It works. But it is not recommended.

It is unscientific to lose weight with plastic wrap, and it is impossible to lose weight fundamentally. Wrap the body with plastic wrap, because the local temperature rises, it is easy to remove the water from fat cells and other tissue cells, but this does not consume fat. After drinking water and eating, your body will recover. Wrapping the body with plastic wrap for a long time will make the skin unable to dissipate heat, make sweat accumulate locally, and easily cause skin diseases such as eczema and folliculitis. In addition, plastic wrap itself is a chemical substance, which is easy to cause skin allergies and harm to the body.

Experts pointed out that this "folk prescription" is not scientific, not only can not fundamentally achieve the effect of losing weight, but also may cause a variety of skin diseases.

Plastic wrap can keep food delicious, but some slim women have developed its new "function". Wrap yourself in plastic wrap before exercise to lose weight. However, experts pointed out that this "folk prescription" is not scientific, not only can not fundamentally achieve the effect of losing weight, but also may cause a variety of skin diseases.

Recently, in some fitness centers, many women are wrapped in plastic wrap before fitness. An "experienced person" who often goes to the gym said that you can wrap several layers on the part where you want to lose weight most until it is airtight, and then you can exercise hard in the gym or on the treadmill. Fitness people always wrap the waist, abdomen, thighs and other parts that are easy to accumulate fat with plastic wrap before fitness. The short ones will be wrapped in an hour or two of continuous exercise, and the long ones will cover three or four hours. When asked about the feeling of being wrapped, most people said, "It's really boring, hot and uncomfortable to wrap with plastic wrap, but after exercise, it's obviously more sweaty than where it's not wrapped." Therefore, I am convinced of the folk prescription.

In addition, some cheap plastic wrap has not fallen behind the trend. In addition to labeling the usage as "food packaging", the words "can be used for exercise to lose weight" are simply printed, and this "guiding role" cannot be underestimated.
