Is plastic wrap useful for losing weight?
Plastic wrap is useless for losing weight.

When you wrap your body with plastic wrap for exercise, it will only increase the local temperature. In order to regulate your body temperature, you will sweat a lot, which will easily lead to dehydration during exercise. However, the amount of perspiration is not directly related to the amount of fat burned. After sweating, it may look a little thinner at that time, but it is essentially dehydrated and does not consume fat.

In addition, plastic wrap not only can't lose weight, but long-term wrapping is also harmful to the body. Wrapping plastic wrap will make the human body unable to regulate its body temperature normally, and excessive body temperature will do harm to the body. Water is an important medium for lipid metabolism in the body. When the body loses too much water, it will slow down fat metabolism, which is not conducive to fat consumption. In addition, long-term use of plastic wrap will cause the sweat on the skin surface to be unable to evaporate, and the metabolic waste in the sweat will remain on the skin surface, which will have adverse effects on the skin, and may also block sweat glands and cause skin diseases such as eczema.

The correct way to lose weight is to lose weight healthily, such as at least 30-40 minutes of aerobic exercise every time. The energy is mainly supplied by glycogen 30 minutes before exercise. At this time, glycogen is the most consumed by the body, and fat will participate in energy supply after 30 minutes. Therefore, the longer you exercise, the more fat you burn, and the better you lose weight.

Besides exercise, you should also adjust your diet. High-calorie foods, such as French fries and potato chips, are best not to eat during weight loss. To sum up: shut up and take your legs.
