I started a “petrochemical weight loss protocol” today. The version I’m using calls for three oils: a citrus blend, ledum, and grapefruit oil. Mix 10 drops of ledum oil into 5 mils of citrus, and apply some before bed to fatty areas. At the same time, fill a capsule with 20 drops of grapefruit oil and swallow.
Supposedly the citrus+ledum dissolves the fat and the grapefruit oil helps metabolize the fat that’s now in the bloodstream. One theory is that the body created the fat to encapsulate toxins, and that the citrus+ledum removes the toxins, allowing the fat to dissolve by itself. I actually started the prototocol this afternoon, and I noticed an interesting side effect (or coincidence)— my appetite was significantly reduced. For dinner I cooked one of my favorite foods — curry chicken — and I was satisfied with a much smaller portion than usual.
I’m applying it to my love handles (since no one has offered to use them as such) and to my mild case of pot belly. I’m 5’9” and 178 lbs to start with. I’ll update occasionally.
Husband is mostly in shape but is worried about his little pot belly. Crunchs are just not doing it they way they did when he was twenty.
This fat loss thing is interesting!! i will have to read up. I gained weight for no reason after I got heavily poisoned with diazanon years ago. Had a horrible miscarriage (I was 3 months) and within about 1 1/2 years developed RA, asthma and MCS and some weird heart issues, plus inexplicable weight gain.
