Ceccarelli Fat dissolving injections

How does Cecarelli cause

fat to disappear

The combination of vitamin C and iron stimulates complex metabolic reactions in fat cells.  Calcium ions rush into fat cells causing the ultimate destruction of the fat cell through a number of reactions.  Effects are on fat cells only and no other cells are damaged.
