9 pieces fashion bad for health

And what if our favorite pieces were not as harmless as they seem? Slim jeans , heels, flip-flops: a review of clothes and accessories to consume with moderation.

• The heels

This is a scoop for people: the (too) high heels have the annoying disadvantage of ruining our backs, in addition to not being - let's be honest - downright comfortable. And for good reason, by treading the bitumen of the top of our stilettos with the reduced stability, we weaken de facto ankles, legs and by extenso our spine. And we are not talking about horns and calluses, which in addition to being unsightly can be very painful.

• Slim jeans

Essentially ultra-skinny , slim and skinny jeans have the unfortunate tendency to slow the blood flow in the legs and by extension to make them substantially swell. In 2015, an Australian girl even had to be rushed to hospital after being too crouched while wearing one of these second skin jeans. If it is an extreme case, it at least has the merit of highlighting the dangers of pants too tight.

• Large handbags
  

At first harmless, our XXL handbag can be harmful for our frail shoulders and back. In question ? Our annoying tendency to fill it up and stuff it "all our life" in it, even if it makes it heavier than a bag of bricks. So do the test by weighing yourself with it and you will see that we may not exaggerate so much.

• The string
  

Put KO by the high pants , the string posed indeed some gynecological health concerns to string aficionados, especially women most prone to urinary and vaginal infections for technical reasons relatively obvious. And for good reason, this type of underwear promotes micro-cuts and the proliferation of bacteria, especially when they are worn with ultra-tight pants. What to reconcile with our panties Petit Bateau of yesteryear.

• High waist jeans

Brought up to date, high-waisted jeans are still not recommended. Generally compressing the belly, it can cause abdominal cramps and impede breathing, hence the importance of choosing his mom jeans to the right size, even to make a cross on the dream arch that he seems to promise.

• The flip-flops

Combined with paid holidays, flip flops can be a serious opponent to our (good) health. Offering no support and forcing us in some way to curl our toes so as not to lose them, these beach shoes invariably change the way we walk. Worse, flip flops would be real nests for bacteria. What to look at his Havaïanas from another eye.

• Cheap fashion
  

As tempting as it may be, fast-fashion can be very harmful to health. Whether for the treatment of materials or their coloring, these attractively priced clothes are full of toxic chemicals, often classified as endocrine disruptors and other carcinogenic compounds. In addition, these products can be the cause of allergic reactions and irritations.
