Cupping done on a full stomach causes many diseases.
The reason why cupping is done on an empty stomach is that the total fat and glucose rate and other harmful substances in the blood are at low levels when hungry. In this case, the heart, liver and kidneys are more active.
There are approximately 6-7 liters of blood in the body, and after eating, approximately 3-4 liters of blood is used to perform the digestive process. In this case, due to the decrease in blood pressure and the slowdown in blood circulation, it becomes difficult to clean toxic substances with cupping. It can even be harmful.
Because; when the blood is full, it accumulates in the abdominal cavity and the nutrition of our vital centers, the brain and heart, is weakened. In such cases, when cupping is applied, the blood volume going to the brain, heart and other vital hormone and enzyme producing glands decreases significantly, causing permanent illnesses such as stroke and infarction.
Animal food should not be consumed at least 24 hours in advance.
Because animal foods contain protein, they thicken the blood. Cupping performed by paying attention to the animal diet is more beneficial.
If you forget and eat a slice of cheese or a bite of meat, it's not a problem; if you drink a mixture of a tablespoon of olive oil, vinegar and olive oil, the effects of animal foods will be neutralized.
It is better not to have sexual intercourse 24 hours before.
Cima reduces stress but also slows down blood circulation. If blood circulation is poor, the desired benefit from cupping will not be obtained. Therefore, it is better not to do cima before cupping.
Nothing should be eaten for at least two hours. Appetite may increase a little after cupping. Spending the day with light foods as much as possible increases the benefits of cupping.
Avoiding sexual intercourse for 48 hours increases the benefits of cupping.
You can take a shower after 12-24 hours. However, applying olive oil or St. John's Wort oil to the area where the scars are immediately after the shower will be very beneficial in terms of healing the wounds quickly and leaving no traces.
Drinking vinegar water or honey sherbet after cupping is very beneficial because the common feature of both foods is that they are vasodilators.
Almost all animal foods contain protein and slow down the blood circulation rate. Therefore, an animal food diet should be followed at least 24 hours before, and if possible 48 or 72 hours before.
