To attack ! 7 amazing tips to smooth orange peel skin with your diet

1. LIMIT SALT

Salt is the champion of water retention and the poor functioning of blood circulation: it is therefore the favorite friend of cellulite.

De-sodium salt, without sodium, is the aspartame of salt

While the WHO recommends consuming 4 grams per day, we eat an average of 12 grams. Too much, too much. It can be replaced with sea salt or Himalayan salt, rich in minerals and trace elements, as well as with sea water in cooking. As for de-sodium salt – or “Bouillet” salt – it is in a way the aspartame of salt, which, unlike table salt, does not contain sodium but potassium chloride.

Foods highest in salt:

olives (8g/100g)
mustard (7g/100g)
charcuterie (2 to 5g/100g)
smoked fish (3g/100g)
bread (2g/100g)
cheeses (1.2 to 2g/100g)
canned vegetables, fish or meat (0.5 to 1.7g/100g)
more surprisingly, commercial pastries and pastries (1.2g/100g)
also beware of certain mineral waters (notably Badoit and Vichy)

2. MONITOR INDUSTRIAL SUGAR

White sugar provides "empty calories" without any nutrients and contributes to the appearance of cellulite. It hides in a multitude of foods and prepared meals, which are also eyed on labels under the names “glucose”, “sucrose” or “dextrose”. Beware also of sweeteners which also promote water retention. To replace it, we choose brown sugar, honey, agave or maple syrup, which are more interesting from a dietary point of view.

3. SKIP THE ALCOHOL

It promotes water retention while increasing fat deposits precisely where cellulite is lodged: thighs, buttocks, arms and belly. But alcohol also aggravates existing orange peel skin by causing blood vessels under the skin to constrict. In short, this is a drink that has no nutritional value. We zap.

4. EAT CITRUS

And yes: to fight against orange peel, we eat oranges! And more generally all citrus fruits and other fruits and vegetables loaded with vitamin C. Super anti-cellulite, it boosts the wall of blood vessels and ensures better blood circulation.

5. DRAIN WITH POTASSIUM

Present in bananas, endives or dried fruits in particular, potassium activates lymphatic drainage and decongests cellulite. The best? Brewer's yeast that is sprinkled everywhere to deflate: soups, salads, etc.

6. CLEARANCE WITH CHROME

This essential trace element destocks fat and limits the transformation of sugars into lipids in the fat cell. A real magic wand against cellulite. To be enjoyed in oysters, mussels, gray shrimps or wholemeal flour. Vegetable side: in dried dates, pears, tomatoes, mushrooms or broccoli in particular.

7. DRINK HERBAL AND GREEN TEA

Some plants infused in herbal tea have remarkable draining and/or venotonic virtues which make you "deflate". the body . In the slimming top, fat-burning green tea, diuretic hawkweed and meadowsweet, detoxifying dandelion or appetite-suppressing fucus seaweed, but also horse chestnut, butcher's broom and witch hazel that boost blood circulation. These infusions are drunk very hot to stimulate their draining properties.
