Customer: I got sick after using it.
Cao Li, a native of Shandong Province, used a space capsule to lose weight in February and March this year. A few months later, she still clearly remembers a series of reactions after using it. Cao Li told the reporter of Life Times that the space capsule is actually a sealed container. People lie flat in it and get flustered after a while. "The first day I used it, I didn't feel uncomfortable. The next day, I felt a little sick. On the third day, I began to have diarrhea. Even after drinking a mouthful of boiled water, he immediately ran to the bathroom, accompanied by abdominal distension and stomach pain. It didn't get better until a month later. Even now, my stomach hurts occasionally. "
Another Chen Ling, who has been in the capsule, also said in an interview with the reporter of Life Times that after losing weight with the capsule, she has been dry mouth, cracked mouth, constipation and dizziness for several months. As for the weight, you can't lose 15-20 kg as advocated by beauty salons. "I only lost 3 pounds and rebounded in a few days." Several friends around her who used capsules to lose weight didn't change their weight at all, and they were much ill.
Manufacturer: It has repeatedly claimed that it is absolutely safe.
In the name of a franchisee, the reporter found a technology development company in Beijing that produces space capsules. Miss Zhao of the company told the reporter that customers will be fumigated for 30 minutes after entering the space capsule; After leaving the instrument, apply slimming and firming cream on the obese part of the customer, massage or vibrate the fat for 40 minutes; Finally, let customers take fat-dissolving, detoxicating and fixing agents.
Miss Zhao has repeatedly assured that the product is effective and has no side effects.
Miss Ding, a beauty salon beautician who introduced the space capsule, told reporters privately that these so-called "space capsules" were just a cover, just to make more money for customers. "If you only give them two pills, how can you make them pay so much money? If you add high-tech things like' Taiwan Province imported from Guangzhou', they will believe it. "
Expert: Weight loss by instrument is not reliable.
One side says it is absolutely effective and safe, and the other side says it is a "cover". Is it effective to lose weight with a space capsule? Will it bring side effects?
Sun Baoshan, deputy director of the Department of Plastic Surgery of the Ninth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, believes that the method of losing weight by far infrared rays is simply nonsense, and it is just hype with some high-tech concepts. Fumigation can only make people lose weight by expelling water, and the fat they really want to lose will not be reduced at all. People need a certain amount of water. If too much water is discharged, of course, there will be a series of symptoms such as dizziness and dry mouth.
Professor Sun told the reporter of Life Times that it is completely ineffective to lose weight by external force, and now many businesses will ask you to strictly control your diet while promoting weight loss products, so even if you really lose weight, it is still a diet, which has nothing to do with the so-called high-tech equipment. At the same time, the use of these instruments will also bring some harm to the body.
So, what is the safest way to lose weight?
Professor Sun said that so far, the really safe and effective way to lose weight is to reduce calorie intake, increase exercise and maintain a certain amount of calorie consumption through a reasonable diet. Health is important, but health is more precious. (Reporter Wang Xiao)
