Has anyone used chinese medicine for weight loss and if so what were the results??

I have tried to lose about 10Ibs for a while now but even though I exercise 3 times a week - cardio, weights and swimming, those extra pounds won't shift. My eating habits are quite good, not perfect, but reasonable, I do loads of walking as well! - I'm 42 yrs old and am still trying to lose post baby fat (I have a 2yr old). Any suggestions??

1. Chinese herbs are risky. They are not standardised and you can never be really sure what you are getting. They also taste disgusting and in my opinion (after trying them!) they do not work. Just cut down on portion size and you will lose weight...;
2. You can go and get Chinese acupuncture, it works, but you have to drink some pretty bad tasting herbs.
3. eat less exercise more
4. Facil Amigo, Im a natural medical practitioner, and your method although quite reasonable is based on the old alopathic mentality of "magic pill" solution. Chinese remedies, just as western or Aryuvedics are all excelente products, however the root of the problema for the majority of cases of stuborn weight that wont go away is cause your BODY NEEDS IT. Le me explain, whenever we eat acid type foods, or foods that convert into acid once we ingest it, which unfortunately is just about anything NON ORGANIC now a days, well the body recognizes this as toxins, these food, uncontroled stress and alopatehic medicine genrated toxins can damage the sheath of the nerves and tissues, so the body sends this gummy substance out and envelops the toxins with mucus, this sticky substance that we experience visualy in excritions when we have a head cold, is used by the body as a defense mechanism to get rid of it, so it engulfs it and in a body properly balanced in PH, alcaline over acid, it will be excreted and no problem. However when someone is chronicaly over acid, the cells and tissues are now anaerobic and candida is one of the results, so now instead of being ejected from the body the mucus now accumulates in the inner wall of the intestine, lungs, internal organs and joints, to combat this situation the body now turns to producing excess of fat cells to engulf the mucus and try and move this mucus at least far away from the internal organs to protect them. You now have a vicious cycle of constant acid, mucus generation to get rid of the toxins and fat cells trying to get rid of both, so in respect the fat cells are actualy saving your life, but the end result is of course, those stubborn few pounds and in the case of obesity, a real challenge of getting rid of acid. My freidnly recommendation is to see a natural health physician, measure your PH level, follow his instructions and youll see the results you want. Have a healthy day Amigo, drorganico
5. I agree with Dr, Oraganico and work with a Naturopathic physician and a wonderful product that addresses these problems. Isagenix is a great cleanser. Toxins in the body from commercial vegetables, fast foods, breathing dirty air, drinking unpurified water, and the loss of natural hormones contributes to weight gain, premature aging and nearly every age-related health problem. Over eating and consumption of the wrong types of food also contribute to weight gain and obesity. Chemicals and toxins accumulate in fat tissue. The more chemicals and toxins, the more fat the body manufactures. Have you ever tried to lose weight only to be disappointed? Well, perhaps now you know the reason why! Most diets, lotions, pills, potions, and powders use unhealthy and potentially dangerous ingredients, such as ma huang, ephedra, and caffeine that promise fast weight loss. Yes, but the weight loss is primarily water and lean muscle. Minimal fat is lost because these products do not address the cleansing of the system. Without proper cleansing the lost lean muscle and water return as fat, thus people are actually fatter versions of their prior selves. Chemicals and toxins are bound within fat tissue, and only specifically blended nutrients can contribute to releasing the chemicals from fat. This is the healthy alternative to nutritionally deficient, disappointing and potentially deadly diets. Feel free to contact me if you would like more info.
