As I promised, in this article I came back to help you fight with laziness and excess fluid in the body. For this, I have prepared a list of wonderful plants, the necessary ingredients, a little desire and a little free time.
Didn't you forget what I mentioned about nutrition? Let's remember.
So, to eliminate excess fluid from the body, you need to make changes to your diet. Limit the consumption of salty foods, fats, carbohydrates, alcohol, canned food, smoked meats, mayonnaise – such foods retain water in the body.
It is very important to include in the menu foods rich in vitamin B and magnesium: beef liver, pistachios, beef, beans, pearl barley – this will help prevent changes in water metabolism due to nutritional deficiencies.
Before resorting to pills, I also suggest paying attention to several traditional and effective recipes that will help get rid of fluid retention. Traditional medicine recommends a variety of herbs to help flush excess fluid from the body quickly. These are St. John's wort, nettle, lovage, juniper, bearberry, rose hips, plantain, field horsetail, cornflower, wheatgrass and licorice root.
However, before using herbs, be sure to get a medical examination and talk to your doctor, as you may have contraindications to some herbs.
- Speaking of diuretic plants, I believe that the most affordable and effective way to combat edema is a decoction of birch buds or leaves. It is enough to drink it three times a day, half a glass before meals, and you will soon notice an improvement.
- Or, take 2 tbsp. of dried birch leaves, pour a glass of boiling water. Infuse for half an hour, strain and add a pinch of baking soda. Drink a teaspoon three times a day.
- Boil apple peel compote. Dried apple peel helps a lot. It should be prepared and drunk half a glass 6 times a day. To do this, take 1 tablespoon of the peel and pour over it a glass of boiling water. Infuse for only 10 minutes.
- In a glass of boiling water, put a large spoonful of dill seeds, leave for half an hour, and drink a tablespoon three times a day.
- Prepare a cocktailof guelder rose juice (1 glass), rowan juice (1 glass), lemon juice (half a glass), and mix with honey (150 grams). Take a teaspoon several times a day for a week.
- Add more parsley to salads. Parsley is a good natural diuretic and helps to increase the daily urine volume. In addition to removing excess fluid, parsley is good for bone health, boosts immunity, helps to reduce weight, reduces the manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and more.
- Bearberry is a very famous plant. It is considered a mild diuretic. For infusion, take 2 teaspoons of dried leaves, pour a glass of water and boil for 15 minutes. After you need to let it brew for 30 minutes. You need to drink a ready-made infusion before eating (5 times a day), 1 tablespoon.
- Burdock is not the last in the ranking of effective medicinal herbs used in alternative medicine to normalize fluid outflow. It is recommended to use it in the form of decoctions and infusions. To prepare the infusion, you need to take a dry crushed root (10 g), place it in a container with a tightly screwed lid and pour 200 ml of boiling water. Let infuse for at least 2 hours. The resulting infusion is taken three times a day before meals. A single dose of home medicine should not exceed 70 ml. The duration of use is 3 to 5 days.
There are still a lot of plants that could continue the list above. As always, nature is there to intervene when you need help.
