Some information about cellulite
Cellulite is Genetic - However that isn't 100% true but the fact is that the body fat distribution that we genetically inherited is what gives you cellulite. Now this all depends on how active and physically fit you are of course.
Females are more prone to having cellulite more than men. Aren't they blessed?! Our skin is less thick in our thighs and buttocks. The fat storage underneath our epidermis and dermis stores fat differently from men.
Now let's move on. How do I minimize the appearance of cellulite naturally? Easy. Here are a few simple ways to minimize the appearance of those unwanted dimples on your behind or thighs.
- Take Evening Primrose Oil as your daily supplement. It's rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. It's source of energy increases metabolic levels and helps in diminishing saturated fatty acids.
- Keep hydrated because your skin needs water to flush out toxins.
- Discontinue smoking. Smoking damages the connective tissue in your body.
- Did you know that caffine may also cause cellulite? Although 1-2 cups a day may not have an affect but it's a good idea to limit your caffeine intake if you want to minimize or prevent cellulite. Since caffeine is diuretic it may act as a contributor to giving us that orange peel appearance. Because caffeine causes water loss it can cause dehydration. Dehydration causes the body cells to lack water to aid in moving toxins and excess fats.
- Here is an interesting way to temporarily minimize the appearance of cellulite: Use coffee grounds externally on your skin. It is said that "caffeine helps to drain fluids form the spaces between cells and stimulates lipolysis, the breakdown of fat store in the cells."
Here's the home remedy to create your own coffee scrub:
1. Get a can of instant coffee.
2. Place at least two cups of coffee into a bowl.
3. Shower in warm water. Opening your pores will help the caffeine penetrate deep into your skin.
4. Massage the coffee grounds on the areas that have cellulite.
5. Rinse and you're done.
Repeat twice a week for best results.
