Slimming Creams
A while ago I gave an interview for the Dutch Consumers’ Association Health Guide. I was asked if the cellulite or slimming creams on the market actually do what they promise. In the number from April/May 2010 I explain that through investigations carried out in France, the Netherlands and Germany the result is pretty much the same. Very few people noticed a difference and anti-cellulite or slimming creams are no more effective than a normal cream as they are unable to reach the deepest layers of the skin, where the fat is stored. So the best way to lose weight is by eating sensibly and exercising.
