Other experts think hormones cause cellulite. Generally, it is a given that what you eat and drink will l make a difference in the amount of cellulite you have.

Exercise helps to reduce cellulite because it boosts circulation and restores a slim subcutaneous fat layer. Aerobic exercise that raises your heart rate is the best type of anti-cellulite exercise.

In order to reduce cellulite, avoid processed and refined foods that contain excess salt, sugar or fat. Follow a diet rich in fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, beans and legumes. These high fiber foods help eliminate waste and toxins. Reduce your intake of coffee, tea, sugar, salt and alcohol, all of which create a build up of toxins in the body.
