Tired of gaining weight in the winter? Do you associate winter in your mind with fat accumulation? What is the secret of cryotherapy or cryotherapy? Follow the article to find out how to get what you dream of during the winter.

Seasons and weight

Many people, and perhaps you are one of them my dear, suffer from weight and fat gaining, especially during the winter compared to the summer, as it is the season of being quiet and enjoying the warmth of the bed, unlike the summer, which is full of energy and activities. But do not worry my dear, in this article, you will find the solution! And we will learn the secret behind losing weight and raising the burning rate in the winter and enjoying the lines of your skinny body in preparation for the summer season, based on proven and scientific studies, and applied to thousands of people.

However, my dear, and because we care for your health in the first place, we remind you of the need to consult your doctor before doing the method that we will mention in case you suffer from a health problem.

Adipose tissue in our bodies

Before delving into details, you must distinguish the difference between the normal cold that we feel in normal times, and shivering, and this follows the idea of ​​thermogenesis without sports activities (neat = non exercise activity thermogenesis) and (burning fat without sports, activities and without diets), and what we will talk about today which is the shivering.

To better understand the topic, you should know that in our bodies we have several types of fat cells and tissues, we will mention some of them and what we are interested in knowing:

• White adipose tissues, which are concentrated on the belly, thighs, and arms.
• Beige adipose tissues, which are concentrated on vital organs in the human body such as the liver, pancreas, and the digestive system.
• Brown Adipose Tissues, which are important in our topic today, is a high-temperature oven for your body fat, as it helps to burn blood sugar (glucose) directly, as cryotherapy targets these tissues to raise the burning rate.

But! What is this cryotherapy technique? And what are its benefits generally in medicine and particularly in the field of fat burning? So dear, let’s get to know together this technique, and how it will help us burn the fat in our body.

Cryotherapy:

Cryotherapy is a treatment where your healthcare provider applies extreme cold to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue. Cryotherapy can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions and some cancers, including prostate and liver cancer. This therapy can treat tissue externally (on the skin) and internally (inside the body). This treatment can also be called cryoablation.

Now honey, get ready with us to understand the mechanism of cold therapy in burning fat in a simple and easy way. We have two aspects:

The first aspect:

When exposed to low temperatures and cryotherapy techniques, this thing will activate the central nervous system in our bodies, and this will lead to the activation of the sympathetic nervous system, and this system causes a reaction in the body represented by a common saying (fight or flight), so that the body will be in a state of intense alertness to face the difficulties it is facing, and this activation will lead to the release of huge amounts of a chemical compound in our bodies called “Noradrenaline”, which is responsible for many of the effects that we will notice after cryotherapy, as it works on fat cells to mobilize fat to be burned to obtain energy, which makes sense if the body is on alert (remember fight or flight), and luckily we can also take advantage of that to help also achieve your fat loss goals.

The second aspect:

Cryotherapy techniques also help your body metabolize food (burning food), which means digesting it and converting it into energy to help you carry out your daily activities. as the burning rate will increase in oder to maintain balance against cold, which is known as cold thermal generation, Not only will it help you get rid of extra fat, but it will help you to withstand the cold for a long period of time, and therefore your body will burn more fat to stay warm, meaning that your fat has become a savior from feeling cold, as it is like firewood.

Do you think that the benefits of this treatment will stop here? Of course not! Cryotherapy has many benefits, especially for athletes. If you are an athletic girl, prepare yourself to find out interesting information and it will definitely benefit you! So is it possible that cryotherapy can help increase your strength and rigidity and improve your athletic performance?

Your body needs inflammatory responses after training to promote recovery after exercise and for muscle growth, so using cryotherapy an hour after training will enhance the natural anti-inflammatory response, as noradrenaline reduces systemic inflammation by directly reducing the inflammatory cytokines TNF-alpha, and helps remove some remains that result from muscle exercise, as shown by studies.

It also activates powerful antioxidant systems, as antioxidants contribute to everything from fighting infection to reducing inflammation after exercise.

Some other interesting effects of cryotherapy have also been found that will help you through your life, including:

• Cryotherapy promotes regeneration of synapses (the junction area between nerve cells) during the warm-up process after exposure to cold, and this may be beneficial to prevent neurodegeneration as growing old, so you will remain young even as you age.
• Cryotherapy also increases the number of white blood cells, which helps fight infections, diseases and even some types of cancer, and studies are still ongoing about the importance of this type of treatment in fighting cancer.
• Cryotherapy causes what is known as hormonal stress, a condition of the body that responds to small doses of stress in a way that enhances your resistance against greater stresses in the future, on the principle that you are exposed to simple stresses repeatedly, which will give you immunity from large stresses in the events that they occur in the future.
• The previously mentioned chemical “Noradrenaline” will increase attention, focus and enhance mood.

And to answer the question on your mind, my dear, now, how can cryotherapy be applied for weight loss and fat loss?

This is done by being exposed to certain temperatures (below 100 degrees Celsius), and for a certain period of time ranging from one minute to five minutes, which will cause shivering , and thus the occurrence of what was previously mentioned. You may not bear this severe cold, but when you think about the future, and the slim body that you will get, you will have an increased sense of resistance and acceptance of what happens, so always remember that what you are doing is in order to get the body that you have always dreamed of!

Finally, Do not forget darling to consult a professional specialist if you suffer from certain diseases, as well as if you suffer from weak immunity, or you know that your body does not take this process, please do not do it and avoid exposing your body to health problems that you do not need!
