    Thank you! Yes, I do believe in the herbal ones as well. They really help get those extra toxins from the body. I currently use apple cider vinegar and vitamin e oil (to help with my scarring and healing of my stomach)... and it works great. I will look into this link as well. Thank you :)

    Can you define these toxins? Name one? JUST one?

    From air, food or water?

    Air=methane
    Food=any pesticide that is sprayed on it AND FOOD COLORING
    Water=Chlorine and then there is the whole hexavalent chromium thing (ever heard of Erin Brockavich?)

    Our bodies do hold onto toxins, our liver does what it can to clean it but it takes some time, I mean if it did not, then no one would have to worry about waiting 28 days to pass a drug test now would they?

    And another toxin is alcohol believe it or not, but the body works hard to try and take care of it first, that is why our bodies store other things while consuming alcohol.

    And then there is mercury.....would you like me to name more?

    And wrapping yourself in saran wrap gets rid of methane, food coloring, pesticides, and chlorine.

    Right?

    Actually, thinking about it, wrapping yourself in an impermeable membrane makes it harder to expel methane....

    Nope, those things are useless. The girl asked for a toxin to be named, and I granted her wish.

    She asked for one of the toxins that the wraps help remove.

    "They really help get those extra toxins from the body?"

    No one is disputing the existence of toxins. We are disputing the idea that there are toxins a body wrap "helps the body get rid of."
  • When anyone mentions wraps I expect people to be wrapped in a very large Tortilla.

    lol--my image too :-)

    Then I will admit I read the question wrong. I read "Can you define these toxins? Name one?". There are so many people that claim that the body does not hold onto toxins here and that the liver immediately cleans it out and there is no other way to rid the body of toxins. I do not believe the wraps work but do believe things like exercise, massage, epsom baths and some herbal teas can assist your body in removing these toxins. Since I have IBS and low HCL, I feel a good colon cleanse does my body good as well.

    Now I am going to back out of this thread because I have no desire to be called illogical and told I have a low IQ. But yall can argue about it all night long if ya want. :flowerforyou:

    So many posts, so few responses to the original question. I've found this DIY wrap to be particularly effective for weight loss.

    I have not tried this but I saw it on tv. You rub the area you want to work on with hemorrhoid cream, wrap in plastic wrap, and go to sleep with it on. In the morning its supposed to shrink you. I may try it someday.

    Garbage bags and duct tape!

    Garbage bags are far superior in getting rid of toxins and junk. Cuz that is what they were made for. All other wraps are just over priced pretenders. Somebody is getting rich off it.

    See because plastic has toxic properties, it attracts and absorbs other toxins, and then sitting there stewing in it, you couldn't possibly absorb them back in, so it's good, yes? And when you use the duct tape you also apply to face and bikini area, bargain hair removal, instead of that expensive trip to the salon for wax.

    preparation h + saran wrap

    I'm sure you meant to post in the "made for each other" thread. Easy mistake.

    OP - Add me to the "don't trust it, doesnt work" vote.

    preparation h + saran wrap

    This and ONLY for an occasion type thing, say for a special occasion that you want to fit into a slimming dress for, like a HS reunion, wedding or something like that. Other than that, they do nothing long term for the body.


    PS: Dont buy a super tight dress and drink a bunch of water.

    People actually DO this??? Not EVEN for a special occasion. lol

    Thank you! Yes, I do believe in the herbal ones as well. They really help get those extra toxins from the body. I currently use apple cider vinegar and vitamin e oil (to help with my scarring and healing of my stomach)... and it works great. I will look into this link as well. Thank you :)

    Can you define these toxins? Name one? JUST one?

    From air, food or water?

    Air=methane
    Food=any pesticide that is sprayed on it AND FOOD COLORING
    Water=Chlorine and then there is the whole hexavalent chromium thing (ever heard of Erin Brockavich?)

    Our bodies do hold onto toxins, our liver does what it can to clean it but it takes some time, I mean if it did not, then no one would have to worry about waiting 28 days to pass a drug test now would they?

    And another toxin is alcohol believe it or not, but the body works hard to try and take care of it first, that is why our bodies store other things while consuming alcohol.

    And then there is mercury.....would you like me to name more?

    And wrapping yourself in saran wrap gets rid of methane, food coloring, pesticides, and chlorine.

    Right?

    Nope, those things are useless. The girl asked for a toxin to be named, and I granted her wish.

    She asked for one of the toxins that the wraps help remove.

    "They really help get those extra toxins from the body?"
    "Can you define these toxins? Name one?"

    No one is disputing the existence of toxins. We are disputing the idea that there are toxins a body wrap "helps the body get rid of."

    Then I will admit I read the question wrong. I read "Can you define these toxins? Name one?". There are so many people that claim that the body does not hold onto toxins here and that the liver immediately cleans it out and there is no other way to rid the body of toxins. I do not believe the wraps work but do believe things like exercise, massage, epsom baths and some herbal teas can assist your body in removing these toxins. Since I have IBS and low HCL, I feel a good colon cleanse does my body good as well.

    Now I am going to back out of this thread because I have no desire to be called illogical and told I have a low IQ. But yall can argue about it all night long if ya want. :flowerforyou:

    THESE toxins. Not any toxins. The ones the slimming wrap gets rid of.

    When anyone mentions wraps I expect people to be wrapped in a very large Tortilla.

    Me too!! :laugh:

    I love getting body wraps, but they are ridiculously expensive. Look around your area and see if you happen to have a massage store locally. If not, you can PM me and I'll send you some links to wholesale places online. You don't need a license to purchase them, but, you'll probably be pretty miffed at how cheap it is to buy a container of a body wrap base compared to how much you use and how much they charge for them. :laugh: If you like doing them, then do it.

    For those asking how they help, we are taught that the wraps help the body to process the impurities in the body more easily. I don't really care if they do, or if they don't, but I LOVE the way they make me feel afterwards. And, honestly, "enjoyment" is a good enough reason for me to get them when I can.

    Our bodies do hold onto toxins, our liver does what it can to clean it but it takes some time, I mean if it did not, then no one would have to worry about waiting 28 days to pass a drug test now would they?

    And another toxin is alcohol believe it or not, but the body works hard to try and take care of it first, that is why our bodies store other things while consuming alcohol.

    And then there is mercury.....would you like me to name more?

    And wrapping yourself in saran wrap gets rid of methane, food coloring, pesticides, and chlorine.

    Right?

    Nope, those things are useless. The girl asked for a toxin to be named, and I granted her wish.

    She asked for one of the toxins that the wraps help remove.

    "They really help get those extra toxins from the body?"
    "Can you define these toxins? Name one?"

    No one is disputing the existence of toxins. We are disputing the idea that there are toxins a body wrap "helps the body get rid of."

    Then I will admit I read the question wrong. I read "Can you define these toxins? Name one?". There are so many people that claim that the body does not hold onto toxins here and that the liver immediately cleans it out and there is no other way to rid the body of toxins. I do not believe the wraps work but do believe things like exercise, massage, epsom baths and some herbal teas can assist your body in removing these toxins. Since I have IBS and low HCL, I feel a good colon cleanse does my body good as well.

    Now I am going to back out of this thread because I have no desire to be called illogical and told I have a low IQ. But yall can argue about it all night long if ya want. :flowerforyou:

    THESE toxins. Not any toxins. The ones the slimming wrap gets rid of.
