What do body wraps do for weight loss?

Dr. Kathleen Hands answered
Endocrinology 67 years experience
Water loss: It dehydrates the fat tissue which is like a sponge and will come right back. Unless you change your dietary habits dramatically. Eat more protein, drink more water, avoid carbohydrates which cause water retention and avoid excessive sodium. Your body wrap might last a week or more that way.

More info is needed: You need to eat! if you are not being seen by a physician, you must make an appointment for a complete history and physical today or tomorrow and you must eat and drink until you are seen. If you have pain preventing your eating, you should go to an emergency room! please listen!
