Approximately 85% of women experience cellulite, which appears when fatty tissue builds up below the skin’s surface. Unfortunate genetics and poor circulation are often to blame for the condition affectionately known as "cottage cheese thighs."
Though you may have little control over genetics, you do have the power to choose a diet that will help diminish rather than exacerbate the appearance of dimpled skin. Whenever possible, limit the consumption of the following four food groups.
Sugar: Delicious foods high in glucose or sucrose can cause a spike in insulin, which promotes cellulite formation. Sugar laden foods such as boxed cakes, pies, ice cream and candy are on the list of those to limit.

Excess Salt & Fat: Fatty meats such as ham, along with an array of deep fried and canned foods contain an abundance of sodium that may cause the body to retain excess. Unnecessary water retention contributes to the development of cellulite.
Alcohol: Alcohol, especially sweet wine, liquors (such as rum) and liqueurs contain are often high in calories and toxins that break fat down into fatty acids. This process helps exacerbate the appearance of cellulite.
Processed and Fast Food: Your favorite fast food joint (McDonald’s, Checkers, Taco Bell to name a few) are stocked with foods that are high in sugar, salt, additives and saturated fats that form pockets of fat below the skin. Canned soup, jarred pasta sauce, boxed juices etc. all fall into this limited consumption category.
