What you can do
Drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day helps to flush toxins from the body. Stay away from alcohol, caffeine, and spicy foods. These contribute to the formation of cellulite because the toxins they produce get trapped in the fatty tissue. Crash dieting doesn't help either, this actually increases the risk of forming more cellulite.
All saturated fats help build cellulite. These fats block the arteries and get trapped in the tissue as well, preventing sufficient waste and toxin elimination. So try not to eat to much saturated fat. Smoking weakens the skin by causing constriction of capillaries. It also damages the connective tissue that causes the dimpling effect of cellulite, too. Cutting down or giving up smoking can help.
Tension in your body, which can be caused by stress, blocks the tissue, preventing proper waste elimination and purification. Diet pills, sleeping pills and diuretics can all lead to cellulite; oral contraceptives, which increase the body's oestrogen, cause fat cells to enlarge, leading to water retention, which in turn leads to the body not flushing away toxins effectively, which leads to cellulite.
Lack of exercise can also be a big factor in cellulite. Excercising regularly helps fight cellulite. It improves muscle tone, circulation and overall well-being, helping to break blocked tissue and purify the body.
Body Brushing is another thing, apart from diet and exercise, that will also help combat cellulite.
