Detoxification

diet may help you to reduce cellulite
by improving on cellulite related functions
like lymph and blood flow in your body. Following
an anti cellulite detoxification diet
means giving up on fatty, junk foods, and getting
plenty of exercise. In addition, vigorous massages

built-up in the body.
As we all know, there are no definite cures
to get rid of cellulite and all we
can do is to reduce the “cottage-cheese”
cellulite appearance as much as possible.
Cellulite reduction treatment products
such as anti
cellulite cream, cellulite
lotions and other types of surgical and
suction
procedures may work, but leading a healthy anti
cellulite diet regime is important to achieve
the best results of all these cellulite
reduction treatments.
Detoxification
Diet involves:
- Avoid fatty and salty foods like junk foods.
- Cutting down on the amount of fat; e.g.
grilled or steamed food is always a better
choice than eating fried food, slicing off
fat from meat.
- Drink plenty of water daily (at least 2
liters) to flush out toxins stored in fat
tissues.
- Eat plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits,
at least 5 servings daily.
- Stay away from sugar treats as much as
possible.
- Stay away from alcohol.
- Drink herbal or decaffeinated coffee instead.
- Eat plenty of fiber and wholegrain foods
– fiber helps to get rid of waste products
from the intestinal tract.
- Drink a glass of hot water with fresh lemon
the first thing in the morning to detoxify
your body.
- Quit smoking – cigarette smoking
contributes to the accumulation of toxins
in the body.
- Avoid unnecessary medication like diet
pills, sleeping pills, laxatives and diuretic
pills.
Healthy Food
for Cellulite Diet
- Eat more foods that are rich in soy, blueberries
and nuts.
- Add onions into your meal – onion
is great to get rid of cellulite.
It helps release water build-up from skin
cells.
- Make sure to consume nutrients in Vitamin
B, C and E, essential fatty acids, glucosamine,
calcium, iodine, fibre and potassium –
e.g. avocados, oily fish, bananas, bran and
oat cereals, pears, asparagus, broccoli and
such are all good sources of foods to treat
cellulite.
Foods to avoid
To successfully reduce cellulite,
you should discipline yourself to not overly
consume or at best avoid these problem foods
that causes cellulite.
Caffeine
Too much consumptions of caffeine may cause poor
blood circulation and has negative impact on lymph
flow, causing build-up toxins in your body. Sources
of caffeine are such as coffee, tea, colas and
other sodas. Try to limit your caffeine intake
to no more than one cup of coffee or tea a day.
Sugar
Cutting down on sugars intake will definitely
have positive impact on your overall weight management.
High consumptions of sugar can slow down circulation
of blood vessels and arteries.
Alcohol
Avoid drinking alcohol if you have cellulite.
Alcohol is a toxin that can increase fat levels
in blood, slowing down circulation and adds additional
burden onto the waste removal organs. The absorption
of certain fat burners like Vitamin C, calcium
and zinc can be reduced if too much of alcohol
is consumed.
Refined Food
If you suffer from cellulite, avoid foods
that contain salt or sodium, sweeteners and additives.
Fresh foods with organic ingredients are the best
to treat cellulite.
Saturated Fat
Foods with saturated fat found in meat, butter
and other full-fat dairies should be kept to the
minimum level in your diet.
Refined Carbohydrates
Try substituting white rice, sugars and bread
with brown rice, whole-meal bread and brown sugars
in your cellulite diet plan. Too much
intake of these high-level carbohydrate foods
will increase the amount of fat stored in your
body.
