According to recent statistics, over half the population in North America is overweight or obese. This is a staggering number, especially considering this figure keeps going up and up. As a result, it is certainly not surprising that the internet has been flooded with all kinds of magical cures and quick fixes to address this severe epidemic.

Among such instant remedies that promise amazing results is the It Works Ultimate Body Applicator, more commonly as the body wrap. Invented by Luis Mujares, a scientist on the quest to cure skin cancer, the product was quickly patented and eventually sold to It Works in 2001. Since then the It Works body wrap has become the flagship product of their entire line of health and weight loss products. To understand how something like the body wrap could deliver on such impressive and unbelievable claims, we will first have to take a closer ...
... look at the science of fat cells.

People who gain weight are not actually gaining more fat cells. The number of fat cells you have is set in childhood and remains constant throughout adulthood. Instead, existing fat cells are becoming inflated and enflamed. In fact, a single fat cell can expand to be approximately 1,000 times its original size. It is these oversized and enflamed fat cells that cause all the unsightly bulges, rolls and even cellulite. A large contributor to this issue is the toxic diets that have become pretty much the norm across North America. Processed foods filled to the brim with unnatural additives, preservatives, and chemicals are a huge factor in the obesity rate across this country. Our bodies, including our fat cells, have become toxic.

So how does the Ultimate Body Applicator work on fat cells? First and foremost, the all-natural ingredients contained within the body wrap promote a process called Lipolysis. This literally means "fat-breaking". The plant extracts and botanicals get into the fat cell and chop up the large fat molecules into smaller ones, which are now allowed to exit the cell. They are then burned up as energy somewhere else in the body, which is one reason why we want you to be well hydrated while you are using the applicators.  This will help circulate the little fat molecules that are being released. The end result is a reduction in the overall size of the targeted fat cells.

The second major function of the wrap is to detoxify fat cells. Oversized fat cells can harbour a substantial amount of toxins. These toxins, when released from the cell, can also have a substantial impact on the size of the fat cells. This is another reason why once again it is absolutely vital to consume a large amount of water during the process. Water will help flush these toxins from the body. Without enough water, these toxins will simply redeposit themselves in the body and substantially undermine the whole detoxification process.

The third major function of the wrap is to promote microcirculation. Microcirculation is the delivery of fresh blood to the smallest blood vessels throughout the body. This is what creates the tightening, toning and firming effect of the body wrap, lasting some people months and months. The appearance of cellulite, stretch marks and scars are also greatly reduced as a result, leaving your skin looking much smoother and even.

The fourth and final major function of the wrap is the overall anti-inflammatory affect the wrap has on the whole targeted area. Fat tissue is terribly inflamed because of all the toxins. Again, we get tightening, firming and toning because we’ve increased the overall health of the area and reduced the overall inflammation of the skin, leaving skin much healthier in appearance.

The effects of a single wrap continue for approximately 72 hours after removing it and can last indefinitely, assuming you maintain a healthy diet and exercise regime. However, for optimal results it is highly recommended you use four wraps within a two week period. Although the It Works body wrap is not a substitute for healthy eating and exercise, it can certainly be a pivotal jumpstart and turning point in an overall healthier lifestyle. For some people, a moment of what seems like magic is all they need to inspire them in a positive direction, and make what seemed unattainable finally and truly attainable. Every journey must start with a single step, and this is one step you certainly don't want to miss out on.
