Water retention — I hate it! Not only does it look bad, but it can also hurt. However, there are effective remedies against it. Let’s take a look at this problem and try to tackle it!


WR is an accumulation of fluid in the body. It is not caused by the amount of liquid human consume. In fact, the recommended volumes of water are 98 fl.oz for men, and 74.39 fl.oz for women. It’s much more than we usually drink!

Water retention is normal if you experience it at the end of a stressful working day. However, if you suffer from this condition on a regular basis, it might signify serious health problems, so you need to spot how often you have them and report to your doctor.

The basic reasons for water retention are a lifestyle, sodium in your bloodstream and change of hormones, as well as heart and kidney problems.

How to minimize the condition.

Immediate help: raise your limbs up — above the heart and spent some time in such position.

Long term effects:

1. Change lifestyle, move more. Walk, cycle, jog. Swimming is also a great remedy.



2. Change nutrition:

a. Try to consume fewer products containing sodium that contain sodium (canned, smoked, salted or cured meat, fish or poultry). Reduce the consumption of salt and replace it with herbs.

b. Cut the amounts of sweets you eat. Insulin can’t flush the body of sodium. That’s the reason why people with diabetes are at higher risk of getting water retention.



c. Try to consume products high in potassium. The perfect recipe is the mix of bananas, dates, and spinach.

d. Diuretics are also believed to have a good effect on reducing water detention. These products include parsley tea (you can add garlic for a bуtter effect) and cranberry juice.
