How do I get rid of cellulite?

2. Exercise and sweating

• When you sweat while exercising, toxins are excreted through the skin.

• Skin brushing (1 – 2 x per week) stimulates the skin to open pores so that the body sweats more easily.

• In this way fewer toxins flow through the lymphatic

system.

• With each deep breath and simple bending and stretching exercise, a burst of lymph is pumped upwards through the body to remove waste. Lymph (fluid) always moves upwards through the body in its own tubes.

• When lymph nodes are removed during cancer surgery, it can happen that lymph fluid builds up which then has to be removed through massaging.

Fortunately, intense exercise is not the only solution!

If you sit a lot, move your feet regularly to prevent swelling.

• Drink enough water. • Exercise.• Eat lots of fruit and vegetables • Eat less processed foods.

• The heart is the "engine" that pumps blood through the body.• The lymphatic system does not have an "engine" and can

sometimes become sluggish.• It is then that toxins build up and cellulite appears.• Move, stretch and take a deep breath so that lymph can "pump".• Make an effort to keep the lymphatic system in the body healthy.

More ways to stimulate your lymphatic system

Lymph edema (swelling) is usually a sign that the lymphatic system is under stress.Cellulite (orange peel), heavy bones and water retention are also signs.

Apple cider vinegar and Echinacea

• The malic acid in apple cider vinegar helps remove toxins from the body.• Apple cider vinegar's potassium content helps break down mucus in the body and it

helps to clean the lymph nodes.• Add a few drops of apple cider vinegar to your drinking water.• Echinacea is one of the herbs that helps relieve inflammation and clogging of the

lymph nodes and supports immunity.

Have you ever wondered how all the Aloe Ferox nutrients taken daily get to your tissue?

A fluid leaks through the thin walls of capillary veins into the tissue.This clear-to-white fluid is called lymph.Lymph carries digested and absorbed food fats and contains oxygen, proteins and all the nutrients that the tissue needs to nourish. Most of the fluid then seeps back into the bloodstream.

The lymphatic system is our body's sewage system and it removes waste.

How is waste removed?The lymph fluid that does not seep back into the blood vessels is now filtered of toxins and harmful substances, e.g. cancer cells and bacteria through the lymph nodes.Each person has about 600 lymph nodes spread throughout the body.The lymph fluid then carries away the excess fluid, the waste products and destroyed bacteria via lymph vessels.The lymphatic system in turn empties the contents into the 2 veins that occur in the neck below the collarbone.This process assists the body to maintain the proper fluid level in the body.The liver or kidneys then remove these wastes from the blood through feces or urine.What does the fluid level in your body look like or are your feet swollen?
