It also seems like a perfect application for the adzuki bean scrub. The massages help break up the fatty deposits and increase lymph flow. Lots of aerobic exercise are very important, as it reduces fat and boosts circulation and lymph drainage. Green tea is supposed to cut the release of enzymes that cause the body to store fat. Horse chestnut strenghtens weakened veins and boosts circulation (this is very popular in Europe). Gotu Kola triggers healthy collagen formation. Ginkgo biloba boosts circulation, as do foods containing essential fatty acids, especially flax. (someone back me up on this, please, I seem to remember that gotu kola is not the most harmless supplement) Eating a lot of foods containing antioxidants strengthens the skin, and if the skin is healthy and tight, the appearance of cellulite is diminished. Always use sunscreen: sunlight breaks down collagen and elastin fibers. It's a battle, good luck with it! ne ne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
