Chinese Weight Loss Methods

Saturday, May 28th, 2011

Chinese weight loss methods are usually talked about like they’re an ancient secret that has passed down from Mother to Daughter for centuries. The truth is that is pretty much the way it does happen! Fortunately you can learn the same simple techniques and methods that allow Asian women to get skinny even right after they give birth…without going hungry or giving up the food you love.

Chinese Weight Loss Methods

The important thing to remember as you look to lose inches and drop pounds using techniques perfected in Asia is that everyone is different. Sometimes you’ll give in to temptation and cheat a bit, and that is OK.

One of the best parts of this program is that it keeps your metabolism at an extremely high level to burn fat at all times. You’ll lose weight even when you’re asleep, so that cheat meal or cheat day isn’t going to throw you off the tracks from reaching your goal weight.

We’re all human and temptation makes us who we are. Don’t fear it, embrace it!

A Simple Tip to Weight Loss

One of the most successful ways to use Chinese weight loss methods to get the figure you’ve always wanted is located in your bathroom.

If you guessed the bathtub, you’re right, that’s exactly where this easy tip is found, and it’s a quick change that can yield good results quickly.

You want to start taking Epsom salt baths, and you want to do it as often as you can each week. Epsom salt is a combination of magnesium and sulfates, but more importantly it acts as an agent that takes fat-storing impurities and other negative elements out of your body through the skin.

Just a 20-minute soak a few times a week is enough to start the process, but if you have time by all means increase the frequency to more sessions. You’ll quickly find that your stress and tension melts away each day, along with inches from your belly and thighs.

And Epsom salt bath on its own isn’t going to get you the body you’ve always wanted, but it’s definitely part of a larger plan that you CAN use to finally fit into your favorite skinny jeans…

The Secret Way to True Weight Loss

Everyone I talk with these days is sick of the latest diet programs, where you’re either STARVING or trying to live through BRUTAL workouts to drop weight.

Instead, let me teach you some secret tricks Asian women have been using for years to quickly drop 20 pounds off your belly and thighs in less than a month without any sweating.

These simple methods are so easy that you can actually do many of them while in the bathtub or relaxing on the couch watching TV!

Adverse Health Effects of Chinese Drywall

Monday, January 4th, 2010

Chinese drywall has not been conclusively linked to health issues. That being said, reports are widespread indicating that those living in affected homes have experienced a wide range of health issues. These issues range from severe headaches, nose bleeds, coughing, and irritated eyes and skin to more concerning symptoms associated with neurological issues. Many reports indicated that these symptoms cease when the homeowners leave the home for a period of time.

At least one doctor has advised homeowners with Chinese drywall to “get out” of their home. The key to evaluating the health risks of Chinese drywall is the concentrations and intensity of the toxic gases and the duration of the exposure. Most structures affected are homes, and people are exposed to their homes on a regular and extended basis. The intensity of the exposure depends on how much gas the drywall produces and the level of air exchange.

The gas that appears to be most hazardous to human health is carbon disulfide. The the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) limits short term exposure to carbon disulfide to 1 ppm. The exposure limits are designed around risks to the cardiovascular, central nervous system, and reproductive. The other gas of concern is hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide exposure should be limited to 10 ppm for just a 10 minute duration. Long term, lower level exposures have not been adequately studies. Also, the the 10 ppm exposure is based on the acceptable levels for adults. Studies of safe exposure levels for children and infants have not been studied.

Hydrogen sulfide is also responsible for the rotten egg smell associated with Chinese drywall. At just 40 part per billion, most people can smell hydrogen sulfide. The more dangerous of the two gases, carbon disulfide, is typically found at about 1/4th the level of hydrogen sulfide. Because exposure limits for carbon disulfide are dramatically lower, the combination of hydrogen sulfide and carbon disulfide has the potential of significant adverse health effects in the long term.
