Weight-loss-devices

Slimming machines range from devices with some clinical evidence (medical cryolipolysis, certain EMS devices) to consumer gadgets with no credible evidence. This article reviews the physiological mechanisms and clinical evidence for the major device categories.

Devices marketed as 'slimming ion' or ionic weight loss technology lack credible clinical evidence. This article examines the specific claims made, the actual physics of ions in the body, and what the evidence does and does not support for related device-based approaches.
