4. Waist Training
Waist Trainers are used to train the waist to look thinner. They were famous in the 1500 and have become popular again. Though the doctors are against its continuous use.
The doctors warn it could cause serious long term damage. “It just crams all of your organs together. So over an extended period, wearing it too much and too frequently, it can cause harm,” says health and wellness expert Dr. Tasneem Bhatia, an Atlanta physician. Waist trainers make heartburn and indigestion worse, and women pass out after wearing them because they can’t get enough air
