Acupressure Or Anti Obesity Medications
Drugs which are available as anti obesity medications control the weight of a person by changing the metabolism of the body on account of changed food habits. There are unavoidable side effects when we use these medications and the results are reversible and temporary in nature. Even doctors prescribe them as the last resort to address the menace of obesity. Prior to using these drugs, other treatment techniques like dieting and physical exercises are tried out. Mostly these weight loss diets themselves work by altering the way our body works and it take a long time to restore normalcy.
Acupressure is a natural treatment technique with no side effects. Its effectiveness is time-tested and does not involve the use of any chemical. As a result, it does not pose any threat to the normal functioning of the body. Some chemicals used in the preparation of anti-obesity drugs work by altering the function of hormones in the body. It is for these very reasons that we should prefer Acupressure over anti-obesity drugs.
However, in certain health conditions like heart problems, skin infections or even during pregnancy, it is advisable to take the opinion of the physician before going ahead with it.
