Why cant I use lotions when Im on The Cajun Diet?
Your skin is the largest organ in your body. It is made up of 3 layers: the Epidermis the outer layer, the Dermis the 2nd layer, beneath the Epidermis, and Subcutaneous the 3rd layer, beneath the Dermis. The skin metabolizes all oil that is placed on it, by absorbing it through the Epidermis, Dermis & Subcutaneous layers, in a process called Transdermal Absorption, much the same way that your body metabolizes butter that you eat, which is absorbed through internal organs. The HCG is looking for fat to burn. If you put lotion on your body, the HCG may burn that fat instead of seeking out the abnormal fat reserves in your body. This may cause your weight loss to stall.
