THE SCIENCE OF HIJAMAH FOR WEIGHT LOSS
With age time and a sedentary lifestyle we all end up gaining weight at some point I nour lives. This happens mainly because of two changes to the physiology, although there could be many other contributing factors such as diet, sleep and inactivity.
However we will primarily be focusing on the two specific shifts within the body's physiology and how Hijamah could reverse these changes.
1).PHYSIOLOGY
A). Hypoxia -Low Oxygen levels
B). Acidosis - High Acidity
A). Hypoxia (low oxygen) and acidosis (low pH) both push the body into a state that favors fat storage and weight gain.
Hypoxia slows metabolism, increases lactate that the liver converts into fat, activates fat-making genes, causes inflammation, and reduces leptin sensitivity, leading to more hunger and less calorie burning.
B). Acidosis further blocks fat -burning enzymes, raises cortisol, promotes insulin resistance, encourages the creation of new fat cells, and slows thyroid activity.
Together, hypoxia and acidosis create a cycle where fat is harder to burn, easier to store, and appetite increases, making long-term weight gain much more likely.
HIJAMAHS ROLE
Hijamah aids weight loss indirectly by improving blood circulation, Hijamah removed arterial plaque from blood vessels which enhances oxygen delivery to tissues and supports better metabolism as redundant occluded blood vessels are made viable once again.
Oxygen helps burn calories by enabling aerobic metabolism,
It can also help reduce inflammation and tissue congestion, making it easier for the body to regulate insulin and burn fat more efficiently. Many people experience lower stress and cortisol after Hijamah, which further reduces fat storage, especially around the abdomen.
Fresh (Vascular) blood is ever so slightly alkaline with a PH of 7.35.
Hijamah blood (Blood stasis) has a range from 6.8 down to about 5. Having this blood stasis removed facilitates in the removal of acidity and help neutralize body , effectively reducing inflammation, and less stress can create a healthier internal environment that supports fat burning and metabolic balance.
CONCLUSION
Increasing oxygen and reducing acidity helps with weight loss by improving the body’s ability to burn fat efficiently. More oxygen allows the mitochondria to produce energy at a higher rate, which speeds up metabolism, reduces lactate buildup, and lowers inflammation, making fat burning easier.
At the same time, reducing acidity restores fat-burning enzymes, which regulates the production and storage of excess lipids. It also improves insulin sensitivity, lowers cortisol, supports thyroid function, and decreases inflammation.
Hijamah has the capability of both increasing oxygen levels and attain a more balanced pH shift to withdraw the body out of fat-storing mode and into fat-burning mode, making weight loss more effective and sustainable.
