Summary of Ashley Black & Joanna Hunt's The Cellulite Myth

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Sample Book Insights:

#1 The appearance of cellulite is not caused by fat, but by the connective tissue that surrounds the fat called fascia. This is why the ultrathin Victoria’s Secret models struggle with cellulite as much as the contestants on The Biggest Loser.

#2 The first myth is that we know all there is to know about cellulite. We don’t. It is a result of connective tissue, which is what causes the fat to pucker. If you change the condition of the fascia, the skin on top will become smooth.

#3 The idea of hand washing between patients was proposed by a Hungarian physician named Ignaz Semmelweis in the mid-1800s. He was ostracized for his ideas, and eventually died in an asylum.

#4 It can be difficult for people to accept the fact that what they have believed up to this point is wrong, or at the very least limited. We are all still learning.
