So, what do we do?

Fasting and dieting.

Exactly the opposite! Cellulite consists of specific fat cells that act as the accumulation of energy in the case of fasting which ultimately worsens the condition of cellulite.

Liposuction removes cellulite?

In light of the increasing negative effects, do not even think about liposuction. This invasive tretmant comes  with certain health risks and complications and often results in worsening of cellulite.

Anti-cellulite creams.

You must know, there isn´t a miracle cream! Topically applied skin treatments can only do so much to tighten the skin, making cellulite less visible.

And what about lasers?

Today, there are also new minimally invasive methods of removing cellulite with lasers. But with astronomical prices (up to $ 5000), such procedures provide only a semi-permanent solution, results last up to three years.

Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?

All of this sounds pretty discouraging so far, doesn't it? But it's not all black, there are some natural treatmants that are proving to be very effective.  Madero therapy is one of those methods. It is an in-depth massage with wooden rollers (madero = wood in Spanish), which has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its positive effects on stress relief, muscle relaxation and cellulite removal. A method based on ancient Oriental massage techniques was developed by experts in Colombia in the 1990s. It is the ultimate alternative to conventional anti-cellulite massages. In addition to lifting skin tone, madeerotherapy accelerates the lymphatic system and circulation, eliminates toxins and excess water, tightens the skin and helps eliminate cellulite. In order to make the massage as comfortable as possible and the results as effective as possible, the massage oil is first selected according to the skin type or specific skin need. The best choice would be a combination of nutritious and easilly absorbent oils (almond, sunflower) and circulating essential oils (rosemary, lavender, blueberry, thyme, camphor ...)

The procedure is done by repeating rolling movments. Applying this treatment to muscles, fat and cellulite stimulates the lymphatic system, thus releasing the body from the accumulated toxins excessive water and consequently cellulite.

For the best results, of course, you should consult a professional and educated person in beauty salons, but it is a good thing that you can do madeotherapy treatment very efficiently at home. All you need is a home  therapy kit consisting of a wooden roller and anti-cellulite oil. After r applying the anti-cellulite oil, with a roller you repeat the series of movements by constantly pressing the cellulite. Repeat the procedure daily for several minutes. And don't forget, without exercise and changing bad eating habits, no anti-cellulite treatment will be effective.

Constipation (constipation) can be avoided by proper diet and a natural laxative that helps prevent complications that arise due to insufficient and irregular defecation.

Laxatives (cleaning) promotes bowel movements, and the mode of action are distinguished:

Funds swell - attracts water and therefore increase the volume of multiple chairs. It acts on nerve endings in the colon causing intestinal motility and movement of the chair. Until the desired effect may take up to 1 day. In this way, act:

• fibrous substances
•      figs
•      plums
•      linseed
•      seed plantain
•      bran
•      cereal products (insoluble polysaccharides)

These preparations are effective for mild forms of constipation. With the use of such preparations should consume plenty of fluids because of the possibility of agglomeration chairs. In the application of fibrous materials, flax seed and bran may appear undesirable effects such as bloating intestines (flatulence) and a feeling of heaviness in the stomach.

Good compatibility allows use of mild laksansa (figs, prunes) in pregnant women, infants, nursing mothers and elderly people.

Agents which act osmotically - osmotic effect means that the water diffuses in a place where there is a lesser concentration to establish equilibrium. When entering hipertonic solution water diffuses into the intestine, thus increasing the volume of the stool, making stools softer.

• sugar (milk sugar lactose)
• sugar alcohols (lactulose, sorbitol)
• honey
• various salts (saline means)

Sugar and sugar alcohols are considered as safe means of opening the osmotic effect. The disadvantage is that they can cause distension (meteorism) and dehydration. People with lactose-intolerance should avoid sugar and sugar alcohols.

Hidragogi – act by inhibiting the absorption of sodium ions and water from the intestine into the bloodstream, and also support the influx of electrolytes and water in the cavity of the intestine. This increases the volume of stool and make it softer. This includes herbal laxatives primarily:

• castor oil
• anthraquinone glycosides (aloe, buckthorn bark, senna leaf, senna fruit, rhubarb root)
• synthetic laxatives (phenolphthalein, bisakodil, On-pikosulfat)
   

The effect of these preparations occurs approximately 10-12 hours after administration, and the sodium-pikosulfata 4-8 hours. The best time for taking these products the evening before bed, so you drive the bowel occurs next morning. Cleaning agents should be dosed so that stool is in order and formed 2-3 days.

Laxatives that stimulate bowel motility – regulate bowel movements causing the negative side of these agents that can suppress the natural reflex of the intestine. These include anthraquinone aloe, buckthorn and senna. In a roundabout way of acting and other means, such as lactulose.

Larger doses antrakinonskih glycoside causing painful peristalsis of the colon. Cause pelvic hyperemia and thus can cause undesirable gynecological bleeding. Therefore they should not be used during pregnancy.

Different resources – Here are resources that act specifically to release in the colon of CO2 gas. Here are resources that act Specifically this release in the colon of CO2 gas. Klistri that does not cause habituation of the solution with active ingredients that act osmotically or contain slippery, oily agents. Such an effect can be achieved and klistriranjem hot water.

Carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) is native tree or shrub of the family (Leguminosae), which grows among the maquis, olive groves, the woods and rocky places.
