THE BETA SWITCH: THE NEW STUBBORN FAT SOLUTION FOR WOMEN
What Is Stubborn Fat And
Cellulite?
Cellulite
(If you don’t have problems with cellulite, skip forward a few pages to “Stubborn
Fat” and start reading there. Otherwise, you’ll want to read this section.)
Cellulite is usually found
in places where we store
stubborn fat -- the thighs,
bum, backs of the arms,
and stomach. It is those
areas of skin that look
lumpy, kind of like cottage
cheese or the surface of a
golf ball.
Let’s get it straight from
the beginning – cellulite is
not a disease, an illness, or
a ‘condition.’ It’s simply additional fat. It looks different because of
the structure of the fat cells in the connective tissue of women. If the connective
tissue doesn’t hold in the underlying fat, it creates that lumpy look.
Underneath the dermis (the skin’s inner layer) and epidermis (the outer layer) are
three specific layers of fat. Cellulite tends to develop in the subcutaneous fat layer,
just beneath the skin.
Cellulite affects women more than men because the structure of the layers of skin
and fat is different in males. The subcutaneous fat layer in a woman is organized
into large upright chambers where the fat is stored. In men, these chambers are
organized into small slanting units.
