1, ginger bath to lose weight
How comfortable it is to take a warm hot bath in the cold winter! What, you can lose weight by taking a bath? Yes, you are right. Taking a bath with ginger is a good way to lose weight in winter.
Ginger can promote the body's metabolism, especially for the annoying problem of lower body obesity. Taking a bath with ginger, on the day when the cold current strikes, it can be said that cold slimming kills two birds with one stone!
Gingerol can burn fat quickly.
Why can you lose weight by bathing with ginger? Chen Yaokuan, an associate professor at the Institute of Pharmacy of China Medical University, said that ginger contains an important element-"gingerol" or "gingerol", which can promote peripheral blood circulation and improve metabolism, which is why drinking ginger tea will make you feel hot all over. Taking a bath with ginger will make your body feel hot quickly and sweat more easily than taking a bath. Simply put, it is to burn fat by sweating, which has the most obvious effect on people with puffiness and edema.
2, pepper bath is not good
Pepper is also considered to have slimming effect. So, does bathing with pepper have the same effect?
It is said that "capsaicin" does have a similar effect, but the problem is that pepper is too irritating to take a bath, and as long as the amount of ginger is appropriate, you don't have to worry about the feeling of "spicy" when taking a bath.
However, will it soak in the chest and shrink the upper circumference? Chen Yaokuan explained that bathing with ginger does have the function of decomposing fat. Although there is no specific evidence that this will make the chest smaller, in order to avoid "side effects", it is recommended that you take a half-length bath.
