How To Get Rid Of Cellulite Naturally At Home

How to get rid of cellulite fast and naturally is a question on many minds of women and even some men. First, and foremost, it is important to know exactly what is cellulite?
Cellulite is the deposition of water and fat between the skin and the subcutaneous tissue. It is caused due to the poor blood supply and the swelling of fat cells in that specific area of the body.

Cellulite appears in the body as dents or dimples . It occurs mainly on the thighs, buttocks, stomach, and back of the arms and it usually occurs in the body after puberty.

It can be caused because of a sedentary life, decreased physical activity, unhealthy diet, disturbances in blood circulation or hormonal imbalance, heredity, smoking, frequent and high alcohol consumption.

The term cellulite is rather unfortunate, since it is not inflammation but a deposition of “stuffed” fat cells in different parts of the body. It is known with different names such as, “cottage cheese skin”, “orange peel syndrome”, “hail damage”, and the “mattress phenomenon”.

Cellulite can affect both sexes, and is usually seen in women because they have particular types of fat and connective tissue in the body that is susceptible. Cellulite is seen to occur in 80 -89% of adult females.

How to Get Rid of Cellulite Naturally

1. Stay Hydrated

It’s a fact that if you aren’t giving it enough water to work with, your body won’t be able to effectively break down cellulite.  For this reason alone, keeping yourself hydrated is rule number one when it comes to getting rid of ‘bumpy fat.’  As if that weren’t enough, remember that there could potentially be a large amount of toxins stowed away in your fat cells.  When cellulite is broken down, any chemical contaminants that are stored there will be released back into your body.  In order to flush these toxins out, it is absolutely critical to drink plenty of water.

2. Dry Brush

Once you’ve got your water intake down, try dry brushing to eliminate cellulite.  This method is considered by many to be the most effective natural remedy for this purpose.  In some cases, women saw a significant reduction in the appearance of cellulite after only a month.  Dry brushing works by opening up pores and removing dead skin, thus helping to cleanse the body by allowing toxins to exit more freely.  This method also improves circulation and stimulates collagen production, leading to stronger and smoother skin.

3. Coconut Oil

The health benefits of coconut oil are many, including the abilities to increase metabolism, reduce hunger, and improve skin elasticity.  Use as a moisturizer after dry brushing for an immediate boost to skin health.  Also, try adding a couple of tablespoons of coconut oil per day to your diet to help you burn fat and improve your overall health.

4. Coffee Scrub

Many women have reported success with a simple mix of coffee grounds and warm water.  Use this scrub for ten minutes twice per week on areas where cellulite reduction is desired.  You shouldstart to see some great results after four weeks of regular treatment.

5. Birch Oil

Another popular oil for strengthening skin and reducing the appearance of cellulite is this birch cellulite oil – a mixture of birch and other natural oils that work in much the same way as juniper rosemary.  Apply daily after a bath or in combination with derma-rolling.

6. Rose Hip Seed Oil

A potent source of vitamin A and fatty acids, rose hip seed oil is an awesome moisturizer that also promotes strong, healthy skin.  When used regularly by itself or following your derma roller, rose hip seed oil promotes thicker, healthier skin with greater elasticity that can greatly reduce the appearance of cellulite.

7. Better Circulation

Proper circulation helps to prevent and eliminate cellulite.  Avoid wearing clothes with tight elastic bands that may restrict blood flow to hips, thighs, and other areas prone to cellulite.  Also, if you experience a lot of soreness during physical activities, tight muscles may also be restricting blood flow.  Perform stretching exercises such as yoga or Tai Chi to loosen up cramped tissues and improve your circulation.

8. Change Your Diet

Finally, you may need to change up your eating habits to help your body combat cellulite.  Consume less simple sugars and carbohydrates and include more fiber in your diet to improve digestive health.  Replace unsaturated fats like vegetable oil with healthy Omega-3 fats such as olive, almond, or avocado oil.  Trade out sources of trans-fat like margarine for lauric acid-rich coconut oil to boost skin health.  Avoid excessive sodium consumption (the recommended daily intake is 2300 mg or less.)  Finally, eat more fresh fruits and veggies with high water content such as melons, cucumbers, and dark leafy greens to increase skin elasticity and detoxify your body.
