What toxins in particular are not simply removed by the motion of blood plasma, metabolism by the liver, and filtration in the kidneys? Please expand on your unsubstantiated remark.

Although some are obviously more effective than others, a Dermatologic Surgery study found that some topical treatments really do reduce the number of fat cells in the skin, thus improving the appearance of cellulite. As Dr. Newburger goes on to say, ‘Cellulite creams work great to pull fluids out of the spaces between cells and induce lipolysis – fat burning in the layer just below the skin’s surface’. Other benefits of topical treatments include boosting the circulation and, if applied in a circular, massaging motion, encouraging the removal of toxins from the body. Applying the cream to warm, moist skin, for example after exercising or taking a hot shower, also aids in absorption allowing the treatment to get to the problem areas faster.

I think that if women in general knew more about cellulite and were more aware of what it is, then they could use this knowledge to their advantages for weight loss. Interesting post.

I have to disagree that there is a "right" and a "wrong" way, although I perhaps get we're you're coming from. There are almost as many fad diets as there TV channels and to think that any single approach might be a panacea for the obese descendants of savannah prowling hunter-gatherer apes is a myth. @Chidi Thanks for your input Chidi.

That's very, very rapid weight loss. I hope you're under medical supervision just in case there are nutritional or long-term health implications. Bev, half a stone in a week?
