Recently, the fairy's tube that can "physically lose weight" has been on fire all over the Internet. Many praises, so that many Confucian students want to lose weight. After making a painful decision, a video of a girl using a fairy pipe attracted 170 million netizens.
In the video, a girl inserts a 50-centimeter-long tube through her esophagus into her stomach. During the insertion process, a cloudy liquid kept pouring out of the audience. Once it reaches the stomach, undigested food gushes out of the stomach.
Most netizens felt stomach discomfort when they saw this scene, saying that they could not accept such a way to lose weight.
In order to better promote the pipe, merchants have called it "healthy, environmentally friendly, and harmless to the body", and some even use advanced technology to endorse it. Can't everyone see that this is a scam? What exactly deceives many men and women who want to lose weight?
1. How does "fairy control" induce vomiting without harming the body?
The fairy tube is essentially a long tube made of plastic material. Merchants advertise it as an emetic device that flushes undigested food out of the body and prevents weight gain. In order to create the charm of fairy tubes, the product introduction repeatedly emphasized: "no foreign matter, no side effects".
In the mouth of a merchant, the diameter of the fairy tube is smaller than that of the esophagus, and entering the esophagus does not cause serious discomfort. In addition, the fairy tube has a soft texture and does not damage the lining of the esophagus or stomach. It can even prevent stomach acid from eroding the esophagus when vomiting, thus protecting the health of the esophagus. It is a healthier and safer way to induce vomiting.
But this statement is entirely a self-righteous assumption. Fairy vomit causes more damage to the body than we think!
First of all, after the fairy tube enters the esophagus, it will inevitably cause damage to the esophagus.
The esophagus is a muscular tube with a certain elasticity that pushes food into the stomach through its contraction and relaxation.
Its normal operation is usually downward. When vomiting is induced, the esophagus spasms and contracts due to nerve stimulation. On the one hand, it is for self-defense, and on the other hand, it is to squeeze out the remaining food in the esophagus and prevent blockage. Therefore, the use of fairy tubes to induce vomiting will compress the esophagus, and there is a high probability of contact with foreign bodies.
The esophagus itself is very fragile and there is an increased risk of damage. The esophagus is a dead object that obstructs the peristalsis of the esophagus itself. If used too often, it is likely to affect the normal function of the esophagus and even hinder eating.
In addition, the esophagus near the mouth is close to the trachea and vocal cords and adjoins the spine as it deepens. The esophagus also curvatures to some extent as it enters the heart and lung area, avoiding some tissues. During the insertion of the fairy tube, it is very likely to compress the trachea, damage the vocal cords, and even affect the function of other organs.
Secondly, stomach function may also be abnormal. The stomach is the main place where the body absorbs nutrients. Adequate nutrition is fundamental to the proper functioning of the body. In order to better monitor the health of the stomach and facilitate the transportation of nutrients, the digestive system is surrounded by nerves and blood vessels, which is why the stomach has also become the second largest sensory organ in the human body.
Therefore, when the fairy tube enters the stomach, the nerves are immediately stimulated and the food in the stomach comes out. However, artificial stimulation can affect the normal functioning of the digestive tract, making the stomach nerves more sensitive.
Especially in people who induce vomiting for a long time, the nerves in the stomach transmit painful sensations to the brain. At this time, the brain will suppress the desire to eat to protect itself and reduce this nerve pain, which is medically called anorexia nervosa. In addition, vomiting caused by fairy tubes can also affect oral health and the normal function of the heart.
2. Being too fat or too thin increases the risk of many diseases.
Today, improved economic standards and increased food production have made it easier to obtain food. With the development of the modern food industry, the taste of food has become more exciting, but the nutritional value of food has also declined.
Under the influence of many factors, the number of obese people in mainland China has gradually increased. In 2020, the "Report on the Nutrition and Chronic Diseases of Chinese Residents" pointed out that the overweight rate of adults in mainland China was 34.3%, and the obesity rate reached 16.4%, ranking first in the world.
On the other hand, the aesthetic pursuit of modern people is gradually biased towards "white thinness", thinking that the thinner the more beautiful, so many people struggle between eating and losing weight. But in fact, people who are too fat or too thin have a higher risk of several diseases:
1. Too thick
From a circular perspective, overweight people consume too much lipids, sugars, and carbohydrates. After these foods enter the stomach, they are converted into cholesterol and glucose and enter the bloodstream. Too much cholesterol and glucose in the blood directly increases the risk of hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia.
In addition, an increase in cholesterol and sugar also increases the risk of substances deposited in blood vessels. The gradual accumulation of deposits can easily block blood vessels.
If the coronary arteries are blocked and not enough blood returns to the heart, it is easy to get heart disease and even myocardial infarction. When the blood vessels in the brain are blocked, blood cannot flow to the brain, and the brain is prone to ischemia and hypoxia, resulting in cerebral infarction.
To better lower blood lipids, blood transports cholesterol to organs or converts it into fat and collects on the body surface. If the amount of lipids in organ cells increases, it can lead to organ hypertrophy and reduce the efficiency of the organ. For example, fatty liver refers to the fat content of liver cells exceeding a certain limit, resulting in liver dysfunction and the development of the disease.
2. Too thin
People who are too thin are not much better. The bones of the human body must be connected to muscles and tissues to complete the basic activities of the human body. People who are too thin are unable to provide enough protein for their muscles due to nutritional deficiencies. After losing muscle, the bone loses protection and the likelihood of fracture after impact increases greatly. Magnify. Muscle coordination is required for the proper functioning of many organs, such as the esophagus and stomach we discussed earlier. For better digestion, several muscles must interact to speed up peristalsis. When muscle strength is insufficient, it is likely to affect digestive function, ranging from indigestion to anemia due to insufficient nutrient intake.
Such people tend to have insufficient fat stores. Know that fat is an essential nutrient for the brain to work and can maintain the normal function of the human brain. If you don't have enough fat, it's likely that the brain will work slowly, and the nerves will become less sensitive and unable to efficiently gather information and perceive the surrounding environment. Decreased strength and even memory ability.
3. These "fats" are actually normal and may not need to be lost!
Many men and women feel that their bodies are fat, their bodies are not slim enough, and their curves are not perfect enough. But in fact, it's perfectly normal to have some fat in the body!
As they age, many people gradually develop small bellies, and a layer of meat grows on their stomachs when sitting. This is a phenomenon of self-defense of the human body. When we are young, we are in good health and our organs are functional. Even if some organs are sick, they can heal on their own quickly. As a result, young people accumulate less fat in their stomachs.
However, as we age, the function of organs decreases and so does the ability to regenerate itself. At this time, in order to protect the organs and avoid the serious impact of hot and cold air on the function of the organs, the body will unconsciously accumulate fat in the abdomen to reduce the risk of disease. Risk.
Plus, thick thighs aren't necessarily a bad thing.
Modern aesthetics favor chopstick legs, but in reality, our thigh gaps are small at normal weight, and some people with pear-shaped bodies make no difference at all.
Our external reproductive and urinary systems are hidden between the thighs. These two organs are one of the few places where they can communicate with the outside world. In order to prevent bacteria and viruses from daily life from entering the human body, our body hides them in the most secret places.
What's more, the thighs themselves are filled with meat that cushions external shocks. At the same time, the closure between the legs is also an external protection that reduces the possibility of external infection.
Conclusion:
All in all, fairy pipes are not only not as harmless as advertised by merchants, but even cause immeasurable harm to the body. It's just that the merchant gave it a seemingly harmless name for humans and animals.
It is not advisable to eat too much high-oil, high-salt, high-fat foods, which increases the risk of diseases such as hyperglycemia, fatty liver and hyperlipidemia. Do not exaggerate thinness as beauty, which will increase the occurrence of fractures, anemia and other diseases. Risk of decreased brain function.
