For many women cellulite is their nemesis, but are there natural treatments that could help to reduce the appearance of cellulite? Researchers have begun to uncover there might just be a few things that can help to alleviate this common but often unwelcomed skin condition.
Cellulite is very common so don’t think you’re alone! Up to 90% of women suffer from cellulite. It’s a skin condition that is caused by excessive fat storage in the adipose tissue, which exerts considerable pressure on the surrounding skin tissue and creates a dimpled irregular appearance. Although common in most women, some do suffer from this skin condition more than others due to genetics, diet or lifestyle. And although not harmful to health it can be a symptom of an underlying health issue that needs to be addressed. For example, detoxification might be sluggish due to poor liver health, poor digestion or a nutrient-deficient diet. Or there might be hormonal imbalances at play such as insulin or cortisol issues or estrogen dominance. Eating an unprocessed and whole foods diet as well as exercising regularly will absolutely help to reduce the appearance of your cellulite however, sometimes that extra kick is needed and luckily new natural therapies are emerging as potential solutions.
