1, brain electromagnetic waves can actually help to lose weight.
Intestinal bacteria balance weight loss
A large number of studies on obesity have concluded that the imbalance of intestinal flora may be the chief culprit of our obesity. Therefore, many books and diet plans give suggestions on how to indirectly control weight by balancing intestinal flora.
This experiment links the relationship between brain and intestinal flora, which may explore a new way to lose weight. No deep brain stimulation, surgery or electrode implantation is required. You only need to wear a non-invasive electromagnetic collar on your head, and you can lose weight by transcranial magnetic stimulation of brain waves. Does that sound incredible?
Livio Luzzi, the author of this study and an endocrinologist at the University of Milan, said, "Although there are many measures to prevent and treat obesity, none of them have really slowed down the worldwide obesity trend. We urgently need a safe and effective way to lose weight. "
A large number of studies have proved that the balance between beneficial bacteria and harmful bacteria in the intestine can ensure the good operation of the digestive system, so the imbalance of intestinal flora may become the chief culprit of obesity. "Then we should start with intestinal bacteria," Qilu said.
In the experiment, three obese men and 1 1 obese women were randomly divided into two groups. In the next five weeks, one group received transcranial magnetic stimulation three times a week, while the other group did not receive any manual intervention.
After the experiment, the subjects who received transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy lost 3% weight and 4% fat on average, which was more effective than the other group. At the same time, the researchers found that the number of beneficial bacteria in the intestine of the group treated with transcranial magnetic stimulation increased significantly, which could effectively resist intestinal inflammation.
Stimulate the body to feel full.
In the blood test, the researchers found that the blood sugar, insulin, pituitary hormones and other components of the experimenters who received transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment improved. Among them, pituitary hormones have been proved to be substances that directly control human appetite, which can stimulate people to feel full, thus reducing food intake and achieving the purpose of losing weight. "The experimental results show that transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy can adjust the balance of intestinal bacteria and increase satiety, thus effectively losing weight," Qilu said.
Qilu said: "These studies prove that we may regulate some behaviors related to weight change and obesity through brain electromagnetic waves. This study also provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of bulimia patients. " At present, deep brain stimulation for other brain regions has been applied to the treatment of Parkinson's disease. In the treatment of depression, addiction and obsessive-compulsive disorder, brain electromagnetic wave stimulation has also entered the clinical testing stage.
"In view of the fact that brain electromagnetic wave stimulation has accumulated a lot of foundations in the treatment of other diseases." Luzi said, "Once applied to human clinical trials, this technology may soon become a means to treat obesity." (Compile Chen Jiali)
2. What are the effects of music weight loss?
The Influence of Music on Diet and Weight Loss
Music has the function of relaxing body and mind and relaxing atmosphere. This is because music makes the brain work and promotes the secretion of serotonin. Serotonin is a pleasant substance in the brain. Once serotonin is insufficient, the autonomic nerves will be out of balance, not only in a bad mood, but also the body will be affected! If you make good use of music to adjust when you lose weight, you can promote the secretion of serotonin, and both food intake and exercise efficiency will be improved.
Promote the secretion of serotonin and eliminate stress.
It's easy to get stressed when you lose weight, especially when you are on an empty stomach. Because of this, many people will eat and drink carelessly, leading to overeating. If they don't want to exercise, losing weight will fail. Serotonin is a substance that can relieve stress and relax body and mind. Listening to music and promoting the secretion of serotonin can effectively eliminate the enemy of weight loss-stress!
Serotonin suppresses appetite.
Serotonin secretion can not only relieve stress, but also stimulate satiety center, transmit satiety information to the brain, and effectively control appetite. If you are under pressure for a long time, the secretion of serotonin will gradually decrease, and your appetite will easily become uncontrollable. At this time, music is the most suitable way to solve this problem!
The influence of music on weight loss exercise
When jogging, walking or cycling outdoors to lose weight, while listening to music with a portable player, you are doing various sports to enrich the atmosphere and strengthen your brain. After your thoughts are scattered, even if you continue to exercise, you will not feel bored, but you will think more and more, and you will find it very interesting!
Listening to some music with obvious rhythm, breathing will continue to exhale and inhale with the rhythm, and the heart rate will remain at a stable level, because if the heart rate is not stable enough, it will bring a burden to the body and the exercise will not continue. What are the benefits of continuous exercise? Continuous exercise can burn more fat and consume more calories!
The best music to lose weight: broadcast gymnastics
Everyone has been learning broadcast gymnastics since childhood. According to the movements, they are doing various simple movements at an average speed with the music. In fact, broadcast gymnastics is also a very good aerobic weight loss exercise!
The movements in broadcast gymnastics are very simple, mainly stretching movements with low intensity. The energy metabolic equivalent is only 4.5METs, which can be easily controlled by everyone. At the same time, with aerobic breathing and self-regulation, the whole body can exercise easily.
Broadcast gymnastics is very simple, but it also takes a short time. If you want to lose weight by broadcasting gymnastics, I'm afraid it's not strong enough, because fat can't be completely burned in such a short time, but if you do some stretching exercises to warm up and exercise your bones and muscles before doing gymnastics, you may be able to strengthen the weight loss effect brought by gymnastics!
