I've recently seen a TV commercial about a Velform sauna belt. It is a device that you wrap around the area you want to loose fat and it heats up and you start sweating in that part of the body and you loose inches from your abdomen, waist, back or hips, depending on where you use it. It's said to be like in the sauna and it even claims to enhance your metabolism (yeah right!!). It claims that you can loose a significant amount of fat in 2 weeks and there were before/after pics which were pretty amazing. However, I don't really believe this and loosing fat couldn't be that easy. So If anyone has any experience with this or some similar device of this kind please share your thoughts and views.

here's one link:
 
Spot training doesn't work, and you don't sweat fat out, you sweat water. The correlation between sweating and losing fat is only valid when the sweating is a result of getting your heart rate up, otherwise known as exercise.

You can sit in a sauna all day if you want, but the weight you lose will be strictly waterweight.

-edit-
The only valid claim they might have is "relax muscles", but you might as well just take a hot shower.
 
The commercial said that you will see results after each use of the device, you put it on for one hour per day and in such short time you will notice a difference. I cannot really tell if it dehydrates the body but it makes it sweat so I guess that means that is dehydrates it. The device simply heats up and makes the part of the body sweat and they claim that by one hour usage you loose about 600 calories, I find that hard to believe, cuz if that was true, than why bother doing cardio?
 
Don't believe it. The fat equivalent of 600 cal is around 60gms. I think it looses 60 gms of water that I could believe and nothing else.

No replacement for cardio! Cardo works the heart muscles so that the heart can pump blood more efficiently.

I saw this. I believe that it does what they claimed in the commercial which was not (from what I saw) to reduce fat but to make you slimmer and more tone. They would measure immediately after taking it off and I bet that will work... for a few minutes until the body heals and rehydrates the area. It is perfect for taking photos of yourself to impress your freinds. Not much else though. It certainly will not give you lasting results. I am not absolutely certain it even does what it says, but it seems sound.
 
Sound marketing bull**** lol You'll lose water that's it which you don't want to do when trying to burn fat.
 
Pure... Bull... Sh... My jaw dropped when I saw that commerical. It's just insane that somebody would to market something like that.
 
I just saw the tv commercial this morning and couldn't stop laughing! The amazing thing is they are charging $120 for it! I feel sorry for people who fall for this kind of stuff and it really ticks me off when companies take advantage of people's ignorance.
 
Yeah since posting my first comment i seen that commerical many times, the goverments should not allow people to steal from innocent folks like that. Its disgusting.
