The reason why acupuncture can achieve the goal of weight loss lies in the scientific nature of its principle. The principle of acupuncture for weight loss is to adjust the body's metabolism and endocrine function.
So, how does acupuncture actually help to reduce excess fat?
Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture is a profound science. In recent years, due to the effectiveness of acupuncture in weight loss, many businesses have promoted "acupuncture for weight loss," including numerous beauty salons.
Firstly, acupuncture can effectively regulate the metabolism of lipids. The lipid peroxide content in the body of obese patients is higher than normal. Acupuncture can lower the level of lipid peroxides and accelerate fat metabolism, thus achieving the goal of weight loss.
Secondly, acupuncture can correct abnormal appetite in patients. By regulating the nervous system, it can inhibit excessive secretion of gastric acid, reducing the desire to eat and minimizing stimulation to the gastric mucosa. After acupuncture, the emptying of the stomach slows down, leading to a feeling of fullness and reduced cravings for food.
Thirdly, acupuncture can effectively regulate endocrine disorders. Obesity and endocrine disorders are closely related. The likelihood of them occurring together is high. For example, why do women become less slim after giving birth? It's not due to excessive nutrition but rather the disruption of their endocrine balance caused by childbirth, leading to weight gain. Similarly, why do women gain weight rapidly during menopause? Again, it's due to endocrine disorders. In such cases, acupuncture can correct endocrine disorders by regulating the "hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal cortex" and "sympathetic-adrenal cortex" systems, and accelerate fat metabolism, thus achieving the goal of weight loss.
