7 wardrobe items you need to get rid of to stay healthy

Fashion dictates its own rules, and we always want to look stylish and modern. Some trends seem to operate on the “beauty requires sacrifice” principle. Collecting a wardrobe, we have to make a daily choice between showiness and comfort. But fashion is fleeting, and health is always important.

Lifepin.net has prepared an article for you about which clothes you should wear.

High-heeled shoes

The higher the heel, the longer your legs look. But there is another side to this feminine trick. Extra 5-10 cm of beauty can result in spinal curvature and back pain. To maintain balance when walking in high heels, the body increases the pressure on the knees and feet, and the pelvis is forced to shift up to 60 degrees depending on the height of the stiletto heel.

In addition, the constant wearing of heels can cause deformation of the calf muscles. Tendons become accustomed to being in an unnatural, compressed state and then have difficulty adapting to flat shoes.

Still, you should not completely abandon elegant shoes. Studies have shown that the optimal heel height is 2–4 cm. Experts offer their own formula for choosing a stiletto heel. Divide the foot length in cm by 7.

Skinny jeans

There is a horror story among lovers of loose clothing that a bra with thick cups and a push-up increases the risk of cancer. One hundred percent scientific evidence of this has not been found. However, even experts in the selection of underwear recommend being careful about choosing a bra and not wearing it 24 hours a day.

A spectacular push-up can squeeze the breasts and deform Cooper’s ligaments if the bra is not fitted correctly. Then it does not support the breast, and as a result, sagging may occur.

Push-up bras

Voluminous hoods 

Some people complain of neck pain when wearing a scarf or hooded jacket. This is possible because bulky items add weight, putting more stress on the spine. If neck pain is already present, the problem may worsen. But those who are all right with their health should be more careful. Experts have noticed that the hood greatly reduces the field of view, which increases the risk of getting into accidents, for example, when crossing the road.

Flip-flops and light slippers

 

It turns out that not only high heels are fraught with danger. Light slippers, flip-flops and ballet flats, in which the leg is not tightly fixed, provoke flat feet and the appearance of a heel spur, orthopedists scare us. After all, a person, trying to keep the sneaker on his foot, automatically tightens his fingers. In addition, slates are easier to trip over and damage toes or nails, and bacteria can grow on rubber soles.

Synthetic clothes

It is difficult to imagine the modern world without synthetic materials. Nevertheless, experts advise to be careful with clothes made from artificial fabrics. Some of the substances in these materials can cause allergies. Synthetic clothing sometimes looks more impressive outwardly, but at the same time does not fulfill its main function. Since the fabric does not allow air to pass through, it is hot in summer and cold in winter.

Bijouterie

 

American scientists studied raw materials for cheap jewelry from ordinary stores and found impurities of nickel, lead and even arsenic in many of the compounds. There is no need to be intimidated in advance, but you should not buy cute accessories just because of the attractive price.
