WEIGHT LOSS THROUGH ICE WATER
In 2008 a study conducted by Ray Cronise, NASA scientist, ice-water or Cryo H2O is a great accelerator for the weight loss.
How?
Simply by putting his body in immersion in ice-water during 10-20 minutes 3 times a week.
Ray Cronise tested this method on himself and lost more than 13 kg in 6 weeks.
He also exposed the research to the public at a TED conference and drew the attention of the writer Timothy Ferriss who has some interest for his history and has written a book “The 4-Hourbody” referring to his work in order to allow understanding this phenomenon with everybody who want it.
What is the mechanism?
A sudden cold, causes a significant loss of heat.
In this way, the energy expended by the body to warm up allows a larger consumption of calories.
This phenomenon, called thermogenesis, accelerates the burning of glycogen in the cells. If the muscle and liver glycogen is depleted, then the body withdraws on brown adipose tissue (brown fat) to the fat loss.

If we compare a Cryo H2O processus with physical exercise, we note that 60% of the energy is expended to stabilize the body temperature at 37 ° C, while only 28% ensure the needs of the physical exercise.
Therefore, cooling the body is more efficient in terms of heat consumption than physical exercise, because the Cryo H2O can multiply by 6 the energy expenditure while exercise only allows double it.
Today, several cryotherapy methods exist, but some of them are still controversial for their risk of thermal shock or skin burns (exemple : cryotherapy chambers going up to -110 ° C, Cryolipolysis devices to -5 ° C).
The best way today is, Cryo H2O of course. Because, remember, we talk about cryotherapy from 13.6 ° C.
All the studies conducted on this subject have proven that Cryo H2O is as effective as exposure to negative temperature of -5° or -110°C over a comparable time.
It is advisable to make a 20 minutes of immersion 3 times a week at 12°C for visible results within weeks.
Thus it is easier to calmly understand the weight loss.
The CRYO CONTROL technology allows to maintain an sufficient volume of ice water at a constant temperature. Our range CRYO CONTROL FORM is a simple, effective and painless solution for an optimum thinning.
A study in the CRYO CONTROL Company showed the following results:
Over a period of 10 days at a rate of 4 sessions of 20 minutes of immersion at 12 ° C / week
– Skin tightening
– Immediate sensation of well-being
– Cm loss on the following areas:
- Lap belt
- Hips
- Tour of the thighs
- Top knees
- Ankle Tour
Cryo Control, will lead during the following months, other studies in order to provide a complete protocol, allowing to have new data, qualitative and quantitative, about using Cryo H2O in the thinning process.
