After it has witnessed a spread that has spanned more than a decade since 2010, here are the waistrs that return strongly, but this time it is marketed as it reduces the waist circumference, helps to lose weight, and gives “a phase similar to the sandy clock”, to the extent that there are those who wear two of them at the same time “for more slimming.”
Because modern waist corsets today are designed to change the shape of the body in the long run, it has become an integral part of the daily wellness and fitness programs, in the hope that its magical goals will achieve.
Where many influencers recommend wearing it throughout the night, as part of a strict cosmetic routine. In one of the advertisements on the Internet, a model claimed that she “lost 5 inches after wearing a training corset for 6 to 8 hours a day.”
The waistrs began to spread significantly in the content of the gyms on the Internet as well, as many facilities claim this content – especially on the “Tech Talk” website – that wearing a narrow belt during exercise “enhances the secretion of a lot of sweat around the abdomen, which supports weight loss in that region. Others who call themselves recommend experts to wear it throughout the day “even during rest,” according to the British Independent.
The information remains conflicting, then, about the waist, but the important thing is what you do with our bodies, and what to know before using them.
Do wavelers help lose weight?
The waist corsets are a type of belt -like designs, and they are worn under clothes to attend suitable or throughout the day, as a way to give the body a more graceful shape, and is usually made of a mixture of nylon or latex.
Dr. Jamila Wakim Fleming, a specialist in the digestive system and liver, says to the “Cleveland Clinic” site, that these guns are marketed as a “fast” way to lose weight with a mixture of 3 effects:
- Swind pressure and narrowing on the abdominal area.
- Sweating.
- Loss of appetite.
But it confirms that this is not possible, and what the waistrs achieve only temporary, because the main method that the waistrs help in the temporary weight loss is to curb appetite; “It is not a sustainable way to lose weight, and is not worth the fatigue associated with these products.”
8 possible side effects of waist hardware
According to the medical director at the Midland Health clinic in Birmingham, Dr. Ruba Parmar, “there is no scientific evidence that supports the claim that the waistrs may lead to losing fat or changing the shape of the body on the long term.” But its real effect may be a set of possible side effects, according to the duration of its wearing; Among the most important:
Shortness“If you restrict your waist and press it, you do not allow enough space to move the diaphragm, which may lead to shortness of breath or even fainting,” says Barmar.
Heart problems, While the waistrs focus on your stomach, the pressure may also affect your lungs and cause difficulty breathing, because you do not get enough oxygen with each breath, which leads to poor blood circulation, and may cause heart problems, “according to Dr. Fleming.
This is precisely the reason, the American Plastic Surgery Council recommended getting rid of waist.
Skin rash and skin problems, Other concerns related to waist junters – according to Dr. Fleming – are made of materials such as latex that do not allow air passage, and may lead to sweating, irritation of the skin and itching, given that it is very narrow, and is annoying for people with the most sensitive skin.
Presse on the digestive systemAccording to Parmar, there is another source of concern, which is “the pressure on the digestive system”, which in turn may lead to “heartburn, bloating, and esophageal reflux resulting from constipation.”
The deterioration of muscle strengthThe lack of operation of the abdominal muscles due to the excessive wearing of the waist corset may lead to the weakening of the trunk muscles that are also under pressure and compression constantly, which actually leads to “the deterioration of muscle strength, especially the trunk muscles.”
Weakening the internal organs, The waistrs are not only affecting the external appearance, but Dr. Wakim Fleming indicates that “the pressure of the constant corset on the internal organs, especially the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and spleen, may be very wrong for the long term.”
A fake grace that does notM, Dr. Parmar says, “If you spend most of the day wearing the corset of the waist, you may eliminate it and think that you look more agile, or that your waist has become a little narrower; but this is usually an illusion.”
As the waist corset may have a short -term effect on changing the appearance of the abdominal area, but this effect will not last long after removing the corset.
Parmar is likely that this illusion is only caused by a slight loss of fluids, perhaps even from sweating and pressure, “and not actually losing fat, or reshaping the body.”
It may cause addiction, This is what 26 -year -old Chloe told the Independent newspaper, looking at 3 waist corsets in her wardrobe, she was wearing her 16 years before leaving the house, in the gym, school, or even while sleeping.
But it is no longer attracted to it as it was before; She says: I was very concerned with my appearance, and this stems from my lack of confidence in myself, and now “I do not recommend it, it is uncomfortable and dangerous, and it may cause addiction.”
When should you immediately stop wearing a waist corset?
Dr. Fleming stresses that “the waist guns should not be a daily piece of clothing”, and it is recommended to use it when necessary, temporarily and lightly; It is advised to immediately stop wearing it when you feel the following four symptoms:
- Acid reflux more than usual.
- Food reflux after eating.
- difficulty breathing.
- Swelling in the legs.
Also, Dr. Parmar recommends that we ask ourselves: “What do we seek to achieve using a waist corset? And to think about other ways to change the shape of the body, such as focusing on strengthening muscles, following a healthy diet, and practicing trunk exercises such as Pilates and yoga.”
