Usually one anti-cellulite diet it must be balanced, varied and with low in fat, also ideal during pregnancy and lactation. The consumption of cereals, fish and vegetables is also very important.

- MOVE - It may seem strange but even during pregnancy the body must exercise otherwise the recovery after childbirth will be very hard. The activities that can be done will obviously be sweet and the most suitable are those to do in the water such as swimming or yoga or gymnastics specially designed for pregnant women.

- STOP SMOKING - Smoking causes vasoconstriction (the blood capillaries shrink) and thus reduces the supply of oxygen to the cells, including those of the tissues of the legs. Furthermore, smoking during pregnancy damages not only our health, but also that of our child.
- AVOID HIGH HEELS - Wear shoes with 3-4 centimeters heels. The higher ones make it difficult for blood and lymph to rise, thus slowing down the toxin drainage.
- MASSAGES AND ANTI-CELLULITE CREAMS - Starting from the fourth month you can contact an expert beautician to start a cycle of lymphatic drainage treatments (such as mesotherapy or ultrasounds), which by pressing on the lymphatic nodes dissolve the adipose accumulations and reactivate the circulation. It is also useful to take a look at the homeopathic products (perhaps with the advice of a pharmacist) or in herbal medicine where you can find a wide choice of natural creams suitable for your problem.

Unfortunately many anti-cellulite creams they contain substances that cannot be assimilated by the body because they are dangerous: the active ingredients of cosmetics that are absorbed can be harmful to the fetus, which they reach through the blood. Finally, above all, just after giving birth, our advice is to start using the appropriate creams consistently, at least in cycles of 1-2 months several times a year.
- PREGNANT SLUDGE- As for the treatments with the anti cellulite mud, many experts advise against them during pregnancy, other specialists do not prohibit them, but recommend that you pay attention to which sludge you use and the amount of iodine declared, because if excessive they must be suspended.
