Constipation, water retention, fibre and cellulite
Digestive problems such as constipation, irritable bowel syndrome and leaky gut syndrome can make cellulite worse, due to the increased water retention and inflammation they cause (low grade inflammation and water retention are two important aspects of cellulite).
Fibre, found in all vegetables and fruits, is beneficial for managing IBS, maintaining good digestion and keeping cholesterol and blood glucose level low, thereby contributing to good overall health.
Soluble fibre for constipation, IBS, digestive health, cholesterol and blood sugar management
Soluble fibre, in particular, is especially good for constipation, as it absorbs water and turns into a gel-like substance that creates softer stools and facilitates bowel motility, thereby helping with constipation, diarrhoea, abdominal cramps and bloating.
Additionally, all fibre, including soluble fibre, also acts as a prebiotic for your own probiotic bacteria in the gut, thereby further helping with IBS, digestive complaints and leaky gut syndrome.
The following foods are rich in soluble fibre: apples, bananas, berries, figs, oranges, pears , beans, lentils, peas, almonds, pumpkin seeds, avocado, broccoli, brussels sprouts, carrots, green beans, sweet potato, barley, brown rice, quinoa, psyllium and rye, among others.
Chia seeds, flax seeds, oats and cellulite prevention
However, the richest foods in soluble fibre by far are ground or cracked chia seeds, flaxseeds and oats. I have never seen someone fail to stop constipation and be able to go to the toilet within 24 hours when they consumed two heaped tablespoons of ground flax seeds or chia seeds with two large glasses of water once or twice a day.
Oatmeal is a popular breakfast for many people while ground flax/chia seeds can be added to salads, soups or yoghurt. Cracked flax/chia seeds are great for smoothies and shakes (must be added right before drinking though, to avoid thickening the smoothie/shake).
Furthermore, both chia seeds and flaxseeds (a.k.a. linseeds) are rich in omega-3 fatty acid alpha linolenic acid (ALA), which has multiple beneficial effects in the body, indirectly also helping with cellulite and water retention.
