Chinese medicine navel hot compress, weight loss and health

The difference between Chinese medicine and Western medicine is that one is slow and has fewer side effects, while the other is quick but has greater side effects. Although Western medicine is now more accepted and more scientifically tenable, it is undeniable that Chinese medicine also has magical effects. So is it feasible to lose weight with Chinese medicine?

Chinese medicine navel hot compress, weight loss and health

There are many ways to lose weight, but none of them are very healthy. If you lose your health because of losing weight, the loss will outweigh the gain. Navel application is one of the more common external treatments in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It can not only cure diseases, but also lose weight, and it is a healthy weight loss method. Warm reminder: this weight loss method is very slow, but slow does not mean bad, and fast does not necessarily mean good. When it comes to losing weight, you can't rush. Losing weight too quickly will have many side effects.

For example:

1. It will disrupt people’s metabolism.

2. The faster you lose weight, the more likely you are to rebound (rebound will cause obese people to lose weight repeatedly, and repeated weight loss can easily shorten their lifespan)
