The
pressure in todays society to look great is rising and one gentle men went as
far as to inject himself with coconut oil in attempts to increase the size and
definition of him arm. Rachel Reltner released on December 1st an
article about an amateur body builder form the United Kingdom who took extreme
and dangerous measures for enhance him physical appearance.
The body builder also used steroids
in addition to the coconut oil for increase his muscle definition. The coconut
oil lead to the development of cyst inside of the gentlemen’s arm muscles
revealed by an ultrasound. While the gentle men also ruptured a tendon from the
steroids. After these finding the doctor suspected the man was injecting himself
and the man admitted to using coconut oil.
The mans doctor also pointed out how
“alarmingly, this practice, used for the short-term enhancement of muscular
appearance, seems to come at a significant cost.” Practices such as injecting
oneself with coconut oil may be common due to the fact that they are
inexpensive but they are also extremely dangerous and potentially
life-threatening. No one should take dangerous measures just to make themselves
look better. Everyone should put their health first by not only being healthy
physically but also having healthy practices in every aspect of life.
