One woman had to receive medical attention (severe burn and 5 inch scare) because her wrap came loose on her upper thigh and they did not rewrap her, she tried to fix it herself and couldn't. She says she didn't lose inches,only her money,and warns it's dangerous. She suggests for people to stay away from it. Personally,I ALWAYS say,( a quick fix is no fix) my suggestion is do it the right way, eat healthy, take top of the line supplements, exercise, get enough rest. That's just a healthy lifestyle, And avoid stress! About Body Wraps- Not too far from where i live about 40 miles away there is someone who offers slender wraps.

Of course there are some fast ways to lose weight: if you cut your leg off, for instance, you'll lose a few pounds in a hurry. Especially if you wear heavy shoes. I'm amazed some of these are real.

But they don't make up for a poor diet. I agree raw vinegar, raw sauerkraut and other acidic fermented foods are great digestive aids. But they don’t make up for a poor diet.

It’s just that it doesn’t have any real weight-loss or fat-loss properties as we reference here." Agreed...as I think I said too that any weight loss claims alone are bogus to ACV. I just need to make sure my stock in Bragg doesn't go down. ;) Hell...could probably sell it as a good silverware polisher too! “Mike OD, I know people who use ACV as an anti-microbial and I have no issue with that.
