Cellulitis, the "Orange Peel" Appearance
Fight Cellulites by Living and Eating Healthy by T. Olgun
The "orange peel" appearance around the buttocks, hips and thighs that is caused by the thick, lumpy fat deposit is called “Cellulite.” Common causes of cellulite are obesity, being overweight, lack of exercise, congested and slow functioning liver, slow metabolism, toxic build up in the body, excessive consumption of fatty foods, artificial sweeteners, irregular daily meal times, and hormonal changes caused by pregnancy or periodic mensturation. To fight off cellulites;
1-Minimize your sodium intake. Salt causes increased water retention and this provides a comfort zone for cellulites to appear and grow.
2-Work out regularly everyday. If you have a –sit all day- kind of job, take short walks during your breaks to increase the blood flow.
3-Increase the oxygen in your blood by taking deep breaths. Take short walks in a park and burn the fat with oxygen in the fresh air you inhale.
4-Massage is very helpful in terms of increasing the blood activity in problematic areas.
5-Yoga will help you relax and rest your system which will help you fight off cellulites better.
6- A good night sleep is very important. You need to rest very well and wake up rested.
7-Don’t let your body get dehydrated. Drink eight glasses of distilled-purified-bottled-chlorine free water a day.
8- Let your skin breathe. Leather and polyester mix clothing is not healthy for the skin, wear clothing made of cotton, wool and other healthy fabrics.
9-Stay away from coffee and cigarettes.
10-Talk to a licensed health professional about the detoxification of your body. This will help you accelerate your metabolic rate and provide a healthier liver function.
11-Don’t eat butter, rich deserts, salad dressings, cream, processed meats, processed cheese, confectionary, canned foods-fruits and juices.
12- Eat yogurt, cottage cheese (made with skim milk), leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, radish, onions, cucumber, fresh vegetables, apples, plums and drink skim milk and butter milk.
13- Do the best you can to eat organic since pesticides, hormone
additives, colourings, and other additives increase your risk of cellulitis.
