How to Get Rid of Cellulite Naturally

Know about the most effective ways to get rid of cellulite- a problem plaguing almost 81% of the women above 21.

You are probably aware of what a cellulite looks like- it is a bumpy fat deposit that often appears on butt and legs, but may also pop up on your stomach, arms, and hips. Sometimes, it is quite severe while in some cases, it is relatively mild and only becomes visible when you pinch your skin.

When you look at a cellulite, what you are actually seeing are inflamed fat cells exerting pressure on the fibrous tissue in the surrounding environment. It then pulls your skin downwards, creating a telltale pitting that is making so many women across the world extremely self-conscious.

Despite the availability of a lot of products to battle cellulite, the problem does not seem to go away. Products like cellulite shoes, cellulite creams, and cellulite massage contraptions are supposed to help you get rid of this problem, but they are nothing but a waste of money and time.

“Products like cellulite creams, cellulite shoes, and cellulite massage contraptions fail to get rid of cellulite effectively”

Before you get hopeless, let me tell you that there are certain natural ways to deal with cellulite.

Lift Weights

This is more important than any of you may realize.

The more frequently you move lymph and blood around the affected areas, the more you can decrease the cellulite visibility.

Guess what is an amazing way to stimulate lymph movement and blood flow in your body? Yup, weightlifting it is. [1]

While you are busy lifting weights, your body muscles are growing. Every inch of your body is naturally tightening itself in order to give you a fuller, smoother look. This helps avoid any “skinny fat” physique while keeping cellulite at bay.

Include Omega-3 Fatty Acids in your Diet

Unfortunately, an average diet these days comprises of too many omega-3 fatty acids with very little omega-3s. This can promote the development of various types of problems such as cancer, inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular complications, and autoimmune disorders.

Another reason for adding omega-3s to your diet is their ability to stimulate collagen production. These little fatty acids also fight inflammation, leading to a reduction in cellulite.

 

So, you now have a solid reason for finally consuming fish oil supplements.

Lose Body Fat

Reducing the fat percentage in your body obviously has a positive impact on your cellulite. So, if you are obese, normalizing your body fat will help you a lot.

Even if you are not overweight, you may still try to get rid of the stubborn fat, the type of fat worst affected by cellulite.

Try eating a healthy diet and exercise more frequently to reduce your body fat and hence, the likelihood of encountering the dreaded cellulite problem.

Rely on Supplements

As mentioned before, supplementation with fish oil obviously helps keep cellulite at bay. However, it is not the only supplement you can rely on. There are two more supplements you may use but don’t count on them to be more effective than fat loss and weightlifting.

The first one is a herb known as Gotu Kola. Research has established that it boosts collagen production and enhances blood circulation, both of which can positively affect cellulite. [2]

The second supplement is horse chestnut which is extracted from the seed of a tree named Aesculus hippocastanum. Evidence suggests that horse chestnut can improve circulation while managing swelling and inflammation within the body. It aids in the reduction of fluid “spillovers”, particularly in the areas affected by cellulite, hence decreases its visibility. [3] [4]

Other than this, massage your skin more often, take detox baths, and consume more gelatin to have a cellulite-free body.
