The role of healthy nutrition in the fight against the "orange" crust ^
Cellulite is a common fat cells, unevenly distributed in the space between the muscle tissues. The content of these cells consists of fats with fat-soluble slags. Most often they are formed in humans, if there are any disorders of bile secretion. It is common knowledge that bile readily dissolves fats and if this process is upset for some reason, fatty plaques begin to circulate in the blood, which can provoke serious poisoning of the body.
And just in order to get them out of the blood, the body and envelops them with a special membrane. That's why it's impossible to fight cellulite deposits without eliminating bile deficiency. Appearance on the body of "orange crusts" also contribute to fluid retention, caused, as a rule, by malnutrition.
Cellulite is a scourge of sedentary women, easily gaining extra pounds and not showing enough attention to keeping the muscles and skin toned. Therefore, get rid of this scourge can only be combined with a special diet with bracing exercises and cosmetic procedures. And dietary nutrition in the program to combat cellulite is used rather at the final stage.
Before you start to comply with the anti-cellulite diet, it should be well prepared. To do this, it is necessary to restore normal blood circulation in the problem areas and ensure the outflow of lymph from the tissues. This is exactly what the training and anti-cellulite massage procedures do.
As for the diet itself from cellulite, it should be aimed at removing toxins from the body, improving bile secretion and normalizing the water-salt balance. In addition, this food system creates a calorie deficit, which allows you to translate the body into a mode of consuming internal energy reserves and getting rid of fat cells.
So, the 5 main reasons for the development of cellulite:
- bile deficiency,
- slagged body,
- water retention,
- low-activity lifestyle,
- stress.
The essence of the anti-cellulite diet consists in excluding from the diet products that promote water retention, the consumption of fruits, vegetables and cereals, as well as a large amount of liquid. Fruits, vegetables and cereals are actively fighting cellulite deposits through the restoration and normalization of the intestine. In addition, they are for the body a source of vitamins and trace elements. The content of the menu of carbohydrate and fatty foods should, on the contrary, be sharply reduced.
Anti-cellulite diet also implies the restoration of the correct water-salt metabolism in the body. This is achieved by taking at least 2 liters of water per day. Observance of an abundant drinking regime also contributes to the washing out of toxins and wastes. You will need to eat more often( every 2-4 hours), but in small portions.
Active physical loads will have to be temporarily replaced with calmer ones, since the menu will be quite low-calorie. The daily caloric intake of the diet is calculated by the formula of individual energy needs minus 500-1000 Kcal. On average, you will have to limit yourself to 1200 - 1500 Kcal per day.

- black radish, barberry berries, grapefruit, dog rose, celandine, dandelion flowers, mint leaves, chicory - they all improve liver function and stimulate active bile secretion.
Thirdly, in small quantities to balance the diet it should be present:
- skimmed dairy products, lean meat, fish and seafood( source of protein);
- vegetable oils, seeds, nuts - a source of fatty unsaturated acids.
