At present, many people begin to believe in the methods of Chinese medicine to lose weight, such as acupuncture weight loss. However, acupuncture is only a way of treating diseases in Chinese medicine, so it can't be 100% guaranteed that weight loss is effective on the whole. If there is no disease on the whole, acupuncture may be harmful. So, is acupuncture weight loss really effective?

1, the misunderstanding of traditional Chinese medicine to lose weight

Myth 1: Chinese medicine dieters abound. The treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine should be used under the guidance of syndrome differentiation and treatment, which requires doctors to have multiple qualifications and master the diagnosis and treatment methods of obesity, that is, they must be medical practitioners with two certificates: professional doctor qualification certificate and professional doctor registration certificate. Acupuncture and other traditional Chinese medicine beauty should be in medical institutions. If it is treated outside the hospital, it must be approved by the health administrative department and put on record. At the very least, it requires a medical institution qualification license. However, according to the reporter's investigation, there are very few China dieters who can produce two certificates in nearly ten beauty salons and slimming halls around Beijing International Trade Center, and more people have only received beauty and body training.

Myth 2: You can lose weight if you tie it. "For the sake of physical beauty, many people who are not overweight will also turn to Chinese medicine or acupuncture." Professor Fu Jieying emphasized that acupuncture is used to treat diseases, and the loss of health without getting sick is not worth the loss. Ms. Li and Ms. Qiu, who are doing traditional Chinese medicine to lose weight in a beauty salon in modern city, told reporters that after they had acupuncture and acupuncture to lose weight, the dieters asked them not to eat meat, and it was best to eat only eggs and cucumbers. After the treatment, although the appetite is a little small, I feel that I can lose weight only by eating eggs and cucumbers a day, and I don't lose weight. "In fact, obesity is a disease greatly influenced by lifestyle." Fu Jieying said that excess fat is like garbage produced by the body. You have to change your habit of throwing garbage first. It will be more effective if someone else helps you clean it up. If you don't throw garbage and reduce the amount, you will naturally lose weight. Like acupuncture weight loss, although the side effects are small, it is still difficult to achieve the goal of losing weight simply by relying on it.

Misunderstanding 3, where to tie where fine. Heredity is also a factor leading to obesity. "Many people are not overweight, just feel that their shoulders are too fat and their calves are too fat, so they ask acupuncture weight loss." Professor Fu Jieying said that acupuncture is not "what is reduced and what is tied". In fact, the distribution of subcutaneous fat is often related to genetic factors or long-term posture. It is difficult to solve these problems by acupuncture alone. Acupuncture is more suitable for central obesity with more visceral fat.

Misunderstanding 4, quick-acting weight loss method. Many weight-loss institutions are promoting "fast weight-loss agreement" while using "Chinese medicine to lose weight", assuring consumers that "30 days is thin 10 kg" and so on. What is actually used is excessive dieting and excessive exercise. Fu Jieying pointed out that "fast weight loss" is the biggest misunderstanding of weight loss, often at the expense of health. After weight loss, weight tends to rebound, which may eventually lead to infertility, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic gastritis and chronic colitis. "The right amount of fat is the basic substance to sustain life. We don't need to hate it. To maintain an ideal figure, a healthy lifestyle is the key. "

2. How to eat breakfast to lose weight?

A good breakfast should include three things: cereal (such as coarse bread without wheat, eight-treasure porridge, black rice bread, wowotou, fennel cabbage bag and so on). ), fruits and dairy products. It is best to drink milk with less fat. Whoever eats this breakfast will kill three birds with one arrow; Rich in carbohydrates, low in fat, rich in vitamins and minerals.

Breakfast for women aged 25-40 should meet at least 50% of daily vitamin and folic acid requirements, especially vitamin C and iron. Nowadays, most women don't get enough iron and folic acid from food. If possible, it can be supplemented from lunch and dinner. Meat, offal, millet and fennel can meet people's needs of iron 10 ~ 18 mg a day. Vitamin B can be taken from lean meat, fish, liver, whole wheat bread, potatoes, peanuts and other foods.
