• April 24, 2024

The cellulitis It is a typically female condition and is due to our production of estrogen. In fact, 85% of women in the world suffer from it and to date there is nothing to eradicate it forever. We can, yes, prevent its appearance or reduce it once it has been presented.

Experts of the Laser Medical Institute of Madrid (Spain) reveal five of the best eating habits that we must comply to the letter if we want to reduce up to 50% the annoying and unpleasant "orange peel".

1. Reduce salt. It retains liquids and causes tissues to swell. For this, what we should do is consume less packaged foods and boost the consumption of fresh foods. A small trick to reduce salt intake without affecting the taste of food is to cook the food without salt and then, once cooked, add it.

In this way, the salt that is absorbed by the organism is much smaller than if we do it the other way around and also the food acquires better flavor. It is also convenient to reduce sugar and fats, since they require complex digestive processes that facilitate the appearance of toxins and degenerate adipose tissue.

2. Give up coffee and tobacco. TO Both are vasoconstrictors, that is, they decrease the diameter of the vessels, reducing the amount of blood that reaches the periphery of the body and prevents oxygenation of the tissues.

3. Decrease the consumption of alcoholic beverages. They favor leg swelling and fluid retention.

4. Drink plenty of water. It helps eliminate toxins and promotes the elimination of liquids.

5. Avoid constipation Constipation has a direct action on cellulite, so we must take foods that have fiber so that our intestine works well and eliminates waste without problems thanks to the increase of the intestinal bolus, for this we must know that there are two types of fiber: soluble (found in vegetables, fruits, legumes, oats and bran) and the insoluble (found in whole wheat products, wheat bran and corn and vegetables such as cauliflower and green beans).

The specialists of this prestigious medical-aesthetic center point out other habits and precautions that we must take into account to reduce cellulite:

1. Eye with contraceptives. the estrogens contained in oral contraceptives favor fluid retention and the appearance of cellulite.
2. Avoid wearing high heels and the clothes very adjusted daily, since these hinder the circulation of blood.
3. Do not stay a long time sitting or standing. Try to interject moments of standing and sitting. It is advisable to walk to activate the circulation of the legs.
4. Do exercise, since in this way you burn more calories while preventing the accumulation of fats and favor the toning of muscles and circulation.
