Does pineapple really eliminate cellulite? Last spring I bought an anticellulite cream, but the results weren’t ideal because I didn’t have time to apply it every day. Now I’m hearing that a pineapple diet can eliminate cellulite. It sounds so easy—does it work?
Pineapple can smooth away cellulite, thanks to its stores of bromelain. This enzyme dissolves the trapped waste that slows the movement of lymph fluid and leads to puckered areas on the skin’s surface. Bromelain also has been shown to neutralize bradykinins, polypeptides that promote fat storage on the thighs. A 24-hour cleanse is an easy way to reap the benefits of pineapple. To do: Consume your fill of fresh raw pineapple for one day while drinking plenty of water. After doing this cleanse one day a week for two consecutive weeks, you should notice a reduction in cellulite.
