7 Myths about Cellulite
If you follow the beauty and cosmetic industry carefully, you would have found a lot of treatments and products being advertised to treat cellulite and you’d be wondering how to get yours treated. Cellulite is a big problem when you want to show off your legs, arms or your stomach. Cellulite is the lumps of fat that are visible from under your skin. They give your body a lumpy appearance and force you to cover it up even in the summer months. But before you jump into any of the treatments or buy creams, there are some myths you need to know about cellulite.
1. Cellulite can be seen only on fat people
This is a myth that is completely false. Your body mass has nothing to do with cellulite and even thin people can have cellulite on their arms and legs. Cellulites depend on the amount on fat that is stored under your skin and not on the overall mass of the body.
2. You can get rid of cellulite through exercising
There is also the myth that exercise gets rid of cellulites. Exercise helps you reduce weight, stay fit and tighten your muscles but it does not convert fat into muscles and cellulites can still be found even after grueling hours at the gym.
3. Certain foods help you burn cellulite
Another myth that has been doing the rounds is that certain foods can help you burn cellulite. It is just a myth and specific foods cannot help you burn cellulite. Especially new products and creams that claim to burn cellulite are just a myth and have no truth in the claims.
4. Drinking water helps get rid of cellulite
Drinking water is good for you, but don’t end up drinking more than what you need, because there is the myth floating about that water cures cellulite. A lot of water can only make you look bloated and not get rid of cellulite.
