Additional Tips to Reduce Water Retention & Swelling:
✔ Reduce salt intake – Too much sodium causes fluid buildup. Cut down on processed and salty foods.
✔ Drink plenty of water – Dehydration actually makes your body hold onto water instead of flushing it out.
✔ Exercise regularly – Movement helps circulate fluids and reduce swelling, especially in the legs.
✔ Eat potassium-rich foods – Bananas, oranges, avocados, and leafy greens help balance fluid levels.
✔ Elevate your legs – If your feet swell, raise them above heart level for 15–20 minutes.
✔ Avoid sitting or standing too long – Move around to improve circulation.
