Cellulite and Fat – What is it and how to get rid of it.
Our bodies are working machines that as we age, tend to get cogged down and not process our fuel
like when we were young and we become sluggish and fat. With an increasing build up of toxins we
begin to slow down, we become fatigued, worn out and become more prone to illness and lose our
ability to burn fat. Our kidneys and liver become sluggish and overworked. Excess toxins in the
body make our fat cells become enlarged and swollen. Numerous chemicals and toxins that have
been introduced into the natural environment can find their ways into our bodies through the air
we breathe, pesticides or hormones used in our food production and the water we drink.
Any substance that is brought into our bodies, either natural or artificial, has to be either absorbed
by our bodies or eliminated; or it will become toxic in our system. If the intake of such toxins is
more than our eliminatory organs (kidneys, liver, lungs and skin) can eliminate then we get a buildup of toxic substances. Excess food gets turned into fat and excess toxins get stored in our body's fat
keeping them out of the blood stream and from affecting more vital tissues. An overweight
condition or even the “skinny-fat syndrome” almost always corresponds to a toxic condition in the
body. This toxic overload can endanger our health. According to homeopathic, naturopathic and
traditional Chinese medicine, toxicity is the source of all illness. Western medicine has identified the
connection between many toxic substances and certain diseases and it is just beginning to really
understand the overall connection between toxicity and health. We are only as healthy as our cells;
without regular detoxing of our organs, our cells become submerged in toxins and we start to
suffocate in our own wastes. Like a river polluted beyond its capacity, we lose our vibrancy and
energy.
Dr. Oz’s show which just recently aired talked about many secret weapons to help fight cellulite.
One of his top favorites being a mechanical massage which rolls the skin along with kelp
supplements and cellulite creams.
Endermologie® is a mechanical massage that rolls the subcutaneous fat layers increasing blood flow
and lymphatic drainage facilitating the elimination of excess toxins, while stimulating and
improving overall cellular function. This therapeutic massage which stimulates your fat cells is FDA
approved to reduce the size and circumference of fat cells. This machine can target each layer or all
three layers of fat or cellulite depending on the individual person. Afterwards following regular
detoxing procedures like drinking distilled helps you remove the toxins, or you may opt to sweat
them out with a workout, or a sauna visit.
Other detoxing procedures include kelp supplements which contain fucoxanthin, a xanthophyll
compound which helps the body burn stored fat. Studies show that kelp can help facilitate a 5-10%
loss in body weight. Kelp is alto touted by doctors to help speed up a sluggish thyroid.
Cellulite creams, retinol creams and creams that contain caffeine do help target fat cells topically,
along with herbal or sea clay body wraps. Other detoxing procedures that doctors promote are
infrared saunas which use infrared radiant heat which is absorbed directly into the human body
thus killing toxins in the body, detoxing foot patches or ionic foot baths, vitamin/supplement
cleanses, anti-oxidant supplements, juicing, and eating healthy organic food and drinking natural
spring or distilled water.
