Get Rid Of Cellulite Using Diet Modification and Exercises

When you bring up the topic about thighs, hips, and buttocks, cellulite comes to mind.  It is almost a normal condition for women.  These cellulites make you look unattractive especially in bathing suit seasons.

Cellulites are related to fats.  But fats are not the primary cause of cellulite.  Consider the following circumstances: It can be observed that no matter how fat men get, they do not have cellulites.  This is also true with obese children.  However, thin women get cellulites.

Why do women get cellulites?  Connecting the bottom layer of the skin to the muscle surfaces is a structure called fibrous septae.  Everyone has this.  In women, these fibers run vertically.  Aside from connecting the skin to the muscles, these structures also separate lobules of fats.  This lobule of fats creates the rounded appearance as it is transmitted to the overlying skin.  Men do not get cellulites due to the different arrangement of their fibrous septae.  These structures in men are arranged diagonally allowing the fibers to flatten the rounded lobules.

After knowing why women get cellulite, we are now ready to discuss how to get rid of cellulite.  There are number of treatments available on how to reduce cellulite (one of them is found on this article).  Some of them involve exercise and others are related to diet. 

One way to get rude of cellulite is to tone the muscles of the affected areas.  When the muscles in your arms, legs, and other part of your body become limp and flabby, cellulites will soon appear.  You must tone your muscle so that your skin will smoothen.  With a well-toned muscle, your skin will be pushed and tightened.  Keep toning the muscle or else the cellulite will manage to appear again. (Learn more about toning exercises on this guide.)

If you plan on exercising, target the lower body areas as these parts are common areas where cellulites appear.  Lower body exercises such as squats and lunges are helpful for your thighs and buttocks.  These exercises are easy to perform and can be done anywhere.

Squats are done by standing with feet hip width apart.  Lower your hips while focusing your weight over your heels.  Do not lean forward so that you will be able to fully benefit from the exercise.  Lower your hips just about two feet above ground.  As you reach this point, lift your hips up back to the original position.  Repeat the exercise 20 times.

For diets, it is essential to eat fruit and veggies.  This diet will fight off antioxidants that cause loss of elasticity and slow down your circulation.  Mangoes and bananas are known to boost your body’s circulation.

Food types that are rich in Vitamin C are helpful in getting rid of cellulites.  Vitamin C is essential in maintaining collagen in the skin.  Collagen is one of the components of the skin that is responsible for its elasticity and integrity.

With this treatments you are can now wear that swimsuit that you have always wanted to wear.  Your skin will now be free of those unattractive wrinkles.  Your smooth skin will surely attract attention.
