What is the PIMA Paradox and what does it have to do with Weight Loss Surgery?
Unfortunately, sometimes people are not able to lose weight and to look great as they want. There are a lot of reasons that could interfere, such as sagging skin after a weight loss. My friend had such an issue. He lost his weight too fast and his skin was not so plastic. It was needed to find a clinic for body lifting in Mexico. It is not an easy operation and it is needed some preparation. It is important in such cases to realise what type of liposuction is a good fit for you. Everything was done well and that was the right decision because now he looks great. Just an operation and the problem is solved.
Of course genetics works in this situation, but everyone have opportunity to change their body and to get fit. It isn’t difficult at all. I have lost about 25 kg. Earlier I had typical life of american person, I ate junk food, played in computer games 6 hours per day and even didn’t think about workout. One time I looked in the mirror and was badly shocked. I was really fat. However, I didn’t know what i should to do to correct this situation. Then I have found modernfit.com and it’s changed my life, I don’t joke. Weight loss program has made something wonderful with my body. Everything depends only on you.
The PIMA Indians of Arizona are considered the most obese population in the United States by many scientists. However, members of their community who migrated to Mexico and are genetically the same, have no obesity problems whatsoever. The only difference between the two communities is lifestyle. The PIMAs of Mexico live the traditional life with no cars, no fast food, no junk food, no TV. These PIMAs work about 22 hours of hard labor a week, run or walk to every place they need to go, grind their own grain, do wash laundry in the river etc. Their diet is a low fat, high complex carb nutritional program. The PIMAs of Arizona live the same life as do most Americans with TV, cars, fast food and junk food. The result of this American lifestyle is a very high rate of obesity. This suggests that environmental factors play a large role in whether a person becomes very large or not, even if genetically predisposed.
