Is it dangerous to scratch your throat to induce vomiting?

Losing weight is an issue that many people are concerned about at any time, and there are many ways to lose weight. Most people do not have a long-term plan for losing weight, and they lose weight blindly. They just choose the method that others say is good. Picking the throat to lose weight is a popular method of weight loss in recent years. In fact, the method of picking the throat to lose weight is very harmful. The following specifically introduces the dangers of picking the throat to induce vomiting.

If you develop the habit of digging your throat to induce vomiting after eating, it is likely to lead to bulimia or anorexia, which will harm your body and your heart. Vomiting to lose weight is a very dangerous method of weight loss, which can cause serious damage to the human body. When vomiting, stomach acid can damage the esophagus, throat and teeth, making people feel uncomfortable and causing rough skin. Moreover, when picking your throat, if your nails are too long or you pick too hard, it may damage your throat. Repeated vomiting can cause reflux esophagitis, which can cause esophageal edema in mild cases and esophageal ulcers in severe cases. Vomitus can even corrode the esophagus for a long time, increasing the risk of esophageal cancer. Sometimes, excessive vomiting can cause cardia laceration, massive gastrointestinal bleeding, etc.

The vomiting weight loss method is deduced based on the principle that "eating is the same as not eating". The most obvious consequence of not eating for a long time in order to lose weight is malnutrition, low blood pressure, listlessness and lack of energy. If you develop the habit of digging your throat and spitting after eating, it is likely to lead to bulimia or anorexia, which will harm your body and your heart.

Japanese movie star Rie Miyazawa used this method to lose weight quickly, but ended up suffering from anorexia and only recovered after years of treatment. Some women also use smoking to lose weight. They smoke a cigarette before meals or on an empty stomach, which makes their stomach feel uncomfortable and they lose their appetite.

The vomiting method will also make you think "eat whatever you want, you will vomit it out anyway", which can easily cause you to overeat, thereby expanding your stomach, which is not conducive to weight loss.

The specific hazards of vomiting weight loss method are:

1. Facial deformation

You should know that regardless of whether you induce vomiting after binge eating, the chewing and tongue movement during binge eating, as well as the continuous secretion of saliva, will cause the facial muscles to develop, the salivary glands to become deformed and enlarged, and the face shape will be irreversibly ruined! Even if you remove the fat from your body, you will still look deformed and ugly like a big-headed doll.

2. Digestive system disorders

People who binge eat for a long time do not have a "huge" iron stomach as others imagine. The binge eaters themselves should know this best. In fact, the human body has limited absorption capacity, and not all food eaten is absorbed. If a person has a very healthy and strong digestive tract, with vigorous and energetic gastrointestinal motility and smooth excretion, excess calories and food will be excreted quickly, and with a little exercise, the excess calories will be consumed. This is the important reason why some people can eat a lot but not get fat. They are healthy. However, overeating is a killer of the healthy digestive system. It may cause slow gastrointestinal motility and constipation. If food stays in the body for a long time, the calories will be absorbed exponentially, and all kinds of problems will arise.

3. Sudden death due to vomiting

When I vomited, I felt my head was swollen and there was a buzzing in my ears. That's because intracranial pressure increases, blood rushes into the head, and blood vessels expand violently. Every time you vomit, you are touching the nose of the King of Hell. Really, non-professionals don’t know how dangerous this is.

4. Neurasthenia or even mental problems

People who binge eat usually hate themselves and live in contradiction and struggle. Depression causes binge eating, and binge eating causes new depression. This vicious cycle continues, and the psychological suggestion of self-denial is carried out for a long time. In severe cases, they may suffer a mental breakdown and become completely confused.

5. Esophageal ejection failure

Even though I have stopped binge eating, I still have this aftereffect, but it is getting better. The symptom is that even if you don't scratch your throat after eating, you will automatically feel nauseous and the food will be vomited out. This is because the esophageal sphincter has been over-stimulated and has lost its elasticity. The sphincter is like the lid of the stomach. If the lid is broken, the stomach will contract when digesting and will of course squeeze out food. It is difficult to hold back from vomiting, which brings a lot of inconvenience to social interaction and life, and also affects the image and self-esteem.
