Fighting cellulite with micromassage
We know that 30% of our well-being depends on genetic factors, and therefore on family history and hereditary predisposition, while the remaining 70% is at the mercy of our habits and behaviors.
Problems affecting the venous system could also be averted by adopting proper lifestyle habits. We often spend too much time standing or sitting, and also neglect our diet with quick, unbalanced lunches.
A sedentary lifestyle and being overweight are contributing factors to the much-hated cellulite. Furthermore, clothing that is too tight and unsuitable footwear hinder circulation, leading to stagnation in the capillaries and degeneration of adipose tissue.
Cellulite
This cosmetic imperfection is caused by an alteration of the subcutaneous adipose tissue, generally on the thighs, hips, and buttocks. It is a problem that also affects thin women due to fluid retention caused by poor venous and lymphatic circulation.
As Dr. Manuela Mapelli, Nutritionist Biologist, explains: “It is a matter of hormones. Estrogens promote fluid retention and an increase in fat cells, causing microcirculation to malfunction.”
Prevention can be practiced by wearing graduated compression stockings, which promote lymphatic drainage and restore lightness to the legs, combined with a balanced diet.
How to prevent and fight cellulite at the table
Cellulite is fought at the table. It is necessary to favor foods that promote the elimination of fluids, reduce salt, stay constantly hydrated, and regularly consume fruits and vegetables for their fiber and vitamin content.
