How to Remove Cellulite Naturally

By Sara B Giddins

No matter if you are a supermodel or celebrity, the fact is everyone will get cellulite at some point during their life time. This is because women have a higher level of fat in their bodies than men. Even supermodel Tyra Banks has confessed to having her photos airbrushed to cover up her cellulite.

Most average women are not searching for an amazing body. What they are looking for is a cellulite treatment that will aid them in their quest to minimize the condition and look a little better for it. They desire the ability to wear a swimsuit at the swimming pool or that lacy number for their partners without being conscious of their problem areas.

The hottest selling cellulite products on the market today are those that contain natural ingredients. This is because despite average women wanting to look and feel great, they don't want to place unnatural or harsh chemicals on their skin in an attempt to lose cellulite.

The first step in a natural cellulite removal program is to increase your exercise levels. Many women complain about this, pointing out that even fit female athletes have cellulite. This is true but this type of cellulite is invisible unless you pinch the skin or stand in a certain way. The toned muscles of the buttocks and thighs keep the cellulite together and the skin taught.

The second step is to drink more water to stay hydrated throughout the day. Hydrated skin is more resistant to wrinkles and dimples, and the extra water helps the body to remove toxins from the body.

By adding plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables and wholegrain to your diet you will reduce the level of fat that exists under the skin. It is this fat that causes the dimpled appearance of cellulite.

Exercise and diet are important factors in cellulite reduction. You will also need a treatment that targets the cellulite directly. The most popular method is to massage a cellulite cream in to the dimpled skin on a daily basis.

When choosing a good cellulite cream you should look for a product which has natural ingredients like green tea, vitamin A, caffeine and brown algae. When used these types of treatments are considered to burn fat, make the connective tissues more strong, help the body to lose fluid retention and detoxify the skin.

The massaging of the cream into the skin and fat will soften the cellulite and make it smoother. The skin will become softer and more resistant to dimpling which is the main characteristic of the condition. - 16004
