Sleep and Good Food Get Rid of Cellulite

Women who are trying to get rid of cellulite with the help of low-calorie diets or fasting, make a mistake. The result is often just the opposite - recruited new fat that is deposited precisely in the form of "orange peel".

Generally the cause of cellulite is that the subcutaneous fat at some point starts to be postponed, roughly speaking, is not evenly but in the form of lumps and the whole clusters, weakly connected to each other. Combine, or, rather, to link these fatty deposits have muscle and connective tissue. Stronger than they, the fat is distributed evenly.

Muscle and connective tissue is, in turn, can not grow without the intake of a sufficient number of "building blocks" - proteins. In women, the nature of protein synthesis is always inferior to the intensity of fat. And when it's time starvation "fasting days", and even starvation (although therapeutic, although forced), then the gap - between the dissolution of proteins and their synthesis - is enormous.

In addition, any diet - it's stressful for the body, which is superimposed on the stresses of daily life also increases the breakdown of proteins. Why? Because at any stress, our body responds to the heightened release of glucocorticoids, hormones, blood, literally "eat" are the same proteins.

By the way, known to many a syndrome of "sticking with grief" - is an unconscious attempt of our body to prevent excessive power muscular dystrophy. In other words, when hungry, and under stress, your body throws in the "furnace" first of all muscle proteins. But with their lack of support and no elastic strands of connective tissue, fat deposits begin to grow chaotically, like clusters, which gives the effect of "orange peel".

Of course, nobody forbids to lovely ladies to spend time and money on anti-cellulite massage, steam bath and creams under the "fat burning" zones and pants. Harm do not, and positive emotions - a good thing. That's just, cellulite is unlikely to ever disappear.

"Just all of these procedures and cosmetic products practically does not affect the main reason for the formation of cellulite - the lack of subcutaneous adipose tissue protein of elastic connective tissue. - Said PhD Rinad Minvaleev.

The real anti-cellulite action has only one traditional method, which is in the national implementation is as follows: "After the meal, have a nap, so fat" ensued. " This is no joke, and centuries-old tradition, reflected in a Russian proverb, and the past centuries the test of time.

We already know that fat is not deposited under the skin "clusters" to keep his elastic strands of protein of connective tissue. Indeed, the "tie" her fat cells, preventing them from forming shapeless pieces sticking out of the skin.

What will it take?

First of all, building materials - proteins - should not be spent on fuel. Our muscles and brain want to get this type of fuel (glucose) in any case. And we can give it to them or with food or the body will take them out of our muscle tissue, thereby paving the way for chaotic buildup of fat.

In other words, from food to blood amino acids should be directed to the production of connective fibers, and not in the "flow" to maintain a high level of sugar in the blood required for starvation and stress.

To do this on a regular basis consistently perform two elementary anti-cellulite "procedure" - eat well and sleep well then. Excluding these two major damaging factor proteins (hunger and stress), we will find building protein material necessary to maintain the elasticity of subcutaneous fat. "

Elos: Get Rid of Cellulite in A Healthy Ways

With the onset of summer days, a woman clothed in light open dresses. However, some continue to wear trousers and long dresses, carefully hiding under clothes traces of cellulite. And the fight with the hated "orange peel" all means necessary, including starvation diets and operations. But there is more easy and simple way to get rid of cellulite!

Technology Elos, which is produced by working to eliminate cellulite, for the moment - the most recent scientific advance in the correction, recovery after plastic surgery and liposuction. The principle of correction apparatus of a family of Syneron - VelaSmooth and VelaShape, - is not only a treatment for cellulite and skin rejuvenation.

Apparatus and Vela Smooth production VelaShape Syneron Medical Ltd., Israel is intended to correct defects in the skin (cellulitis) associated with metabolic disturbances.

They combine the possibility of the simultaneous effects of four physical factors: the infrared light, bipolar electrical energy, vacuum aspiration, roller massage.

In devices VelaSmooth and VelaShape before synergies of infrared radiation and bipolar electrical energy. For better impact ELOS-factor on the subcutaneous fat (hypodermis) in the apparatus of VelaSmooth and VelaShape added vacuum aspiration and massage roller, allowing deeper into the main relevant factors.

The main advantage of ELOS-technology is the physiology and inability to influence the formation of pathological processes - that is, ELOS-technology allows the use of infrared radiation and electrical energy in doses that are unable to cause pathological processes in the body, while achieving the goal due to a potentiation of energy on the other.

VelaShape VelaSmooth effect and is based on four types of effects that are completely harmless. Energy absorption of infrared radiation layers of the skin leads to a local increase in temperature, which improves the further passage of electrical energy. ELOS-factor activates metabolic processes, enhances the differentiation of fibroblasts, leading eventually to the synthesis of new collagen, activates the microcirculatory bed and increases vascular permeability, which improves the removal of fluid, activates the processes of cleavage of lipids in the adipocytes (fat cells), reducing them in volume.

Vacuum aspiration and massage roller - in addition to enhancing the penetration of ELOS-factor in the layers of skin - also performs an independent role to eliminate the defects of the skin - is to activate the microcirculation of blood and lymph vessels, leading to an increase in tissue oxygenation and metabolic processes.

VelaShape VelaSmooth and help restore skin structure, eliminating the defects in the form of irregularities, raising the resilience and elasticity.

When correctly performed procedure, technique does not cause side effects and exacerbation of chronic diseases. Combining procedures with other physiotherapeutic methods and techniques of physical rehabilitation accelerates the achievement of this goal.

Legends and Tales of Cellulite

Hello, girls! Reading livejournal, came across a very interesting article about cellulite. I think that you may be interested. That's the article itself.

Cellulite is by far the most common cosmetic problem. With her facing women - representatives of different nations in all ages, regardless of income levels. A variety of tools and methods aimed at solving aesthetic problems associated with cellulite. Today, he is defined as the age estrogen structural abnormality of subcutaneous fat, which is manifested lymphostasis, venous stasis and fibrosis of certain areas. Despite the fact that this issue is, of course, is an aesthetic and does not fall under the definition of "disease" under certain conditions, pronounced cellulite leads to discomfort and impaired quality of life, and sometimes even accompanied by a breach of health status.

Psychological significance of the defect can be extremely high and often results in women of a certain personality type to depression, nervous breakdowns and BDD. In addition, there are concomitant somatic pathology: lipodystrophy and varicose veins are almost always form a vicious circle. Varicose veins are in the stage of decompensation and, moreover, exacerbates the severity of trophic changes in the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite is a 3-stage 4, in turn, may cause difficulties in venous drainage of the lower limbs, and promote the development of varicose veins.

It is believed that fibrosis and microcirculatory disturbance in the estrogen-dependent areas of subcutaneous fat (belly, thighs, buttocks) lead to disturbances in the processes of hormone metabolism and the mechanism of feedback contribute to ovarian dysfunction. According to the classification of cellulite on the histological basis are the following stages:

• 0 stage - the fatty tissue in the norm;
• Stage 1 - lymphostasis subcutaneous fat, often more pronounced in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle;
• Stage 2 - Chronic lymphostasis, venous stasis of subcutaneous fat, the deterioration of microcirculation;
• the stage of - chronic lymphostasis, venous stasis, deterioration of microcirculation. Local fibrosis of subcutaneous fat;
• The ST stage - chronic lymphostasis, venous stasis, deterioration of the microcirculation, widespread fibrosis;
• stage 4 - Chronic lymphostasis, venous stasis, deterioration of the microcirculation, widespread fibrosis, the local hardening. In rare cases, the unit formed by calcification.

At 0 and 1 stages of massage is used to prevent the development of cellulite. At 2 and the stage of massage - a method of treating cellulite and prevent its further development. On the ST and 4 stages of massage is a technique that can reduce the severity of the existing appearance of cellulite and relieve the accompanying aesthetic and during somatic pathology.

Despite the fact that the problem of cellulite are interested in public recently, in modern cosmetic folklore she confidently takes center stage and shrouded in a veil of mysticism and mystery. The people who create these stories, are women, without distinction of race and ethnicity. Fear, as reflected in these myths - of course, the classic fear of old age and death.
