Why does CBD reduce cellulite?

Of every 10 women, 9 are affected by cellulite, an inflammation of the connective tissue beneath the skin. It is caused by a local accumulation of fat cells that has led to a change in the fatty tissue. It is also caused by the spread of a bacterial infection affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissue.

CBD alleviates the appearance of cellulite on the skin, as it has many therapeutic properties that allow this to happen.

So what are these properties that make CBD capable of alleviating cellulite? Here is an article to answer any concerns you may have on the subject.

CBD aids fat loss

In general, cellulite is due to an increase in the volume of fat cells that can be caused by weight gain. Note that the latter can be progressive, so we would say that a person suffers from adipose or soft cellulite, thick and painless. On the other hand, when the weight gain is unexplained and associated with swelling, it is called watery cellulite.

Many studies report that CBD can stimulate fat elimination and improve blood circulation. CBD reduces cellulite in this way. In addition, weight gain can be caused by oxidative stress ...; yet CBD is a powerful antioxidant.

Various other factors can lead to cellulite: a change in collagen fibres or epidermal thickness and poor diet. On the one hand, there are several CBD products that stimulate collagen production and help preserve the elasticity of the epidermis.

On the other hand, CBD is a food supplement that provides the body with the various nutrients it needs for its functioning. Thus, it will be able to counter the effects of a diet on the body, if this one is not healthy.

Also, an accumulation of fat can be caused by a lack of physical activity. The latter, often due to a lack of motivation, can lead to cellulite. Cannabidiol can increase your motivation to do sports activity.

In fact, it is able to stimulate the production of anandamide, a feel-good neurotransmitter. The anandamide molecule, thanks to the sensation it induces, notably increases motivation with regard to the prospect of accomplishing an important task.

Finally, poor blood circulation, caused by compression of the blood and lymph vessels, can lead to cellulite. In this case, thanks to its vasodilator power, CBD promotes the relaxation of the smooth muscles of the blood vessel walls. This results in the dilation of these vessels, which lowers blood pressure and promotes good blood circulation.

CBD has antibiotic-like effects

To treat cellulite, it is important to fight against the bacterial infection that underlies it. In this case, the use of an antibiotic is necessary. Also, generally, the infection that leads to cellulitis is caused, on the one hand, by streptococcal bacteria (of the Streptococcus family). On the other hand, this infection is caused by bacteria from the Staphylococcus family.

It turns out that CBD can act against these different families of bacteria. Yet many long-existing antibiotics are beginning to fail to do so. This is because some bacteria have the ability to adapt to negate the effectiveness of the antibiotics they are exposed to. In this regard, studies suggest that CBD is a bactericide that shows little inclination to induce resistance.

This may be useful in the treatment of bacterial infections, although these studies appear to be in the early stages. That said, CBD could be an effective antibiotic in the treatment of skin disorders. For example, it could help treat a bacterial infection to alleviate cellulite.

Finally, one of the solutions to alleviate cellulite is to adopt energetic massages. Two types of these massages are recommended to reduce cellulite, they are dry brushing and palpating-rolling. These types of massage help to stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation. They also help to drain and accelerate the elimination of waste products as well as fat cells.

To do these massages, it is possible to use CBD oils. This will allow you to have a nice relaxing time, while benefiting from the cellulite-reducing therapeutic properties of cannabidiol.

CBD has anti-inflammatory properties

When the body is infected by a potentially pathogenic agent, the skin becomes inflamed in order to provide protection to the human body. This inflammation can lead to skin irritation. A legal cannabinoid in France, CBD is a non-psychoactive molecule with powerful active ingredients. Studies have revealed the involvement of these active ingredients in the treatment of inflammation, proving that CBD has anti-inflammatory properties. Thus, thanks to these properties, CBD has the advantage of preventing inflammation as well as the irritation that can be linked to it.

In addition, CBD contains essential fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-3) that help to ensure the suppleness and elasticity of the skin's outer layer. Note that these acids, which are essential to the body but which the body cannot synthesise, nourish the cells. That said, a deficiency in essential fatty acids leads to various problems such as inflammatory disorders.

Also, a CBD product may contain GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) which is a form of omega-6 fatty acid. The latter is particularly effective in the rapid relief of skin inflammation. Also, CBD, a compound that has proven to be effective in eliminating toxins, promotes the formation of collagen. The latter is a protein found in all body structures, including the skin.

Collagen ensures the cohesion of tissues and organs. Also, it confers various properties, including hydration, strength and flexibility, to tissues and organs. Stimulating its production with CBD will therefore improve the health of the skin. This implies a reduction in cellulite.

CBD is a vitamin concentrate

On the skin, the epidermis provides water resistance and protects against moisture. As a result, it regulates and insulates the core temperature of the human body. Vitamins B and D as well as oxygen particularly support these actions of the epidermis. The B vitamins are involved in energy production and cell regeneration on various levels. Vitamin D is a very powerful antioxidant and considerably promotes remineralisation. This allows the body to restore the mineral elements necessary for tissue vitality.

In this way, vitamin D is involved in the fight against premature cell ageing. It also plays an important role in improving the quality of the skin. As for oxygen, it is not only an essential chemical element for energy production in the body. It is also important for the health of the body's tissues, as it allows for tissue repair. This proves the importance of oxygenation to the body.

That said, it appears that cannabidiol is a multivitamin compound that is notably high in vitamins B and D. In addition, several reports have demonstrated its usefulness in oxygenation, which it greatly promotes in the body. CBD contains chemical elements as well as organic substances that are useful for strengthening the epidermis. This explains why it is recognized as having useful properties for cellulite reduction.
