficult as many people say. It may be that you are using the wrong method. If you find losing weight particularly difficult, check to see if you have fallen into the following weight loss misunderstandings.

Are plastic wrap and chili cream magic tools for weight loss?

wrong! It may temporarily speed up local metabolism, but has little effect on the whole body.

Every time after exercising, when I see the wet sweat on the plastic wrap wrapped around my body, I feel that it is the result of fat burning. Of course this method is feasible, especially wrapping your arms and legs with plastic wrap will have a better slimming effect, but it is not suitable in summer.

You do sweat more during exercise than usual, but excessive sweating can cause exhaustion, and your weight won't change significantly. Instead, your skin may develop small rashes in the humid and hot plastic wrap, which can damage your skin.

The "chili cream weight loss method" is recommended in many weight loss guides. By applying chili cream, it promotes blood circulation, helps burn fat, and loses weight. But weight loss experts have found the source of the "spicy" taste - chili cream contains capsaicin, and the parts stimulated by capsaicin will turn red and hot. This reaction is very similar to the fever that occurs in the body after exercise.

This may lead people to mistakenly believe that it can have the same weight loss effect as exercise. Little do people know that the real reason for losing weight through exercise is that it consumes a lot of energy, and fever is just a accompanying phenomenon. Dilating blood vessels and accelerating blood flow may speed up local metabolism to a certain extent, but no research has shown that applying capsaicin on the skin will have a significant weight loss effect.

Can wisdom tooth extraction help you lose weight?

wrong! My face is prone to swelling after wisdom teeth extraction, but it looks smaller after it returns to normal.

To lose weight, you not only have to slim down your belly, you also have to shrink everything from head to toe. Therefore, girls with round faces started to think about their faces. Although female celebrities promote the model of "wisdom teeth to slim the face", the reality is that the width and shape of the face have nothing to do with wisdom teeth, and the idea of ​​removing wisdom teeth to slim the face may just be an illusion.

This approach may seem to make sense when you first hear about it, but your face will generally swell within three to five days after having your wisdom teeth removed. However, once the swelling subsides and the face returns to its original shape, this change may give the illusion of a "thinner face."
