CELLULITE & HEALTHY SKIN: IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE BOTH?

 

Nowadays, women are bombarded by information on how to achieve great-looking skin without cellulite. Products such as collagen, biotin, vitamin C, and Gotu Kola are hailed as the ‘Must Have’ products for healthy skin. Many women are willing to try almost anything to get rid of cellulite while maintaining healthy skin. With so many offers on the market, one must ask themselves if these miracle products can help reduce the appearance of cellulite alongside skin health. Let's look at a few.

 

What is Collagen?

Collagen is a protein in the body that maintains healthy bones, muscle, skin, nails, and hair. It also aids in helping your blood to clot. There are 16 types of collagen, and each one serves a vital role in the body. Here we only look at the central 4:

Type 1: Provides structure to skin, bones, and hair.

Type 2: This one is found in elastic cartilage and assists by cushioning your joints.

Type 3: This one supports muscles, organs, and arteries.

Type 4: Assists with filtration and is found in the layers of your skin.

 

The older you get, the lower the quality and quantity your body produces. The most prominent physical feature of lack of collagen will occur in the skin. Too much sugar and sun can harm the development of collagen in the body. Smoking is also a culprit to watch out for. According to MotherKindCo, the benefits of collagen include:

1. Stronger hair, nails, and skin
2. Helps with the reduction of cellulite, stretch marks, and wrinkles
3. Helps with better Gut health
4. Reduces inflammation
5. Stronger Bones, Joints & Cartilage

 

What is Biotin?

Biotin is also known as vitamin H and helps the body convert food into energy. It helps keep your skin, hair, eyes, liver, and nervous system healthy. Biotin supplements should be taken with care as a biotin deficiency does not often occur due to it being quickly absorbed in food such as egg yolk, organ meat such as liver, nuts, and whole grains. Biotin can assist with improving skin, hair, and nail health as it acts as a helper for women who suffer from other deficiencies such as iron. It doesn't directly reduce the appearance of cellulite but can help with skin health. 

 

What is Gotu Kola?

Native to the Chinese, Indonesians, and Indians, Gotu Kola is a medicinal plant best known for its healing properties on the skin. Gotu Kola improves elasticity and thickens the skin while also providing the body with improved cognitive function and relaxation. This herb stimulates collagen synthesis and can provide anti-aging properties and promote skin health when combined with vitamin C. 

 

What is Vitamin C?

Vitamin C is good for strengthening your skin and helps the body rebuild lost collagen. The vitamin also helps repair red blood cells and acts as an antioxidant, keeping your skin smooth. Besides oranges, red and green sweet peppers, kiwi, and strawberries, vitamin C supplements can also assist with iron absorption.
