Debunking Popular Weight Loss Methods: Colon Cleansing, Osmotic, Sauna, and Milk Powder

January 5, 2024

Colon Cleansing Weight Loss Method

While it is possible to remove accumulated waste from the intestines and achieve a flat stomach, improper or frequent use of colon cleansing can potentially harm one's health. Frequent colon cleansing for the purpose of weight loss can disrupt the normal rhythm of the intestines and lead to chronic digestive disorders. Therefore, it is important to consult with a doctor before proceeding with caution.

Osmotic Weight Loss Method

By massaging the body with salt, vinegar, alkaline soap, and other substances, the water accumulated under the skin is expelled through the principle of osmosis, resulting in a temporary tightening of the skin. However, this method only eliminates water from the body, not the underlying fat that is the root cause of obesity, thus it is a misguided approach.

Sauna Weight Loss Method

After a sauna, a large amount of sweat is excreted from the body, resulting in temporary weight loss. However, similar to the osmotic weight loss method, this is only a loss of water from the body. Moreover, prolonged sauna sessions can damage the skin by causing excessive sweating and subsequent contraction, leading to faster sagging and aging.

Milk Powder Weight Loss Method

There is a belief that milk powder contains sufficient nutrients, especially infant formula with low fat content, which can both provide the body's needs and reduce food intake, thus achieving weight loss. In reality, the nutrients and calories in milk powder are not sufficient and cannot replace a proper meal. Moreover, long-term consumption of milk powder can cause abdominal pain and, in severe cases, can harm gastrointestinal function.
