Cellulite

Cellulitis is a very common problem that affects about eight out of ten women.

Cellulite, or in medical terms pannicolopatia the fibro-edematous, indicating an abnormal condition of the subcutaneous tissue, rich in fat cells. It's characterized by hypertrophy of fat cells, fluid retention and stasis of fluid in the intercellular spaces.
Under normal conditions, the fat cells (adipocytes) in the subcutaneous tissue function as energy reserve for the body. In the case of venous stasis of the circle, this reserve is difficult to use, it builds up to compress the blood capillaries, already fragile, who begin to sweat from their plasma walls become porous. The infiltrates of plasma cells, and over time leads to inflammation of fatty tissue with the formation of fibrosis of the subcutaneous tissue: the capillaries are further compressed and the drainage of excess fluid is becoming increasingly difficult. It triggers a vicious circle that this self-pathology, for real disease it is, although it is often labeled as trivial imperfections.

CELLULITE

Phases of growth

Oedematous: Creates an edema (an accumulation of fluid) and is present in adipose tissue, especially around the ankles, the calves, legs and arms. The skin is still tight and elastic, but you start to feel a sense of heaviness in the limbs

Fiber: a fibrous form, ie, increases the connective tissue that hardens the fat. It is characterized by small nodules and the skin "orange peel". Often there are dilated capillaries in branched form. These are all symptoms of poor oxygenation, vascular fragility and difficulty in disposing of fat
Sclerotic shape stagnation so that the tissue becomes hard and stem nodules of large size. The number of dilated capillaries, almost always increases. Of haematomas appear, a sign of capillary fragility. The skin surface is not uniform and smooth, but has the typical appearance "on the mattress" is cold to the touch due to circulatory, is painful when touched with low pressure and, if it is compressed, leaving a vacuum that disappears after a few seconds


CAUSE
Primary factors (sex, race, family):

Gender and race: being female and white are primary factors for the cellulite, because the woman prevails in the action of female hormones, namely estrogen, on specific receptors. Not by chance, the problem begins with adolescence, a period when there is a real hormonal storm that marks the passage from childhood to adulthood. Moreover, the typical shape of the white women "pear" means that there is an accumulation of excess weight in the hips until the knee, causing water retention and circulatory suffering.

Component Family: Some disorders of microcirculation often pass between consanguineous and venous and lymphatic insufficiency with capillary fragility is the antechamber of cellulite

Secondary factors (diseases, drug intake, hormonal factors, etc..)

The menstrual cycle: the appearance of orange peel in the pre-menstrual period is accentuated

Pregnancy: increases the level of female hormone estrogen, leading to an improvement in mood, but also an increase in appetite, the stagnation of liquids and, therefore, a worsening of blood flow
Normally, the cellulite diminishes after menopause, in the absence of hormone replacement treatment

Aggravating factors (lifestyle):
Sedentary lifestyle or lose weight too rapidly causing the collapse of muscle tissue and gave a visual of the situation worsening of cellulite
Poor diet, too rich in calories and foods high in fat and salt, leading to the formation of localized accumulations of fat and water retention
Posture with legs wrong and a degree or to spend much time standing buildings contribute to the aggravation of blood circulation and thus the cellulite
Dress too tight compresses vessels and leads to poor circulation
Shoes too tight or too high heels impede venous return and lymphatic and prevent the proper functioning of the "venous pump"
Stress and smoking are other factors that aggravate the condition of cellulite. Stress increases the level of hormones, while the smoke has a vasocostrittrice well as increased amounts of free radicals that worsen the microcirculation and helps accelerate the skin aging
Overweight is one of the factors that cause cellulite.

Service:

Diet: prevention starts from the table and any treatment is intended to give poor results unless it is associated with a healthy lifestyle and does not review dietary habits.

A balanced diet and adequate causes heaviness, swelling of limbs and cellulitis, can be prevented and treated. When choosing foods to be consumed in the diet must be alert to those that encourage stagnation and swell the tissues.
