Toxins and excess fluids are flushed via the lymph system. If the lymph system becomes compromised, waste products build up and the connective tissue becomes saturated with fluid. As fat cells (adipocytes) grow, they continue to damage collagen and elastin fibers. Fibrous bands (called septa) form around the fat cells further dimishing vascular and lymphatic function. The hardened fat deposits are the cause of the "orange peel" or "cottage cheese" appearance of cellulite.
