What causes cellulite?

Cellulite's formation is a result of complex physiological changes that occur in the subcutaneous fat
layer.
" Hormonal factors - hormones likely play an important role in cellulite development. Many believe
estrogens, insulin, noradrenalin, thyroid hormones, and prolactin are part of the cellulite production
process.
" Genetics - certain genes are required for cellulite development. Genes may predispose an individual to
particular characteristics associated with cellulite, such as gender, race, slow metabolism, distribution
of fat just underneath the skin, and circulatory insufficiency.
" Diet - people who eat too much fat, carbohydrates, or salt and too little fiber are likely to have greater
amounts of cellulite.
" Lifestyle factors - cellulite may be more prevalent in smokers, those who do not exercise, and those
who sit or stand in one position for long periods of time.
" Clothing - underwear with tight elastic across the buttocks (limiting blood flow) may contribute to the
formation of cellulite.
With age there is a loss in the thickness and tone of the connective tissue in the superficial fat layer
and the dermis. Unfortunately noticeable, flaccid cellulite is the result.
When we think of getting rid of cellulite, we often think of losing fat. We think of fat and cellulite as being
intertwined issues. Whilst this is true to some degree, there are other issues contributing to the
presence of cellulite. These include the role the connective tissue in our skin plays in cellulite, , the fact
that our skin thins with age, and the role our hormones have in affecting our body shape and where we
store fat (and hence, how predisposed we are to cellulite).
