Who Gets Cellulite, And Why
- Effects 90% of adult women.
- Weight gain can attribute to cellulite, but effects even thin women.
- Caused by fluid retention and fat deposits in the connective tissue that's weakened by fluctuating hormone levels.
- This results in a dimpled-like appearance that usually appears in the hips, thighs and butt.
- Occurs more in women as a female's connective tissue is less flexible
- Can be diminished in appearance with the continual use of a cellulite-targeted product like the Santaverde Aloe Vera Cellulite Gel that's been clinically proven to firm skin in 14 days.

Alternative Recommendations
In addition to targeted body treatments, it is essential to exercise, drink plenty of water and eat a healthy diet when trying to reduce cellulite.
- Weight training firms the muscle underneath the fat levels to help reduce the appearance of cellulite.
- Cardio exercise, like running, biking or swimming, burns calories to reduce the size of fat cells resulting in the reduction of cellulite.
- When dehydrated, your body stores extra water, which results in higher levels of cellulite.
- Although not proven, many believe a healthy diet high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains and low in processed and fatty foods can reduce the appearance of cellulite.
