It's a fact that about 90% of the entire female population has cellulite on some part of her body.  You may have never thought it could happen to you and you wake up one day to it staring you in the face.  You are not alone, many celebrities such as Cindy Crawford, Pamela Andersen, and Hillary Duff have admitted to not having perfect bodies.  This article will reveal some natural ways to reduce or prevent that cottage cheese like skin texture. 

Dieting alone is not the answer, but a well balanced diet and regular exercise will help reduce the "orange peel" appearance.  Be sure to consume plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and avoid fried foods and refined carbohydrates like white bread and rice.   Drink plenty of water and herbal teas to rid your body of toxins, limit your caffeine, alcohol, and salt intake, and get at least 30 minutes of exercise per day.  It would be beneficial to focus on the lower half of the body by doing strength exercises like leg raises, squats, and lunges.  Quit smoking cigarettes and stay away from second hand smoke which harm small blood vessels.  Also, try yoga, meditation, or tai chi to reduce your stress levels.  Treat yourself to an intense massage, finish your shower with a cold rinse to tone the skin, and apply skin firming cream.

By following these tips for at least 6 months you will be well on your way to achieving your goal.  There are no easy solutions in making cellulite disappear.   It takes focus and true dedication to see satisfying results.  It is also important to not increase your exercise routine by more than 10% each week to prevent injury.  Set realistic steps on paper as a reminder, be enthusiastic, don't compare yourself to others and most important of all just try to have fun!
