- Continue to drink plenty of water
-Water, which constitutes 60 percent of our body, plays an important role in the whole functioning of the body. Drinking water helps to remove toxins accumulated in the body, lose weight and accelerate metabolism. Therefore, do not neglect to drink at least 2 liters of water a day for both your general body health and cellulite reduction.
- 10 thousand steps a day is very important
– Taking 10,000 steps a day helps you lose weight and reduce the appearance of cellulite thanks to the acceleration of blood circulation.
- Limit coffee to 2 cups
– Coffee ranks first among the causes of cellulite due to its caffeine content. In addition to the caffeine in the coffee, tea can cause cellulite formation with the content of the skin due to the sweetener, sugar, milk and cream added. Carbonated beverages can also cause cellulite with the intense sugar and caffeine they contain. For this reason, it will be sufficient to limit the amount of coffee to 2 cups a day or to drink a cup of Turkish coffee without sugar. You can reduce the amount of tea you drink daily and prefer herbal teas.
- Salt should not exceed 1.5 teaspoons
– Salt can cause edema and cellulite in the body by increasing water retention in tissues. Our daily salt need is 6 g, that is, 1.5 teaspoons. For this reason, take care to reduce salt consumption by flavoring your meals with spices and giving up the habit of putting salt on the table.
- Quit smoking and alcohol immediately
– Smoking decreases the oxygen rate in the blood and affects circulation badly. Smoking and alcohol disrupt the collagen production in the body, increasing the risk of damage to the connective tissue. As a result, the skin can become thinner and sagging and as a result, cellulite can occur.
- Foods that you should stay away from
– Foods with dense carbohydrates such as sugar and pastries can cause cellulite by converting directly into fat in the body and increasing water retention. Ready-to-eat foods can also cause insulin resistance by disrupting sugar metabolism in the body due to the artificial sweeteners they contain. As a result of hormonal changes, problems such as weight gain and cellulite can develop.
