Orange Peel Skin and Cottage Cheese Thighs - Taking Action

  • The first step is to prepare yourself to undergo an intensive programme to detoxify your body and prevent the further build-up of toxins. 
  • Eat healthy. Cut out the fat and the salt. Eat high fibre fruits and vegetables and drink plenty of water. Avoid oily, fried foods. Cut down on tea, coffee, alcohol and smoking. But remember the idea is to purify the body, not to lose weight. 
  • Exercise is important as it stimulates blood circulation and keeps your metabolism running smoothly. It also tones the muscles and firms up the tissue.
  • Some people have found that a daily routine of massage and brushing the skin with a loofah helps as it stimulates circulation. 
  • You will also find numerous anti-cellulite creams in the market, but there is a question mark about how effective they really are. They usually contain drugs that are supposed to break down the fat molecules into fatty acids that will eventually be excreted through the bloodstream. However, it is doubtful if these creams can permeate human skin merely by rubbing them onto the surface. 
  • Then there's always the celebrity option - liposuction. However, this is not very advisable. It is expensive, involves invasive surgery and there's no guarantee that the cellulite won't just come back in a while. 
  • Of course, there is also the option of doing nothing at all, if you're of the laissez-faire school of thought. Cellulite's not a life-threatening condition. So, your thighs are not your most attractive feature. Never mind, wear trousers or a long skirt.
