CELLULITE
*************
The term 'cellulite' was coined by French doctors for what they believetobe a special kind of lumpy looking fat. It usually affects a woman's thighs, bottom, and sometimes the upper arms and lower part of the abdomen.
Many naturopath, beauticians and manufacturers of varios cellulite creams, claim that cellulite is caused by a build-up of toxic waste matter in the body tissues, due to a poor diet that is high in refined and processed foods, and low in fresh fruit and vegetables. The resulting pockets of water, fat and impurities are said to give the skin a dimpled appearance, which is often referred to as the 'orange-peel' effect. This dimpled skin becomes more noticeable of an affected area is bunched up by pinching it around the edge. Naturopaths usually recommend people with cellulite to go on a detoxifying diet that includs plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, and to cut out tea, coffee and alcohol.
DOES IT REALLY EXIST?
"""""""""""""""""""""""""
While the word cellulite has been adopted as a simple term for this dimpled skin, the theory that it is a form of 'internal pollution' is not supported by any sound medical evidence, and only serves to provoke unnecessary feelings of guilt and low self-esteem in women. Most doctors and scientists agree that the dimpled fat is just ordinary fat, and that toxins have nothing to do with this entirely natural process.
The reason that so many women even slim women get cellullite on their hips and thighs, is because the female hormones oestrogen makes women acquire fat there; and they store more of their fat just under the skin's suface, whereas men store some of their fat inernally, underneath muscles. After the menopause, women deposit more fat on the upper parts of their bodies, but this tendency can sometimes be reversed by hormone replacement therapy (HRT) . And as women grow older, surface skin becomes thinner and less elastic, and the dimpling becomes more exaggerated. Cellulite is therefore a natural characterisitic of the female body and while it may be distressing for those women who have it , it does not cause any physical harm.
It is worth noting that the dimpling effect may be made worse by sunbathing, since excessive exposure to sunlight is known to cause the skin to lose its elasticity.
Liposuction, injections and electrical treatment are unlikely to have any lasting effect, but massage may sometimes help. Doctors believe that the best ways to improve the appearance of cellulite are to take regular exercise, swimming, cycling, walking and dancing for example and to go on a low-fat diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables. As rapid weight loss can exacerbate the problem, it is best to lose weight slowly.

CIRCULATION PROBLEMS
""""""""""""""""""""
The three major factors that cause circulation problems , including - HEART DISEASE - are smoking, high BLOOD PRESSURE and high blood cholesterol levels. Obesity can lead to the last two and drinking ALCOHOL to excess is also a major cause of high blood pressure. However, as they get older, many people who are not overweight and do not smode or drink heavily still develop high blood pressure and high blood CHOLESTEROL levels. Fortunately, a healthy diet can significantly reduce the risk of circulation problems.
Many studies have now linked excessive consumption of FATS to subsequent heart disease and other circulatory problems, There are two forms of fat : unsaturated (found in seed oils and fish oils) and sturated (mostly from animal sources).
Food high in saturated fats include butter, cheese and fatty meats; less obvious sources include sausages, pork pies, biscuits, potato crisps,ice cream and chocolate. Although an excessive consumption of alcohol and sugar encourages weight gain, eating too much fat is the prime cause of obesity.

In the right quantities no fats are unhealthy, and some can actually help to prevent circulation problems. Fats from oily fish such as sardines, mackerel herring, tuna, trout and salmon may help to prevent arterial blood clots. And replacing saturated fats in the diet with monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats can help to counteract cholesterol build-up.
There is some evidence that garlic and onions, and also hot foods such as chillies, can act as anticoagulants and may help to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. A diet high in whole grains, fruit and vegetables also helps to lower cholesterol, theit soluable fibre binds wiath cholesterol in the gut and helps the body to expel it as waste.
