How to Support Fat Loss With Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy is a non-invasive procedure designed to help remove body fat from targeted areas without having to go through the pains and hassles of surgery. Triggering the formation of pores found in fat cells, red light therapy stimulates your cells to release fatty acids, AKA lipids, into your bloodstream, which results in measurable fat loss. In summation, red light therapy helps reduce the size of your fat cells, which helps reduce volume and reshape your body. While red light therapy is a fantastic option to visibly reduce body fat, your efforts will be exponentially more successful when you combine red light therapy with additional activities, like making sure you drink enough water, getting enough rest, adding exercise to your routine, and eating a healthy diet full of high protein foods, fruits, and veggies.
Stay Hydrated
Not only does drinking enough water help your body run properly, but it may also help you lose weight. Research has shown that when you drink enough water, your body feels satiated and you are less likely to overeat. Additionally, water helps fuel your workouts, making sure they’re more impactful. And staying hydrated helps your body metabolize stored fat. Drinking enough water is essential for burning fat from food, as well as stored fat.
Sleep Well
Many people have reported that when they don’t sleep enough, they tend to consume more calories. In fact, there is growing evidence that suggests that people who do not get enough sleep have a higher chance of gaining weight or becoming obese, than people who get seven to eight hours of sleep per night. Not only will getting enough rest at night improve your energy levels and make you feel better, but it can also help you maintain a healthy weight or it can even help your weight loss efforts.
Work It
You likely already know that exercising regularly can play a huge role in losing weight. That doesn’t mean you have to become a total gym rat, spending hours a day pumping iron. In order to find a fitness routine that suits you, try doing things you enjoy doing. Go for a walk and listen to your favorite album or podcast. Try yoga, water aerobics, or pilates. You’re more likely to keep up your routine when you do something you enjoy. And let’s not forget, red light therapy can help reduce signs of pain and inflammation, so if you overdo it, Avanti Body can help you recover and get you back into your sneakers.
Eat Healthily
Healthy eating is one of the most important things you can do to help yourself lose or maintain a healthy weight. Instead of going on some fad diet (which never works), we advocate for a more mindful approach. Don’t starve yourself, feed yourself healthy foods you enjoy. Load up on yummy fruits and veggies, high-protein snacks, and avoid refined carbs and too much sugar.
We hope these tips have been helpful. When you practice these activities along with enjoying the consistent benefits of red light therapy at Avanti Body, you will support your weight loss goals.
