When a person under-urinates (e.g., 2-4 times daily) calcium tends to accumulate in the soft tissues present in various parts of the body.
34. Eye bag
When a person under-urinates (e.g., 2-4 times daily) calcium tends to accumulate in the soft tissues present in various parts of the body.
The tender tissues under the eyes too tend to accumulate this, resulting in the enlargement of the cells (hypertrophy), and that forms the eye bag.
The only way to prevent the eye bag formation is to make sure that the person drinks about 2 – 2½ L water daily, and urinates about 8 – 10 times.
If an eye bag has already formed, it becomes very difficult to correct it, for the soft cells would not easily allow the removal of the calcium oxalate crystal deposits.
However, if a person keeps on washing his/her face a few times daily with water, these accumulations may get disturbed at least to a slight extent, and then may get dispersed from the soft tissues to other parts of the body.
The characteristics of the Skeletal or Thin persons (Palaniappan, 2000) are such that they tend to (a) drink plenty of water, (b) urinate liberally, and (c) wash their face several times daily. As a result of all these, the Skeletal and Thin people living in the tropical countries almost never develop eye bags.
However, such thin people living in temperate regions may not wash their face often, and therefore, they tend to develop small eye bags.
Most of the obese people in the temperate countries, and some such people in the tropics tend to develop eye bags, and this is essentially because of (a) under-urination that leads to calcium accumulation, and (b) not washing the face, especially in the mornings after waking up from bed.
