Could this be a new trend or what? LMAO … This got me thinking
though, what if our fellow Nigerian women pick up the trend and
also decide to stare under the Hot scorching African sun so as to
lose weight??? LMAO… Their blackness no go get part 2! Lol
A new supposed ‘health’ trend in Hong Kong sees women staring
straight at the sun in the belief that it will replace their need for
food and even improve their vision and sleep quality.
Oriental Daily reports that the women, between ages 20 and 30
years old, head to the Sam Ka Village beach in Lei Yue Mun
every evening and take off their shoes and sunglasses before
setting their phone timers and stand to stare at the sunset –
some using an umbrella or a tissue to protect their skin.
We practice sun-gazing as a substitute for eating.
Some of us who have finished the therapy now eat
less, and others don’t have to eat at all,’
one woman told the publication.
She said they start by looking at the sun for up to 10 seconds on
the first day, adding 10 seconds every day until they reach 44
minutes by the ninth month of practice.
Dermatology specialist, Hou Xiang Jun , is concerned about the
rising trend, saying the subtropical region, high ultraviolet degree
and water reflection is leading to far too much ultraviolet light
absorption.
‘Even if painted with sunscreen they can only
withstand five to six per cent of the damage, an
umbrella or cap can only take 10 – 20 per cent and
long exposure, in addition to sunburn, will increase
the risk of serious skin cancer,’ Mr Xiang Jun told
Oriental Daily.
