Summary |
Nuga Low Frequency Pad
Solutions to the problem of obesity are seemingly endless, dieters trying every means possible to take off extra weight. From herbal supplements and diet foods, to plastic surgery and advanced exercise equipment, the products designed to help people lose weight are as diverse as the individuals they are marketing to. The Nuga Low Frequency Pad falls into the category of diet aids that harnesses the power of electrical currents to supposedly reduce and smooth out problem areas. While TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is used therapeutically to treat a variety of problems, there is little proof to support its use as a weight loss solution. |

All the needed equipment for the Nuga Low Frequency Pad system is contained in a briefcase. One half of the case contains the control panel and the other is a storage area for the pads. The two pads are flexible cloth bands that contain tiny conductive wires. When the pads are strapped around the arms, thighs, or abdomen and the machine is turned on, mild TENS currents are sent into the body. TENS is purported to gently stimulate nerves, signaling them to relax. While TENS is commonly used to relieve muscle and joint pain, it does not typically have a history of aiding weight loss.
The control panel allows users to input the part of the body they are stimulating as well as the strength of the current. There is an acupressure chart on the control panel to guide the customer who is using the Nuga Low Frequency Pad for pain relief purposes. This kit comes with an abdominal pad as well so that “partial excess fat” can be removed from the back and belly areas.

NugaBest hosts websites in each of the countries where their products sell. Each page, however, is similar in content especially when it comes to the Low Frequency Pad. Information about this product is limited; most pages offer only a very brief description accompanied by a few pictures of the device in use. None of the Nuga sites allow customers to buy online, rather they provide a phone number that allows you to call orders in.

| Conclusion |
|
We are not denying the use of TENS therapy, though we have some reservations regarding its use as a weight loss treatment. The Nuga Low Frequency Pad may leave you feeling better but it will not be because you’ve lot extra weight. Ridding your body of fat, especially in those problem areas, takes a commitment to a weight loss program. While some weight loss aids can certainly be incorporated into your program—particularly if you find a supplement that burns fat and suppresses appetite—you should use diet and exercise as your main means to a new body. With a regular workout and healthy eating habits, you will be freed from stubborn, excess fat in no time.
