Diet to reduce cellulite
Massages and sports are valid allies against cellulite, it's true. In particular, dedicating oneself to physical activity means having the intuition of the importance of adopting a lifestyle that contemplates movement. As well as on the tatami, on the bicycle or on the masseur's bed, cellulite is fought when sitting at the table. The anti-cellulite diet must be healthy, balanced, free from long fasts or annoying sacrifices, calibrated on the basis of a nourishment corresponding to the authentic needs of the person.

Better to strongly limit cold cuts, spicy cheeses, fatty meat, alcohol, spices. Recommended are: yogurt, low-fat cheeses, white meats, lean fish and of course lots of fruit and vegetables .
Natural remedies against cellulite
With hops and rosemary, excellent adjuvant beverages can be prepared, balanced nutrition aimed at improving blood circulation.
Hop infusion
An herbal tea is prepared based on hop cones with the addition, if desired, of a pinch of mint. The liquid, filtered and warmed, should be drunk a couple of times a day, between meals, in the dose of a small glass or a cup of coffee.
Hops is made up of umulene, responsible for the bitter taste, and lupulin, with a preservative action: these substances seem to have an action similar to hormones, that is to produce certain actions stimulating particular points of the cells called receptors.
Rosemary decoction
To prepare a decoction with rosemary, you can use rosemary powder to boil in water. Alternatively, get some rosemary leaves and place them in a cup of boiling water. Leave to infuse for about 15 minutes and then strain. Drink the infusion three times a day after meals.
If you want to sip it in a moment of relaxation, we recommend a book to take back in hand, "Le Metamorfosi" and read, to stay on the subject, the fragment which tells the story of the princess of Persia Leucotoe, who seduced by Apollo, had to suffer the wrath of his father, who killed her for his weakness. On the princess's grave the sun's rays penetrated until reaching the remains of the girl, who slowly turned into a plant with an intense fragrance, thin leaves and pale violet-blue flowers. From this legend derives the custom of the ancient Greeks and Romans to cultivate rosemary as a symbol of immortality of the soul .
